Add 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, stir to dissolve then sprinkle 2 packet dry yeast slowly over the surface, stir the mixture; TIME IT; In 3 to 4 minutes, the yeast will have absorbed enough liquid to activate and will start rising to the surface. At the end of 10 minutes, active yeast will multiply and create a rounded crown of foam to the 1-cup mark. Use the yeast now.
