    Yeast and milk

    Does it matter what kind of milk (i.e. whole, 2%, skim) is used when preparing a recipe requiring yeast?

    No, it shouldn't matter what type of milk you use.

    Here's the thing.  Whole milk is about 3 1/2 % fat.  Skim milk has 0% fat--and you've got 2 choices in between those two extremes.  BUT really--you're talking about a very small amount.  The difference between a cup of whole milk and a cup of skim milk is only about 1 1/2 TEASPOONS of fat.  The difference truly is negligible.  So the above poster is right--use what you have on hand, and don't worry about it one way or the other.
