The active yeast is surrounded in a "pellet" of dead yeast. Warm water not only sloughs off the dead yeast, freeing the live-but-dormant yeast, but "wakes it up" essentially (Warm and wet environments = good for microbes). The pinch of sugar gives the yeast a little bit of food so they can jumpstart asexual reproduction and make more yeast, which will eat the sugars and starches in the dough and produce carbon dioxide and ethanol, giving your buns the fluffy, airy texture you see as the carbon dioxide bubbles get trapped by the gluten protein structure formed from agitating flour's glutenin and gliadin proteins in the presence of water.
I hope you go back to making videos regularly definetly missed your videos. I'd like to know how to make Chinese restaurants beef and broccoli or generals tso? Chicken. Lol
As I drink my Vodka Martini I see that you are doing great but you need more material. Our buddy Steve has hit the big time and you have done very well for your self but never give up.
"Activates" hahahaha I mean why was that in had quotes!!
Because a scientist had to explain it to me and I trust him.
Fantastic vid tipsy!!

"So sue me?" What I would give to see a RUclips of drunken lawyers suing you!!! So glad that you are back!!
