Can I Use Flour Instead Of Nutritional Yeast?
No, flour and nutritional yeast are not interchangeable ingredients. Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast that has a slightly nutty and cheesy flavor, and it is used to add flavor and nutrition to dishes, particularly in vegan and vegetarian cooking. Flour, on the other hand, is a powdered form of grains used to thicken sauces, make doughs and batters, and fry foods. It does not have the same cheesy flavor or nutritional benefits as nutritional yeast, so it cannot be used as a substitute in recipes that call for nutritional yeast.
