I made this bread tonight so we could make Cuban sandwiches. The bread came out fantastic! Sandwiches were a hit. Will definitely make this again. Thank you.

In reply to Brigitte. You can use it 1:1 in this recipe and since it doesn't need to be activated, you don't have to wait to use it. I'd still combine it with the water and sugar since those ingredients are accounted for in this recipe.

What if I only have instant dry yeast?

In reply to n. Thank you for your comment. The salt is added in Step 3 when you add the rest of the water.
