An essential ingredient for bakers, yeast has a limited shelf life that varies depending on the form. Dry yeast keeps for up to two years when kept sealed, but once opened, its viability decreases, and it should be utilized within four months. Its life can be prolonged by properly storing it in a cold, dry spot or in the refrigerator.

Use fresh yeast within a few weeks, as it is more perishable. Before using yeast, check for activity to guarantee proper fermentation. This will keep your baked items light and fluffy and your breads rising nicely, making all of your baking endeavors deliciously successful.
