Fresh yeast is commonly available in supermarkets where I live, but
personally I much prefer instant dry. It works at least as well as
fresh and lasts much, much longer. The fungus is the same
(Saccharomyces cerevisiae), so it really shouldn't make any
difference. As for substitutions, replace the amount of fresh yeast
with 1/3 of the amount for instant dry, or 2/5 for active dry.
