There is a pasta from Medieval days made from bread crumbs and eggs. It
would therefore have yeast in it, although you wouldn't add it yourself. I
don't make it but I've had it. It's pretty easy but you need a strange tool
to shape the fat noodles. If it has held up 550 years there must be
something to it, eh?
