chunk of bakers yeast

[Arjan]

I got a chunk of bakers yeast (dough) for making the JOA.
Do i toss in the whole chunk of dough or must i dissolve it first somehow?

cheers

Better check the Joe's Ancient Orange recipe again dude, it doesn't call out a chuck of baker's yeast, just one packet of Fleishmann's Bread Yeast (non Quick Rise)

Hope that helps,

yep i know.. although fleishmans yeas isnt available out here. (only bruggemans yeast)
and i am indeed doing the bigger batch JOA with the hydraded, but also want to give the chunk a try, to make it "more ancient" i guess..
so let me put it different to a "what if you would use a chunk of dough"

Well, as it calls out in the recipe I'd use one tsp/gallon.
