Wow. Is it tomorrow already? Well, I am a beginner at this video thing, so a little time lapsed photography. Welcome back. I’m going to show you what that yeast looks like today.

Test Results

Okay, here’s the two cups and you can see the one on the right is just a bubbling and foaming away. Which means your yeast is active. The one on the left, all the yeast has settled on the bottom and nothing is happening. Now this is only a 20 degree change in temperature. It is a very subtle thing and I suppose I could do a series of experiments to find out exactly what temperature is going to kill your yeast.

Blooming Yeast

But again it only takes an Instant Read Thermometer and you know that you have the right temperature. As I said, the recipe calls for 110 degrees and when you have the right temperature you have the best product. Look at that yeast go. It looks like it is growing right before your eyes.

Time To Make The Dinner Rolls…

Okay I hadn’t really thought about what I was going to do with the yeast. One package of yeast was sacrificed for this experiment. So in the spirit of conservation and good cooking, I am going to make dinner rolls. Literally, tomorrow, or maybe I’ll shoot the video later and post it tomorrow, you get to see what they look like.

Again, keep those questions coming. It has been great talking to everyone and I am really enjoying myself showing you a little bit about food here and there. So, come on back. Like I said, opt in at the bottom, on the left. Join our community. Go to the blog which is www.chefmartyrich.com/blog and post a question. I will get a video out to you as soon as I can.

Have a great day. See you tomorrow.
