Works great for bread and pizza
Good yeast, served me well for lots of bread and pizza dough. Doesn't seem to need the full 1.5 - 2 hours to rise either when you use warm water.

Excellent - no issues with bread not rising
Have used this yeast in my Panasonic breadmaker many times with no issues at all.

Bread maker loaves didn't rise
Using a Panasonic breadmaker, baked two separate loaves with McDougalls yeast but both loaves didn't rise. Never had an problems using Hovis or Allinson yeast so I will avoid McDougalls from now on.

DOES THE JOB!
This yeast is perfectly OK and is no different to use than Allinsons but it is cheaper!

Nathan Outlaw's Fish and Chips
Fish maestro Nathan Outlaw works his magic with this remarkable take on a quintessential British dish, which bears little resemblance to the version you're likely to pick up at the local chippie. If you can't find hake, cod or haddock work just as well.

Really reliable
I find this yeast easy to use and produces consistent results for bread, pizzas and hot cross buns. I bake all my own bread - wholemeal, wholegrain, white, seedy, tomato, onion - so I need a reliable product.
