That's right. You can use either active dry yeast or instant yeast in this recipe. With either, you do not have to activate it in lukewarm water and sugar beforehand. The yeast gets added to the rest of the ingredients in the mixer all at once. For this method to work, it's very important that your wet ingredients are at room temperature. Also make sure that your yeast is fresh/within date. If not, you can bloom it with some of the sugar/milk in the recipe to make sure that it's active before adding it to the rest of the ingredients.
