Organic Yeast in Baking

Yeast has been used for thousands of years to make bread. Like many other foods the bread production became more industrialized. But in the recent years the trend that consumers ask for more healthy and organic bakery options has sustained and Lallemand developed an organic baker’s yeast to offer an ingredient for organic bakery products.

Our baker’s yeast is designed for a wide range of bakery applications including gluten free products.

The performance of the yeast is tested in our test bakeries in Europe and North America. We recommend allowing for slightly longer proofing times which results in more flavorful bread.

Organic yeast products and their versatile functions in savory and health food

Organic options are increasing in the food aisles and organic yeast can be an ingredient for the short ingredient lists for many of these. Nutritional yeast has been used for decades in vegetarian and health food and is sought after for its high quality protein, fibers and B-vitamins. Vegetarians use the pure yeast flakes to sprinkle on salad or muesli to get a more flavorful meal and nutritional benefits.

Taste and aroma of nutritional yeast and yeast extract vary depending on the product from slightly bready and savory to toasted notes. They help bring out the taste of various savory foods such as vegan products, meat replacers, soups, sauces and seasonings for snacks.

Last but not least organic nutritional yeast can also play a role in the functionality of savory food products by increasing waterbinding and emulsifying capacity.

Organic wine yeast for organic wine

The general trend for organic products does not stop for wine, in fact organic wine has seen an increase in the last years. Since 2012 organic wine can be labeled as such also in the EU.

Our organic wine yeast strains can be used in a selection of wines. Please consult Lallemand oenology for an overview what is available for your wine in your country.
