Nutritional supplement: real food
This is called nutritional yeast in the UK. Many of the Budwig recipes mention yeast flakes: they are included mainly for flavour but being low in salt and a rich source of B vitamins, they are a healthy addition to food.
Tastes like Parmesan
Yeast flakes are a granular condiment with a savoury Parmesan cheese-like flavour. It is made from a special variety of de-activated yeast, and some varieties include vitamin B12.
Use like Parmesan
Nutritional yeast flakes are tasty sprinkled over rice, risottos, soups, stews, buckwheat and vegetables and goes particularly well used with oleolux.
