What’s Nutritional Yeast?

Nutritional yeast is deactivated yeast used as an ingredient in recipes or as a condiment. It has a strong flavor that is described as nutty, cheesy, or creamy. It is a complete protein and source of vitamins, especially B-complex. It’s naturally low in fat and sodium, free of sugar, dairy, and gluten and sometimes fortified with Vitamin B12. Flakes are much preferred over powder. Good brands are Red Star, Bob’s Red Mill, Bragg and KAL. Find them in the health food store grocery aisle or Amazon's Grocery & Gourmet Food department. Refrigerate after opening.
