Abstract
High protein active dried bakers' yeast having excellent gas production is prepared from yeast strains Ng 2031 and Ng 2103 having a protein content of 47 to 60%. Drying is carried out by dividing fresh compressed yeast into particles followed by contacting the particles with a stream of hot air initially at a maximum temperature of 160.degree. C until the yeast is dried to at least 85% dry matter content by weight in not more than 120 minutes. The air temperature is gradually decreased so that the temperature of the yeast does not rise above 50.degree. C. A swelling and/or wetting agent may be mixed with the yeast before drying.
