How To Use Nutritional Yeast | 3 Wonderful Ways (besides popcorn)

[@HowToMakeDinner]

Hi! Since this video I have a new go-to dressing recipe and you can find it here: howtomakedinner.com/blog/nutritional-yeast-dressing/ 😊

[@leliad7602]

Thanks! Excellent video. You asked for other ways to use nutritional yeast, and mine is one I have never seen in a video about nutritional yeast. I use it as a coating on foods you might normally fry, but I bake or broil them. Here’s how: For fish, shrimp, pork chops, chicken, etc., coat pieces with a little melted butter, oil, yogurt, buttermilk, cream cheese, etc., to provide both flavor and a sticky surface. Then sprinkle generously with nutritional yeast. Press these down a bit with a spoon, spatula, or gloved hands to help it adhere, then bake, broil, or sauté. You’ll no longer need to use flour or corn meal on these items, and you will get much more flavor and lots of B vitamins.

Froth some butter up in a small frying pan. Add some yeast flakes and stir with a fork for a few seconds until the yeast changes color slightly. It burns very easily so be alert. This mixture should be fluid and not like a paste, so the correct amount of butter is important. It is probably about half and half. Add this to your popcorn, it is absolutely mind altering. I am amazed to hear that sauerkraut powder is great on popcorn. Thanks, fellow Canadian, all of your suggestions are spectacular.

I use nutritional yeast in my beef when I make lasagna it gives it a great flavor!

[@HowToMakeDinner]

I’ll try that!

[@veganleigh4817]

Nooch is one of my favorite foods. I make mac n' "cheeze", sprinkle it on roasted and steamed veggies, make "chickun" broth powder, make "cheeze omelettes", and sprinkle it on salads. There's just so much you can do with nooch, and now I can make salad dressing with it. Thank you.

[@6SlicesofSmilePie]

I started using nutritional yeast with my porridge flakes for a nutritional breakfast at the start of lockdowns. I was looking for something to boost my immunity, physical, and mental health, after a brain stroke last year. Up to that point, I had enjoyed a long, very active life, with robust good health, never needing medication. It was an experiment at first, I cautiously added it to my morning porridge then into scrambled eggs, sprinkled over a variety of salads and into my omelette mix with all types of cheese. I love it with kefir, yogurt, mixed nuts, fresh berries, dried fruit, chopped fresh fruit, seeds…. Whatever I’ve tried it with, I have enjoyed - sweet or savoury, the list is endless, and I keep finding new ways to use it, so it’s been a useful and healthy addition to my diet. *don’t confuse Nutritional Yeast with Brewers Yeast though, lol!

[@HowToMakeDinner]

I’ve never tried it on sweet things! I’ll have to give it a shot. Maybe sliced apples? Like an apple and cheese kinda vibe?

[@jsalterxpress.2480]

My vegan sister in law turned me on to this wonderful food and it fits perfectly into my ketogenic life. Thanks for the tips, you’re awesome.

[@HowToMakeDinner]

Aw thanks so much J! Isn't it just the best stuff ever? I'm curious to know your favourite ways to use it?

[@jsalterxpress.2480]

How To Make Dinner I add it to salads, to spaghetti sauce, to red beans, meat patties, taco salad, cottage cheese, eggs cooked any way. I even top my baked fish with it. I use it as a topping or a condiment mostly. I love the stuff.

[@leliad7602]

@@jsalterxpress.2480 Thanks for the extra ideas of how to use it. I want to eat some every day.

[@mauragvera1672]

​@jsalterxpress.2480 hi, sorry, it is gonna be my first time-consuming yeast, but I no idea how can I use it.

[@normannorum]

Have used this on my popcorn since I was a kid thanks to my oddly-selective-health-nut father. Never thought to use it elsewhere lol. This made me subscribe!

[@cherylcalac8485]

Thank you gonna try them all. I’ve never used it but I’ve heard about it.❣️

[@valerie8618]

I tried it on scrambled eggs and it seems ok. Thank you for the ideas!

[@V.Hansen.]

Just used mine for the first time this morning. Added it to my zucchini scrambled eggs. I was nervous about the taste and so added cheese to be sit it blended in. It tastes great and I’ll try it without added cheese another time. I love cheese and get too many calories from it already.

[@annjones5201]

i discovered it about 10yrs ago, while researching veganism(which i am not) on google. it took a minute to get used to the taste, now its a staple in my kitchen. Each brand has its own taste. Large flakes are best. I luv it on a baked potato with a drip of olive oil.

[@HowToMakeDinner]

It’s true. There is quite a range of flavours out there! Yum now I’m craving baked potatoes 😅

[@jessicah3450]

Oh I just envisioned those steak house baked potatoes that have the bread crumbs and garlic on the outside. Next potato I'm rolling it in and topping it with nutritional yeast. Thanks for the idea!

I’m on sixth day of water fast and was suffering from low energy (still mild but unpleasant). Got at health food store, made some ‘cheese’ dip and had a spoonful. Feeling much better and looking forward to incorporating it into regular diet when I start eating again! Was 104kg (191cm height) now 94kg, going for 80kg.

[@michaelsigismonde7958]

Hi, Mike from Long Island. I always buy Bragg Nutritional Yeast; I sprinkle it heavily whenever I make pizza, or add it to pasta. When I'm not making anything, I sometimes open the jar of yeast and take a few spoonfuls of it. You're right, it's delicious to the point of being habit forming. But nutritionally, it's great for you.

[@HowToMakeDinner]

Yum! I’m heading home to put some on my pasta right now 😄

Hey Paula - excellent - thanks to yourself I have added Nutritional Yeast to the cullinary arsenals of 3 others plus myself. A bowl of broccholi florets, cauliflower florets and diced potato all drizzled with oil, salt, pepper and yeast then BBQ-ed in a baking tray - terrific 🙂 T'was an accompaniment to a whole red snapper which sat upon the vegies in the BBQ! The vegies went in a cold BBQ (Weber Q) and when temp reached 400 (5 minutes) in went the snapper, wrapped in foil and after 15 minutes just cooked through. A fab addition to potato mash also 😉

I'm just imagining an Italian sprinkling as a replacement for Parmesan. Sacrilege to some, a revelation to others. I personally love adding almond butter too. Just needs a bit more pre-melting to stir in effectively. But at the end of the day, a small price to pay for great flavour.

Yes! If you want something even more parm-like, grind up some raw nuts and add nutritional yeast and garlic. Such a good little topper!
