One source said one thing and another one something completely different. Who can you trust?
In any case, I will try again, with unrefrigerated fresh yeast. I hope this will solve the problem. Will keep you posted.
Meanwhile I'm reading Cookwise and I'll read In The Sweet Kitchen again. I can't believe I didn’t check this book for information on yeast since I read it from cover to cover when I first got it and it covers just about everything.
For those of you who are not familiar with this book, it is a fantastic book, among the best in my opinion. It's over 600 pages. About 350 pages are a discussion on ingredients and there role in baking. She touches everything from fruits to yeast, sugar, nuts. Regan Daley won the IACP cookbook of the year award and the IACP award for best Bread, Other Baking and Sweets Category.
Thanks for all your help!
