Description

Nutritional Yeast – 100 g

Product Features: Nutritional yeast, known in Turkish as “Besin Mayası,” is one of the most important types of yeast and has been used since ancient times in bread-making. Its Latin name is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and it requires vitamins, carbon, phosphate, biotin, and various minerals to grow. For this reason, it is cultivated on vitamin- and mineral-rich sugar sources like molasses. To support yeast growth in a controlled environment and avoid cross-contamination, oxygen is used instead of alcoholic production, ensuring aerobic conditions. At the end of the growth cycle, it undergoes pasteurization to deactivate it and is then dried. This process results in a yeast rich in B vitamins, minerals, and essential elements, making it suitable for human consumption. Nutritional yeast can be used directly as food or as an additive to enhance the nutritional content of dishes. It has a cheese-like flavor and can be added to pasta, soups, salads, hot dishes, snacks like popcorn, or various recipes for a cheesy taste. It is also used in vegan cheese-making due to its distinct flavor. It contains high amounts of protein, fiber, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, zinc, folic acid, and is a source of biotin. Suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets, it contains no additives, gluten, or added sugars.
