A note about ascorbic acid: Just yesterday I purchased a jar of each Active Dry Yeast and Quick Rise Yeast. I'm new to bread making and wanted to have which ever type was called for in any recipe that I might wish to use. There is only one ingredient difference between the two types - that of the addition of Ascorbic Acid in the Quick Rise Yeast. Interesting to have wondered about this difference just yesterday, and today I found this post. Life is Good.
