So, what is levure boulanger?

Levure boulanger is a key ingredient in traditional French baking, commonly known as baker's yeast in English. This natural, live yeast is composed of tiny living organisms that consume sugar and release carbon dioxide, which causes dough to rise and gives bread its airy texture. Unlike other types of yeast, levure boulanger is highly perishable and must be stored in the refrigerator or freezer. It is used in a wide range of baked goods, including bread, croissants, and brioche, and is essential for achieving that classic French taste and texture in your baked goods.
