Let’s talk about yeast y’all!! On this special episode short Fatu and Shekerah dive into one of humankind's most favorite microbes. Responsible for giving bread its rise and adding that extra touch to beer and other adult beverages, yeast has been used by humans for centuries to improve our cooking. Learn how the yeast we use commercially at the store compare to wild yeast found naturally all around us and exactly what makes yeast so useful for cooking. Warning, this episode may even inspire you to get into the kitchen and start developing your own recipes, because sometimes the best experiments start in the kitchen!
