Where does dry rapid rise yeast rank with instant and active dry yeast?
Instant yeast is added directly to the flour you do not need to rehydrate it before using. I think dry rapid rise yeast and active dry yeast are the same thing. They are both dry and need to be rehydrated before use. I hope this helps!
