Nutritional yeast
Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast sold as flakes or powder, with a savoury, cheesy, slightly nutty flavour often used to mimic the taste of cheese in vegan cooking. It is sprinkled over popcorn, pasta, and vegetables, or stirred into sauces for a savoury, umami boost. Unlike baking or brewing yeast, it is inactive and will not leaven dough.
