There's no fool like a determined fool!
Decided that I liked my dead yeast bread so what the heck, let's bake another!
Then had a thought. I previously used the yeast from the top of the jar where it was more exposed to air in the jar. Hmmm. What if I try from the bottom of the jar instead? 🤔
Quick test with 105°F water and a touch of sugar.
Eureka! It's Alive!
Top 1cm now removed from jar and tossed. Now I can wait for yeast to go on sale again.
