Yeast
A fungus that acts as an amazing leavening agent.
Notes
Yeast is a fungus used as a leavening agent in dough and cheese recipes, such as Leavened Dough, Pastry Dough, and Sun Cheese. Its nutrient profile offers 8 protein and 7 vitamins but no carbohydrates or fat, making it a poor standalone food for XP gain—pair it with carb- and fat-rich ingredients in balanced meals to avoid the ×0.5 balance penalty. With a shelf life of 96 hours and compostable capability, it is best used promptly as a cooking ingredient rather than eaten raw.
