    Instant yeast appears similar to active dry yeast, but has smaller granules with substantially higher percentages of live cells per comparable unit volumes. It is more perishable than active dry yeast, but also does not require rehydration, and can usually be added directly to all but the driest doughs. Instant yeast generally has a small amount of ascorbic acid added as a preservative. (Wikipedia) Buy Now

    The dough was crumbly and almost shortbread like. Not quite the soft tender crumb I was hoping for. It also needed a bit more salt. I used the feta parsley filling option and two cups was too much. I only needed 1.25 cups. We enjoy these but probably won't repeat. Would rather try other recipes and find that perfect tender crumb.
