Yeast Flakes?

Someone very nice posted some recipes for cashew cheese stuff (sooooo sorry I'm blanking on your name!!) and now I can't find the recipes! I printed them out, went to the store and bought the ingredients for one of the recipes...and left the recipes in the cart! <_<

Anyway, I'll find the recipes eventually, but one of the ingredients was listed as "yeast flakes." I went to Wegman's to find them, and not only did I not find them, no one knew what they were!

I ended up buying the jar of yeast, uh, pellets, I guess, but is that the same thing?

Edit: I found the recipes...I had saved them to my puter. Doh! :blink:

I had been looking for them also and couldn't find them in any grocery store. I finally found them at my health food store but they were in the section with the vitamins, not the food. Ask at a health food store. They are not the same thing as the yeast you buy in the grocery store to make bread etc. Hope this helps!

They are totally different than the yeast you bake with.

I'm not sure where you live but Fred Meyer/Krogers carries them in the natural food bulk isle. Wild Oats has them in the bulk isle. Co-op have them in the bulk section. Health food stores would probably be the same.

I haven't looked for them pre bagged so if you find them that way let me know please.

You don't have to use them but it gives the "cheese" a more cheesy flavor. I last made mac and cheese without it and the kids liked it just fine. We are used to cashew cheese though.

Matilda,

I didn't use anything, just left them out. Remember, we are used to cashew cheese and I don't think the flavor was that much different. You can experiment with different seasonings to see how you like them too. If you don't get used to the flavor with the yeast flakes you will not have anything to miss. :)

The Nacho Cheese doesn't use them and the seasonings (chili powder, I use cumin or homemade chili powder) make up the difference.

I don't know if they upset my stomach last time (could be cc) or if it was the chicken italian sausage I used. We were all fine this last time but there was no yeast flakes or sausage.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
