I've been making bread for 20 years. People love it but I've never been happy with the end product until TODAY! ! I've just made the best loaf of bread I've ever made and most importantly I'm very happy with the end result. THANK YOU JOHN KIRKWOOD!!

Me too CarpeDiem my daughter said only yesterday the bread hits the spot every time and it was a day old the bread, its delicious. Im losing the plot with Sourdough bread thats a whole new level of stress for me 😅
Hi Everyone, sorry I haven't added or answered any of your comments over the last few days as I'm recovering from major surgery, I should be able to get back on track over the next couple of days, thanks for your patients.
Maybe one day Martin. But at the moment I'm too busy in the kitchen. 😂👍😋Thanks for watching my friend. My latest video recipe. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Farmhouse sandwich loaf profoodhomemade.com/farmhouse-sandwich-loaf/
John, I have never in my life, made a bread this soft and delicious. I consider myself a pretty good cook and baker, but my one downfall has always been breads, and that has frustrated me! I want to thank you for your amazing tutorial and guiding me through….I made the best bread I ever had - I think it has everything to do with the correct hydration, which I have NEVER realized before. So now, I will watch each of your videos to learn more! Thank you very much Chef!
Hoorah I made it. Well, I screwed up, but it came out terrific. NEVER DROP THE PAN AFTER THE SECOND RISE. The beautifully raised dough collapsed on me., just like a souffle. I had two choices, I could let it rise again, or put it in the oven and bake it as is... I made the wrong choice. I baked it as is. And YET!!!! it came out EXCELLENT. I thought it would end up like a piece of lead, but it rose in the oven, While not as high as I would have liked it, the bread came out light and delicate like any white bread on the store shelf. And I was using AP (Or as the Brits call it, 'Plain"} flour. No changes in the recipe. Thank you John Kirkwood for a foolproof recipe.
One thing my brother and I loved from warm crusty freshly baked bread - was cutting in whilst still warm and having butter melted through it. Absolute bliss! In fact half the loaf was gone before our parents even realised 😋😋
Every video I watch makes me want to run into the kitchen to try it myself. The tutorials are so easy to follow, the tone is always helpful and encouraging, I love this channel.
I am so pleased that I found your youtube channel. I am a bit late to the party, being a complete bread making novice and failed miserably recently with two recipes from two different sources, I was about to give up making bread after both very poor attempts. Even wondering why, at my old age of 75, why I wanted to persevere! But then, in my dogged determination, I decided I would try a third time to produce a bread that I would be proud of before I went back to the bought bread mix in the bread machine. Well your “Sandwich bread made easy at home” video, which sadly had no written recipe, but your patient, detailed step by step process was what I thought would be the one! So, with pen and pad in hand, I rewatched and rewatched your video, frantically taking notes, then I wrote out the full detailed recipe. Our -4 degree celsius winter day was certainly a challenge, so I increased proofing times, kept everything warm, even using my electric throw wrapped around the bowl and the pan during proofing 😊 and, my oh my! I managed to produced the most perfect loaf of bread! 👏👏👏 Thank you so very much from the Australian Snowy Mountains for sharing your knowledge and expertise. I am now a huge fan!🤗
Welcome aboard my friend, and thank you for supporting the channel. I'm so pleased you gave it a try and it turned out well. Here is my latest video recipe. Steak-n-ale-pies profoodhomemade.com/steak-n-ale-pies/
Well done Dee! It's a wonderful feeling when you can at least produce that perfect loaf. I did the same as you- tried a few recipes that were so-so. Followed John's exactly and perfect result every time. This is now my go-to for bread, I don't buy shop-bought anymore.
I made this bread and I was so happy when I saw it I still can't belive that I was able to pull it off, it was my first time making bread so I was so so happy. Thank you for the recepie

I baked this bread for breakfast today. It was a huge success! 30 minutes after it is baked, sliced it, spread some butter and sprinkled a bit of sea salt on one of my slices, just heavenly. 2 adults and a kid ate half of it at breakfast, that good. Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation and the perfect measurements.
Hello John I have only just discovered you and now that I’ve finally found someone that can actually deliver material that is easy to understand and that works I’m not letting you go. Thank you your an excellent teacher.
Awesome, thank you! Marva. My latest video recipe. Thanks for watching. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Crusty bread rolls profoodhomemade.com/crusty-bread-rolls/
John Kirkwood, you are my hero. Finally I can bake bread. My wife is overjoyed. (My neighbors too, because I bake more than I need. It's so insanely fun, and relaxing.)
Thank you for your kind words my friend. My latest video recipe. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Crusty Farmhouse Cob profoodhomemade.com/crusty-farmhouse-cob/
John, I sure enjoy watching your videos and thankful you take the time and effort to share your skills. I purchase very little premade foods as I like to know what I'm eating, plus the satisfaction I get as I enjoy cooking. I even grind my own meat from primal cuts! You explain everything so eloquently and calmly, and keep it as simple as possible. The world needs more people like you. BLT's for dinner tonight and yes, I cure/smoke/slice my own bacon at home.
John, I thought of you today and wanted to say a big THANKS! Yesterday afternoon I baked your loaf for my younger brother and his wife. They loved it! This a.m. I opened my bread wrapper and there were only TWO slices of my store bought bread left! I am now able to knock out your bread in 2 hours, like you said! Yes, I made another loaf today for my sandwiches and for my wife for her toast. Just a sincere thanks to your video! Keep 'em coming, please. We love your bread.
You're very welcome Pat, pleased you found the recipe useful, now you'll have to be adventurous and try some of my other bread recipies :o) 33% wholewheat step by step baguette video coming soon, you should like this one, it'll be up in a couple of days :) Please like share, comment and maybe subscribe ( if you haven't done so already) so you don't miss any future videos.

John, after about a year and SEVERAL loafs, I finally hit the motherload with this week's loaf!!! Absolutely perfect. A soft baked crust and warm soft interior that was perfect for sandwiches and French toast. Thanks again!!!

I made this, and it was incredible! I still can't get over how beautiful the bread looked and how it amazing it smelled! I've been baking so much from your videos, that my friends are starting to want to bake too because how easy you make it look/how I can even do it as someone who doesn't bake much. HIGHLY recommend this recipe to all viewers, the bread is UNREAL
I MUST say that both my husband and I watched your TH-cam tutorials of beef stew w/dumplings, roast spuds and various breads and TOTALLY LOVED every minute of it.

My dear johnn, here in Argentina is 00.30 at night, and instead of going to sleep, I'm going to prepare this delicious homemade bread. God bless the internet. Thanks for sharing your experience.
John, thank you so much for all the detailed tips you include! I am a newer subscriber to your channel, and an experienced cook, trained mostly by my grandma - your tips are so helpful and I especially appreciate you showing manual and other techniques since any person could be in either situation (I have!) at any given moment - these are priceless life skills. Thanks much!
I just received your bread book and tried this loaf. I usually use a bread machine set on the dough setting and then bake it in a regular oven. I put in the ingredients in the order that bread machines like (liquids in the bottom, then dry ingredients, then yeast on top). I buy instant SAF yeast in a block and keep it in my freezer. I then put a small amount in a small container in my fridge and use from that for my bread. I have never had dead yeast using this technique. Bread came out of the oven looking great! It is cooling now. I substituted whole wheat flour for 1/3 of the flour. Can’t wait to taste it! I have made all my own bread since 2015.
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade It turned out great! I put it in the freezer because I had some other bread I had to use up and had it in a sandwich today. It was nice and soft, as promised. I want to try your sandwich buns next. I have tried many recipes and have always reverted to buying them at the grocery, as I have not liked any of them. I'll let you know. I have some other buns to use up. 🙂

Just now pulled these out of the oven and they look great! I used the calculation method you taught us and made a 1000 gram recipe that yielded 2 large loaves; I made sure to start a bread cook-book of my own so I don't forget and this is the first recipe in along with the calculation instructions. TY for the amazing tutorials.
Hey, Mr. K! 😀 I have never seen such complete, well-explained instructions, in my 50 years of baking! And, I love the science behind it all, so very interesting. The shower cap - Brilliant! 💫 I haven’t made bread in 30 years, but after watching your videos, I’m going to start, again. Thank you, so very much, for the inspiration. 🍞🥖

Made the bread, looked just like yours, hooray! Tasted great, even made ABLT, note the A, avocado of course, and lightly toasted the slices. I made my own mayo, with extra virgin olive oil from the county next to mine and a healthy splash of Cholula hot sauce. Had a nice bottle of Calaveras County red, a Tempranillo, with the sandwich, ended up a little toasted myself. What we call California living!!! Life is good! Keep up the great work, thanks...

Thank you for sharing this. I was very pleased with my first loaf using your recipe and techniques. The only difference is I used all purpose instead of bread flour. But the loaf came out very well. Nice, light texture. Lightly browned but still cooked. We had done warm with butter and it was very tasty and had a great mouth feel. My wife and I agree that it's going to be a very good sandwich bread or toast. Might be time to reconsider store bought bread. As you said, it only took a couple of hours, and most of that was waiting. I work from home and this is the perfect bread that I can make while still doing my day job. I can't wait to get some fresh yeast and bread flour.
John, This is excellent! I almost gave up learning to make bread before your videos. I had never seen oven rise. All I was making were inedible bricks. I feel like your bakery apprentice.
Years ago I made enough bread bricks to make book ends, door stops, paper weights, and we talked about building a house with my bread. When I ever figured out the yeast was dead, I was happy. That was 40 years ago, and even though I bake bread all the time, I have learned a lot from these videos.

Made this for the first time, and it was just as easy as you showed. In trying it, it was light and fluffy! I’ve already shared your site with several of my friends throughout Sicily Italy and the USA. BRAVO
Made this sandwich bread few times and i must say, this is by far is THE BEST SANDWICH BREAD recipe. Taste good, soft and not crumbly like other recipes that i tried. Goes well with butter and strawberry jam. Fantastic! Thanks for the recipe!
I have tried perhaps six sandwich bread recipes. Some requiring a mother , some requiring lots of butter and milk. They were all ok. I must say , once again, thank you for the recipe and instructions. I made this loaf two days ago. It was not difficult and produced excellent sandwich bread. I will now add this , along with your other recipes to my “ go to “ list of yumminess. Thank you again ( as I type this , the final proof for Ciabatta rolls is occurring. They are so great I was forced to make a double recipe. :)
OMG 😮 I have baked 4 loaves using this recipe and all I can say is belissimo 😘 I’ve been baking bread for years and it’s not a patch on this. Well done I’m so pleased I stumbled across your channel. P.s and very informative too to say the least. Absolutely love 💖 your videos thanks for sharing x

Enjoyed watching your videos on making french baguette and this one. Love love love how you make so simple indeed with simple ingredients. Thank you for the lessons about the dry yeast and hydration. Thank you, sir.
Hello there John Kirkwood. Sherie again. Beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon here in Brisbane, made even better with the smell of the bread I made, using this recipe. I'm in heaven. Thank you so much for all your recipes. If you get tired of me writing to you, Mrs.Kirkwood and yourself could adopt me. 69, well trained and probably eat too much bread. Bye for now. Hope you are all well. Sherie Rodrigues 🧡
Oh John. Your recipe is absolutely wonderful! I’ve never made bread before and I wish I could upload a picture of my loaf - I’m that pleased with the results! Thanks for taking the time to make this video :-)

Hi John. Just to say i have just used this recipe to make homemade pizza, and have to say it's my best ever. The crust was so light. I split the made mixture into 3 after leaving to rise in the usual way and have frozen 2/3 of it. It makes 3 x 12 inch pizza's. Marvellous. This is now my one and only pizza dough recipe. Lovely. Thanks again.

@John Kirkwood it's now been 4 years since I started my baking journey after watching one of your videos. I now bake my own bread, make my own recipes, and very rarely buy store bought bread! THANK YOU!
I made this bread yesterday. It’s absolutely delicious! I‘ve been searching for a good recipe for years and I’ve finally found it! Thank you for sharing your tips and recipes.
Thanks for watching Jennifer , much appreciated. Very kind comment thank you. I have plenty more bread and other recipes if you want to have a look. Please like share and subscribe for more great video recipes.
I made this John! Turned out wonderful! It didn’t look as pretty as yours. But tasted great! Once I master this one I’ll move on to another kind. Maybe the ciabatta!
Made this loaf today after making fruit loaf a couple of days ago. Turned out perfectly, used to make my own bread but got out the habit. Thanks for the inspiration to get back into baking.
Hey John 👋🏻 I just made it and it’s just wonderful, thank you so much for your recipes and lessons I’m always enjoying watching your videos, thank you so much.
i just made your bread in the mixer omg john it was the most delicious bread ive ever had , this was the first time i made it and have to say it was amazing tku so much, Im waiting for your profiteroles xxxx Im so glad you showe dthe yeast test i did that will two boxes and low and belhold i had a full tin but it was open and it was dead threw it away tku so much xxx hope you get well soon
Thank you. Yeah we had 2 main sayings in our work/commercial kitchens, No1 "Always test the yeast! before you start the recipe" 👍 No2 was "Kitchen pickers! wear big knickers" 😂👍.
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade lol kitchen pickers wear big knicker its been 30 odd years since ive heard that old saying your video always reminds me of my childhood which tbh makes me happy living in a foreign country, Your video keeps us going and i look forward to hearing you and your tips cant wait to see the éclair one theres so many tops ive learnt like the yeast test and to let the bread prove an inch higher than the bread tin which is invaluable advice xxxx
For anyone wanting a few written steps, I used the following with my stand mixer: Take the ingredients as listed: 430g / 15.2 oz of Strong White Bread Flour 245g / 8½ oz of Warm Water 40°C / 104°F 20g / 1½ tbls of Vegetable or Olive Oil 7g / 1 heaped tsp of Active Dried Yeast 10g / 1½ tsp of Kosher Salt or 8g / 1 tsp of Table Salt 6g / 1 tsp of Granulated Sugar Then: Knead 10 minutes First proof 30 minutes Knock back Shape and place in tin Second proof 30 minutes, somewhere a little warm Heat oven to 160c (fan assisted) Sprinkle flour Bake 10 mins Turn 180 degrees Bake for a further 20 minutes Remove from tin and cool on a rack ENJOY!
I just want to say that this bread is absolutely awesome. I just let mine rise sitting on the oven instead of putting it in the container in the sink, but it still turned out absolutely awesome! Love your videos!

Love all your recipes John. FInally, mastered sour dough thanks to you. I want to make a 3lb loaf with this sandwich bread recipe . Could I half the recipe and add it to the full recipe to do this?
Thanks for watching Sue, much appreciated. I've done the conversions for you, only 2 ingredients stay the same, the yeast and sugar. 645g / 23 oz Strong White Bread Flour 367g / 12½ oz Warm Water 40°C / 104°F 30g / 2 tbls Vegetable or Olive Oil 7g / 1 heaped tsp of Active Dried Yeast 12g / 1½ tsp Salt 6g / 1 tsp Granulated Sugar
I made this bread and 1. It did not rise as much as yours and I used a brand new yeast to make it 2. The bread crust was chewy I think it's because I left the top heating rods on.... I have an otg (Oven Toaster Grill) and it works with some heating rods at the top and bottom...
Thank you so much 🙂 here are some bread making rules to follow. 1. Stick to the recipe rigidly, the quantities and ingredients are very important and carefully worked out for successful results. 2. Use digital SCALES for all of the measurements including weighing the WATER, IN GRAMS, NOT FLUID OUNCES, don't convert to cups or measuring jugs, they are too inaccurate. try to use bottled water if possible. Tap water contains chlorine, and in certain areas it is higher than others, which will weaken or even kill the yeast. 3. Use proper bread flour with at least 12% protein, check the ingredients list on the side of the flour bag for the protein level, protein may show in grams per serving but just work it out, it needs to be 12g of protein per 100g of flour. Plain or all purpose flour has a lower protein count and is great for pastries, cakes, and biscuits, but is NOT strong enough for making bread. 4. Very important...Check your yeast is working, BEFORE you start, you can do a yeast test as shown in my sandwich bread video here th-cam.com/video/HWpSbYV96_c/w-d-xo.html
I've just tried this making this loaf and followed your instructions to the letter. I'm used to working with a little more hydration when baking bread and I did get a little concerned when pulling the dough together at first, but I persevered and it all came together beautifully! My kitchen was a little cooler today so the proving took a bit longer but the end result was a cracking loaf! I even buttered the tin which I don't normally do and I think this really helped towards getting a crispy bottom! hahaha! The taste and the compliments were great and this easy little all-rounder loaf is now going to be a regular for sure. Thank you John!

Thank you for the videos and the tips, John. A couple of queries: What if I want to substitute the strong bread flour with whole wheat one for a healthier choice? Would the amount of water be the same or the ratio change? Also, what is the hydration ratio that applies to other breads -is there any guidance on that?

Hello John, this is great bread. I make a loaf to this recipe every Monday. It is so good but for some reason, after I put it in my electric toaster the bread has a strange texture, It becomes close-grained with an almost brittle finish, it's as though the gluten melts. I know you'll say it's about accurate measurements but please be assured I am meticulous when following any of your recipes. I was given a sandwich at a friend's house recently and was surprised to discover it was made from a Waitrose Soft White Medium Sliced. Can I make such bread at home? What is the secret to making a white loaf that's perfect for toast, please?
Hi Bill. I've never really had a problem when toasting the bread. Also mass produced store bought bread has a lot of other ingredients to keep the breads shelf life longer and to keep it soft.
Hi Bill, I make this bread all the time and after 3 days on the counter I slice and wrap each slice individually with saran wrap and freeze in a freezer bag. Take out a slice at a time for toasting or thaw out for sandwiches. Hope this helps. Works perfect for me.
Thank you John for the tips with the yeast. I've just made 2 loaves and they haven't risen as much as i expected . I added the dried yeast to the flour, so I won't be doing this again . I will definitely prove the yeast first. Thank you for explaining so easily to follow. You have such a kind fatherly voice which is so comforting in these times.

Hi John, I was going to post my comments on your latest great video, but this is where it's relevant. I hate you! (Only joking, read on...) This recipe works fantasticly well and I have been making it every other day for the last few weeks. I have to, family won't touch the sliced stuff anymore! First one didn't work out very well, it was quite dense and just about 'ok'. Similar to my previous efforts. Toasted, it was a struggle to eat the following day. Second one I left to rise for a lot longer in the tin (tip here: use the timer as a guide, it may well take twice as long) until it looked like yours, and omg, wow! Having made this a dozen times now, this is an absolute keeper. I know how to "tiger crust" it, but to be honest, for a general purpose sandwich/toast loaf it is a winner as it is. So now I have to spend a couple of hours a week to keep making this. Arghhhh 😉🤣 But a huge THANK YOU JOHN, it definitely gets the thumbs up from us 👍🍻
😂🤣😂👍 Thanks George, now get cracking on the pitas, Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the website, Pita Bread profoodhomemade.com/pita-bread/
Made this just now. Right from the start i was on fhe wrong foot - not enough flour, then i messed up oven temp, had to go out and fetch a parcel and dogs got out. BUT following as closely as possible amidst the disasters the loaf still turned out FAB! Great stuff John. Off for a rest oh and a bit of bread.

Hi john, several months ago I bought your books. Well I finally got round to making the sandwich bread from book one. I made one mistake I put 450g of flour in instead of 430. Despite this the bread turned out great. Now to put this in to prospective. Over the years I have tried to make bread, every time it was a disaster. you have rekindled my desire to make more. As an ex pat now living in Florida good bread was hard to come by, not any more, thanks to you.
Nice job Ian, hope you try the other 59 bread recipes on the channel 🤣😋👍 here is the playlist of all my bread recipes, and there are many more other good old English recipes on the channel too, from desserts to full meals. th-cam.com/play/PLUISvii9kE48PCHhfGE2ZJ3BmfZlCU36V.html Fantastic pizza recipe coming soon too 😋👍
As previously stated I made this bread with success, I have since made a couple of batches. My wife loves it so we have decided that I am going to make on a regular basis. So my question to John is if I double the recipe do I double the yeast? FYI I joined a facebook group and posed this question. some said yes some said maybe, some answers went way over my head. So is there a simple answer yes or no?
Mr. Kirkwood, your instructions and explanations are right on!!! I just made my first Sandwich Bread and it was beautiful and tasty. Thank you so much.

Thank you for watching, pleased you enjoy the video's.
John, I have never in my life, made a bread this soft and delicious. I consider myself a pretty good cook and baker, but my one downfall has always been breads, and that has frustrated me! I want to thank you for your amazing tutorial and guiding me through….I made the best bread I ever had - I think it has everything to do with the correct hydration, which I have NEVER realized before. So now, I will watch each of your videos to learn more! Thank you very much Chef!
Fantastic M, I'm pleased you gave it a try my friend and it turned out well.
Hoorah I made it. Well, I screwed up, but it came out terrific. NEVER DROP THE PAN AFTER THE SECOND RISE. The beautifully raised dough collapsed on me., just like a souffle. I had two choices, I could let it rise again, or put it in the oven and bake it as is... I made the wrong choice. I baked it as is. And YET!!!! it came out EXCELLENT. I thought it would end up like a piece of lead, but it rose in the oven, While not as high as I would have liked it, the bread came out light and delicate like any white bread on the store shelf. And I was using AP (Or as the Brits call it, 'Plain"} flour. No changes in the recipe. Thank you John Kirkwood for a foolproof recipe.
One thing my brother and I loved from warm crusty freshly baked bread - was cutting in whilst still warm and having butter melted through it. Absolute bliss! In fact half the loaf was gone before our parents even realised 😋😋
Every video I watch makes me want to run into the kitchen to try it myself.
The tutorials are so easy to follow, the tone is always helpful and encouraging, I love this channel.
Aww, that's so kind, Elaine. Thank you for watching my friend ❤️ much appreciated,
I am so pleased that I found your youtube channel. I am a bit late to the party, being a complete bread making novice and failed miserably recently with two recipes from two different sources, I was about to give up making bread after both very poor attempts. Even wondering why, at my old age of 75, why I wanted to persevere! But then, in my dogged determination, I decided I would try a third time to produce a bread that I would be proud of before I went back to the bought bread mix in the bread machine.
Well your “Sandwich bread made easy at home” video, which sadly had no written recipe, but your patient, detailed step by step process was what I thought would be the one! So, with pen and pad in hand, I rewatched and rewatched your video, frantically taking notes, then I wrote out the full detailed recipe.
Our -4 degree celsius winter day was certainly a challenge, so I increased proofing times, kept everything warm, even using my electric throw wrapped around the bowl and the pan during proofing 😊 and, my oh my! I managed to produced the most perfect loaf of bread! 👏👏👏 Thank you so very much from the Australian Snowy Mountains for sharing your knowledge and expertise. I am now a huge fan!🤗

Well done Dee! It's a wonderful feeling when you can at least produce that perfect loaf. I did the same as you- tried a few recipes that were so-so. Followed John's exactly and perfect result every time. This is now my go-to for bread, I don't buy shop-bought anymore.
I made this bread and I was so happy when I saw it I still can't belive that I was able to pull it off, it was my first time making bread so I was so so happy. Thank you for the recepie

I baked this bread for breakfast today. It was a huge success! 30 minutes after it is baked, sliced it, spread some butter and sprinkled a bit of sea salt on one of my slices, just heavenly. 2 adults and a kid ate half of it at breakfast, that good. Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation and the perfect measurements.
Nice job AE, pleased you and your family enjoyed the recipe.

I sure enjoy watching your videos and thankful you take the time and effort to share your skills. I purchase very little premade foods as I like to know what I'm eating, plus the satisfaction I get as I enjoy cooking. I even grind my own meat from primal cuts! You explain everything so eloquently and calmly, and keep it as simple as possible. The world needs more people like you. BLT's for dinner tonight and yes, I cure/smoke/slice my own bacon at home.
Thank you for your kind words my friend.
John, I thought of you today and wanted to say a big THANKS! Yesterday afternoon I baked your loaf for my younger brother and his wife. They loved it! This a.m. I opened my bread wrapper and there were only TWO slices of my store bought bread left! I am now able to knock out your bread in 2 hours, like you said! Yes, I made another loaf today for my sandwiches and for my wife for her toast. Just a sincere thanks to your video! Keep 'em coming, please. We love your bread.

Awesome, thank you!
Sorry not a food processor it has dough hook was just wondering about the size has hook and mixer
I just received your bread book and tried this loaf. I usually use a bread machine set on the dough setting and then bake it in a regular oven. I put in the ingredients in the order that bread machines like (liquids in the bottom, then dry ingredients, then yeast on top). I buy instant SAF yeast in a block and keep it in my freezer. I then put a small amount in a small container in my fridge and use from that for my bread. I have never had dead yeast using this technique. Bread came out of the oven looking great! It is cooling now. I substituted whole wheat flour for 1/3 of the flour. Can’t wait to taste it! I have made all my own bread since 2015.
Fantastic Judy! I'm pleased you gave it a try my friend and I hope it turned out well.
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade It turned out great! I put it in the freezer because I had some other bread I had to use up and had it in a sandwich today. It was nice and soft, as promised. I want to try your sandwich buns next. I have tried many recipes and have always reverted to buying them at the grocery, as I have not liked any of them. I'll let you know. I have some other buns to use up. 🙂
I made this today. Best bread I've ever made! Will now be my go to recipe. Thanks John!

Just now pulled these out of the oven and they look great!

Made the bread, looked just like yours, hooray! Tasted great, even made ABLT, note the A, avocado of course, and lightly toasted the slices. I made my own mayo, with extra virgin olive oil from the county next to mine and a healthy splash of Cholula hot sauce. Had a nice bottle of Calaveras County red, a Tempranillo, with the sandwich, ended up a little toasted myself. What we call California living!!! Life is good! Keep up the great work, thanks...

Thanks for watching my friend. My latest video recipe. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Farmhouse sandwich loaf profoodhomemade.com/farmhouse-sandwich-loaf/
Thank you for sharing this. I was very pleased with my first loaf using your recipe and techniques. The only difference is I used all purpose instead of bread flour. But the loaf came out very well. Nice, light texture. Lightly browned but still cooked. We had done warm with butter and it was very tasty and had a great mouth feel.
My wife and I agree that it's going to be a very good sandwich bread or toast. Might be time to reconsider store bought bread. As you said, it only took a couple of hours, and most of that was waiting. I work from home and this is the perfect bread that I can make while still doing my day job.
I can't wait to get some fresh yeast and bread flour.
Thanks again for watching John, yeah you really need proper bread flour mate, you'll see a vast difference in the loaf.
Thank you, John. I thoroughly enjoy ALL your breadmaking recipes. I am waiting on the first proof 🎉
Glad you like them!
John, This is excellent! I almost gave up learning to make bread before your videos. I had never seen oven rise. All I was making were inedible bricks. I feel like your bakery apprentice.
Thanks again for watching poche12651 as always much appreciated.
Years ago I made enough bread bricks to make book ends, door stops, paper weights, and we talked about building a house with my bread. When I ever figured out the yeast was dead, I was happy. That was 40 years ago, and even though I bake bread all the time, I have learned a lot from these videos.
Excellent. The best cooking/baking videos on here. Thank you.

Thanks for watching and sharing the channel Sam, much appreciated my friend.
Made this sandwich bread few times and i must say, this is by far is THE BEST SANDWICH BREAD recipe. Taste good, soft and not crumbly like other recipes that i tried. Goes well with butter and strawberry jam. Fantastic! Thanks for the recipe!
Glad you liked it GT.
I made this today John and it's perfect! I'm so pleased! Thank you so much for your clear and detailed instructions xx
You are so welcome!
I have tried perhaps six sandwich bread recipes. Some requiring a mother , some requiring lots of butter and milk. They were all ok.
I must say , once again, thank you for the recipe and instructions. I made this loaf two days ago. It was not difficult and produced excellent sandwich bread. I will now add this , along with your other recipes to my “ go to “ list of yumminess. Thank you again ( as I type this , the final proof for Ciabatta rolls is occurring. They are so great I was forced to make a double recipe. :)

Hello there John Kirkwood. Sherie again. Beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon here in Brisbane, made even better with the smell of the bread I made, using this recipe. I'm in heaven. Thank you so much for all your recipes. If you get tired of me writing to you, Mrs.Kirkwood and yourself could adopt me. 69, well trained and probably eat too much bread. Bye for now.

Hi John. Just to say i have just used this recipe to make homemade pizza, and have to say it's my best ever. The crust was so light. I split the made mixture into 3 after leaving to rise in the usual way and have frozen 2/3 of it. It makes 3 x 12 inch pizza's. Marvellous. This is now my one and only pizza dough recipe. Lovely.

@John Kirkwood it's now been 4 years since I started my baking journey after watching one of your videos. I now bake my own bread, make my own recipes, and very rarely buy store bought bread! THANK YOU!
I made this bread yesterday. It’s absolutely delicious! I‘ve been searching for a good recipe for years and I’ve finally found it! Thank you for sharing your tips and recipes.
Thanks for watching Jennifer , much appreciated. Very kind comment thank you. I have plenty more bread and other recipes if you want to have a look. Please like share and subscribe for more great video recipes.
I made this John! Turned out wonderful! It didn’t look as pretty as yours. But tasted great! Once I master this one I’ll move on to another kind. Maybe the ciabatta!
If I wanted to add some herbs and maybe some garlic, how would I do that? Do you have a video?
Yes Tifani, use dried herbs and garlic powder, try a tsp of each at first then adjust to taste for the next loaf, hope this helps.😉👍😃
Made this loaf today after making fruit loaf a couple of days ago. Turned out perfectly, used to make my own bread but got out the habit. Thanks for the inspiration to get back into baking.
Nice one Ian. well done mate.
Hey John 👋🏻 I just made it and it’s just wonderful, thank you so much for your recipes and lessons I’m always enjoying watching your videos, thank you so much.
Nice job Black Rose, you are very welcome my friend.
i just made your bread in the mixer omg john it was the most delicious bread ive ever had , this was the first time i made it and have to say it was amazing tku so much, Im waiting for your profiteroles xxxx Im so glad you showe dthe yeast test i did that will two boxes and low and belhold i had a full tin but it was open and it was dead threw it away tku so much xxx hope you get well soon
Thank you. Yeah we had 2 main sayings in our work/commercial kitchens, No1 "Always test the yeast! before you start the recipe" 👍 No2 was "Kitchen pickers! wear big knickers" 😂👍.
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade lol kitchen pickers wear big knicker its been 30 odd years since ive heard that old saying your video always reminds me of my childhood which tbh makes me happy living in a foreign country, Your video keeps us going and i look forward to hearing you and your tips cant wait to see the éclair one theres so many tops ive learnt like the yeast test and to let the bread prove an inch higher than the bread tin which is invaluable advice xxxx
For anyone wanting a few written steps, I used the following with my stand mixer:
Take the ingredients as listed:
430g / 15.2 oz of Strong White Bread Flour
245g / 8½ oz of Warm Water 40°C / 104°F
20g / 1½ tbls of Vegetable or Olive Oil
7g / 1 heaped tsp of Active Dried Yeast
10g / 1½ tsp of Kosher Salt or 8g / 1 tsp of Table Salt
6g / 1 tsp of Granulated Sugar
Then:
Knead 10 minutes
First proof 30 minutes
Knock back
Shape and place in tin
Second proof 30 minutes, somewhere a little warm
Heat oven to 160c (fan assisted)
Sprinkle flour
Bake 10 mins
Turn 180 degrees
Bake for a further 20 minutes
Remove from tin and cool on a rack
ENJOY!
(Feel free to edit and use in description if you like John!)
Thanks my friend.
I just want to say that this bread is absolutely awesome. I just let mine rise sitting on the oven instead of putting it in the container in the sink, but it still turned out absolutely awesome! Love your videos!

Fantastic! I'm pleased you gave it a try my friend and it turned out well.
Love all your recipes John. FInally, mastered sour dough thanks to you. I want to make a 3lb loaf with this sandwich bread recipe . Could I half the recipe and add it to the full recipe to do this?
Thanks for watching Sue, much appreciated. I've done the conversions for you, only 2 ingredients stay the same, the yeast and sugar.
645g / 23 oz Strong White Bread Flour
367g / 12½ oz Warm Water 40°C / 104°F
30g / 2 tbls Vegetable or Olive Oil
7g / 1 heaped tsp of Active Dried Yeast
12g / 1½ tsp Salt
6g / 1 tsp Granulated Sugar
I made it this morning. Followed video recipe. Got a very nice loaf. Took me closer to 3 hours because my kitchen is at 20-21C. Thanks.
I made this bread and
1. It did not rise as much as yours and I used a brand new yeast to make it
2. The bread crust was chewy
I think it's because I left the top heating rods on.... I have an otg
(Oven Toaster Grill) and it works with some heating rods at the top and bottom...
Thanks again for watching Caleb.
Best explanation for bread making I have encountered so far. Will go through all your videos. Once again thank you. You deserve all the best.
Thank you so much 🙂 here are some bread making rules to follow.
1. Stick to the recipe rigidly, the quantities and ingredients are very important and carefully worked out for successful results.
2. Use digital SCALES for all of the measurements including weighing the WATER, IN GRAMS, NOT FLUID OUNCES, don't convert to cups or measuring jugs, they are too inaccurate. try to use bottled water if possible. Tap water contains chlorine, and in certain areas it is higher than others, which will weaken or even kill the yeast.
3. Use proper bread flour with at least 12% protein, check the ingredients list on the side of the flour bag for the protein level, protein may show in grams per serving but just work it out, it needs to be 12g of protein per 100g of flour. Plain or all purpose flour has a lower protein count and is great for pastries, cakes, and biscuits, but is NOT strong enough for making bread.
4. Very important...Check your yeast is working, BEFORE you start, you can do a yeast test as shown in my sandwich bread video here th-cam.com/video/HWpSbYV96_c/w-d-xo.html
100% wholemeal loaf coming soon :o)
I've just tried this making this loaf and followed your instructions to the letter. I'm used to working with a little more hydration when baking bread and I did get a little concerned when pulling the dough together at first, but I persevered and it all came together beautifully! My kitchen was a little cooler today so the proving took a bit longer but the end result was a cracking loaf! I even buttered the tin which I don't normally do and I think this really helped towards getting a crispy bottom! hahaha! The taste and the compliments were great and this easy little all-rounder loaf is now going to be a regular for sure. Thank you John!

Thank you for the videos and the tips, John. A couple of queries: What if I want to substitute the strong bread flour with whole wheat one for a healthier choice? Would the amount of water be the same or the ratio change? Also, what is the hydration ratio that applies to other breads -is there any guidance on that?

Now this one turns out fantastic for me my kids love it. Im making anotger today my 3rd.
Hello John, this is great bread. I make a loaf to this recipe every Monday. It is so good but for some reason, after I put it in my electric toaster the bread has a strange texture, It becomes close-grained with an almost brittle finish, it's as though the gluten melts. I know you'll say it's about accurate measurements but please be assured I am meticulous when following any of your recipes. I was given a sandwich at a friend's house recently and was surprised to discover it was made from a Waitrose Soft White Medium Sliced. Can I make such bread at home? What is the secret to making a white loaf that's perfect for toast, please?
Hi Bill. I've never really had a problem when toasting the bread. Also mass produced store bought bread has a lot of other ingredients to keep the breads shelf life longer and to keep it soft.
Hi Bill, I make this bread all the time and after 3 days on the counter I slice and wrap each slice individually with saran wrap and freeze in a freezer bag. Take out a slice at a time for toasting or thaw out for sandwiches. Hope this helps. Works perfect for me.
Thank you John for the tips with the yeast. I've just made 2 loaves and they haven't risen as much as i expected . I added the dried yeast to the flour, so I won't be doing this again . I will definitely prove the yeast first. Thank you for explaining so easily to follow. You have such a kind fatherly voice which is so comforting in these times.
Thank you for your kind words Ruth. 😁👍

Hi John, I was going to post my comments on your latest great video, but this is where it's relevant.
I hate you! (Only joking, read on...)
This recipe works fantasticly well and I have been making it every other day for the last few weeks. I have to, family won't touch the sliced stuff anymore!
First one didn't work out very well, it was quite dense and just about 'ok'. Similar to my previous efforts. Toasted, it was a struggle to eat the following day.
Second one I left to rise for a lot longer in the tin (tip here: use the timer as a guide, it may well take twice as long) until it looked like yours, and omg, wow!
Having made this a dozen times now, this is an absolute keeper. I know how to "tiger crust" it, but to be honest, for a general purpose sandwich/toast loaf it is a winner as it is.
So now I have to spend a couple of hours a week to keep making this. Arghhhh 😉🤣
But a huge THANK YOU JOHN, it definitely gets the thumbs up from us 👍🍻
😂🤣😂👍 Thanks George, now get cracking on the pitas, Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the website, Pita Bread profoodhomemade.com/pita-bread/
Made this just now. Right from the start i was on fhe wrong foot - not enough flour, then i messed up oven temp, had to go out and fetch a parcel and dogs got out. BUT following as closely as possible amidst the disasters the loaf still turned out FAB! Great stuff John. Off for a rest oh and a bit of bread.

Hi john, several months ago I bought your books. Well I finally got round to making the sandwich bread from book one. I made one mistake I put 450g of flour in instead of 430. Despite this the bread turned out great. Now to put this in to prospective. Over the years I have tried to make bread, every time it was a disaster. you have rekindled my desire to make more. As an ex pat now living in Florida good bread was hard to come by, not any more, thanks to you.

Fantastic pizza recipe coming soon too 😋👍
As previously stated I made this bread with success, I have since made a couple of batches. My wife loves it so we have decided that I am going to make on a regular basis. So my question to John is if I double the recipe do I double the yeast? FYI I joined a facebook group and posed this question. some said yes some said maybe, some answers went way over my head. So is there a simple answer yes or no?
Woohoo good thank you
