It’s National Microorganism Day! 🦠🎉🥳DID YOU KNOW ⬇️📍Bakers yeast, or Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is considered man’s oldest industrial microorganism.📍Hieroglyphics suggest ancient Egyptian civilizations were using yeast and the process of fermentation to produce alcohol and leaven bread over 5,000 years ago. 😱📍It wasn’t until the invention of the microscope, followed by Louis Pasteur’s discovery in the 1860’s, that yeast was identified as a living organism. 📍One sachet of Red Star Yeast contains BILLIONS of yeast cells. 📍Yeast is naturally occurring on the skin of fruits and berries, but can also be found in the soil and air. #bakers #microorganisms #microorganism #fungi #bakersyeast #homebaker #breadbaking #redstaryeast #lesaffre

ᴄʀᴜꜱᴛʏ ᴄʀᴀɴʙᴇʀʀʏ ɴᴜᴛ ʙʀᴇᴀᴅ A rustic no knead loaf chock full of cranberries and chopped walnuts. Recipe link in our profile @redstaryeastINGREDIENTS ⬇️3 cups plus 2 tablespoons (390g) AP flour (plus more)2 teaspoons coarse sea salt1/2 teaspoon Platinum Yeast3/4 cup (95g) chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans )3/4 cup (105g) dried cranberries 1 tablespoon honey1 1/2 cups (360ml) warm water (about 95°F/35°C)Instructions1. Stir the first 6 ingredients together in a large bowl. Stir in warm water. The dough will be pretty sticky– don`t add more flour– you want a sticky dough. Gently shape into a ball as best you can. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Set on the counter at room temperature and allow to rise for 12-18 hours. The dough will double in size, stick to the sides of the bowl, and be covered in air bubbles.2. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and, using lightly floured hands, shape into a ball as best you can. Doesn`t have to be perfect! Transfer dough to a large piece of parchment paper. (Large enough to fit inside 6-qt pot, and one that is safe under high heat.)3. Using a very sharp knife, gently score an X into the top. Cover dough lightly with plastic wrap and leave alone for 30 minutes.4. During this 30 minutes, preheat the oven to 475°F (246°C). (Yes, very hot!) Place your dutch oven (with the lid) or heavy duty pot inside for 30 minutes so that it`s extremely hot before the dough is placed inside. After 30 minutes, remove the dutch oven from the oven and carefully place the dough inside by lifting it up with the parchment paper and sticking it all– the parchment paper included– inside the pot. Cover with lid.5. Bake for 25 minutes with lid on. Carefully remove the lid and continue baking for 8-10 more minutes until bread is golden brown. Remove pot from the oven, remove the bread from the pot, and allow to cool on the counter for 30 minutes before breaking/slicing/serving.6. Cover and store leftover bread at room temperature for up to 1 week.Created by @sallysbakebloghttps://bit.ly/3SVsMmM#rusticbread #nokneadbread #nokneaddough #cranberrybread #homebaker #freshbread #redstaryeast #lesaffre
