"People will get yeast out of the cupboard..."

Yeah, those are the kind of people who need to proof the yeast. What is it doing in the cupboard?

Proofing can't hurt and is good advise, but at some point you learn you can get away without.

I haven't bothered to proof yeast in a decade. I'm no pro, but we do make all of our pizza, bread, buns, rolls, pretzels, etc.

I buy big compressed blocks and store them in the freezer. When one is opened, some goes in a small jar in the refrigerator and the rest in a large jar in the freezer.
