rapid rise yeast

SOS!

I'm having a pizza party tommorrow. Last night, I prepared pizza dough using the e-book recipe. However, I used rapid rise yeast instead of active dry yeast. Now, the dough has risen 3-4 times in size! Is the dough still good to go or I'm better off redo it using the right yeast?

Help!

Re: rapid rise yeast

You're fine. It might taste a little yeasty, but it will work ok. Instant yeast does require less quantity than active yeast, next time try cutting the amount in half.
