Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast that is commonly used as a vegan protein source. It is made from the same strain of yeast used to make bread, beer, and wine, but is heated and dried to remove its leavening properties. The resulting product is a nutritional powerhouse, packed with 51% protein, making it an excellent addition to a balanced diet. The small flakes of nutritional yeast are ideal for sprinkling on pasta, in sauces, creams, and even popcorn, adding a cheesy flavor without the use of dairy. With a great taste and smell, nutritional yeast is a versatile ingredient that can be used in cooking and baking. It is presented in 100% recyclable plastic, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
