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

    This is a very impressive bread for minimal time and effort. I've never had hard dough bread in Jamaica, but I believe the author when she says she worked hard to perfect the recipe. It's great.
