To anyone that is having issues with a flatter loaf, I have some suggestions. Firstly, I have made this recipe tons of times to figure this out. (At least 20 times now). The place where I live is pretty humid, and the flour absorbs some of that moisture. My loaf would never get as big as his, and when mixing, a majority of the dough would be in the bottom of the mixing bowl with the dough hook attachment just mixing the top half. Please take the advice of John first: Weigh your ingredients, and use bread flour (higher protein content than all purpose). I started lowering the amount of water I was adding, and arrived at 280 grams of water as opposed to the 310 grams he states in the recipe. My loaf now looks like his with a beautiful rise and texture. I lowered my water content by 10 grams per attempt. i.e.- 300g, 290g, 280g. Don't give up on this loaf! Easily the most delicious bread I have ever made.
A good way to make the bread stand up tall and not spread sideways is to create tension on top of the loaf. I like to drag the bottom of the dough on a surface without flour and the top tenses up nicely into a tight dough ball.. Also, I noticed that the scores on the loaf were wider if I created tension.
Thank you, yes I have been having the flat loaf issue despite attempting the tight tension as described below so will lower water content next time, current loaf is rising in the bowl so a bit late to do it today.
That’s very interesting. I’ve been making bread for a long time, but today has been disaster after disaster. The dough seemed quite sticky. It was a new bag of flour. Also I’m wondering if to use the oven without the fan setting. Any ideas would be appreciate. Thank you
In the nicest possible way, you are doing something very wrong. John is already using a low hydration, that's baker speak for low levels of water. With a good bread flour this recipe is a lot better with 350g of water and with a decent all purpose flour 325g would be a minimum. Damp air can lead to an increase of 3% moisture in your flour, and it will spoil rather quickly if it is more than that. So, perhaps you could reduce the water by 15g, but as John is low on his water anyway... Look to your kneading and gluten development. Poor gluten development is the most likely cause of your issue. I'm not criticising John here by the way, he bakes in a 1980's style and he does that well. And, whilst I am here, drop the oil and replace it with 25g butter. Butter helps the dough hold gas and gives a good mouthfeel to the finished loaf. Vegetable oil diminishes the ability of the dough to hold gas. Good baking to you.
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Oh, John, I've just seen that this s from four years ago! Your baking has moved well beyond what you were doing here. My apologies, but as a regular Bloomer baker, this was still an exceptionally good video to watch. Msinly to see how you got that excellent traditional bloomer crumb. Wishing you a great Christmas dear lovely man.
Hi John.. I’m a trained chef also but never tried my hand at baking.. I’ve just celebrated my birthday on 8th November n decided to ask the wife for a mixer so I could try my hand at it a bit.. I looked on TH-cam for inspiration and came across your video at the top of the list and to say I was inspired would be understating it! Your instructions are so precise and easy to follow and I’ve just made the nicest bread I’ve EVER tasted.. thank you SO much.. you, Sir, are a legend!!

Hi John made the old fashion bloomer loaf this morning, a request from my Son who was visiting today, wow the loaf was enormous, a real family loaf, it looked amazing, my Daughter in Law said it tasted brilliant. I've tried baking bread before years ago unsuccessfully, but since watching your TH-cam videos, the different types of bread I've made have turned out much better than shop bought bread. Thanks John I'm passing the message on to friends to tune into your channel. 🍻

At 71 years old, I have been baking for decades but I only stick to a few tried and tested recipes and ones I know work out well. Bread is one thing I rarely make as it intimidates me a bit. I'm making this bloomer recipe right now and although the dough is beautiful, it hasn't risen as well as Johns but my house is quite cool due to the time of year. I started it at 9am and it's just gone in the oven now so 9 hours! I'm sure it'll still be delicious and I will be having it with the homemade butter that I made yesterday which was a definite success!
Fantastic! I'm pleased you gave it a try my friend and it turned out well. Here is my latest video recipe. Savoury Cheese Scones profoodhomemade.com/savoury-cheese-scones/

Thanks for such great achievable recipes. Real confidence boosters. You mentioned how your oven temperature heats higher than expected. Thats one of the biggest tips you gave me. I just got a new oven and getting used to it is a learning curve for everything I’m baking. One side is hotter than the other. Cakes and breads I’ve been baking with good success in my old oven are a bit of trial and error in this new one!
I've never heard of a Bloomer loaf before, so I tried making this over the weekend and it turned out great. The loaf was quite a bit larger than I thought it would be! And it had such a nice crust and soft texture inside! Thank you again for another wonderful recipe! P.S. I've become a Patreon subscriber--it's only fair, since you've saved me so much money over the last several months with your tutorials. Since I found your channel I rarely buy bread from stores any more.

Chef John, I made this loaf this afternoon, and it turned out perfectly. It has delightful and unusually delicious flavor and texture. I look forward to the next loaf being for our church potluck. What I appreciate most about your videos and your instructions is that my attempts look exactly the same as what you present in your videos. With many other TH-cam cooking videos I find I get half-way throught it, and what I've produced looks nothing like what the TH-camr has done. Not so with your videos; what you make is what we get. Watching your videos and reading your cook books is an excellent cooking education-"professional food homemade." Thanks, very much, for your work.

Hi, John, I made bloomers (2 times), both times is not like yours. I added 310g of water, my dough was too soft, bloomer little bit flat. (I use UK strong bread flour, as normal) Normally l make your bread, bun recipes. They come perfectly. I always try your recipes especially bread recipes. Many thanks.
It is a sticky dough Aruni, but you should be able to easily handle it as the video clearly shows, the more you knead the dough the easier it gets, are you kneading it for the full length of time, that's very important to the finished bread are you using fresh or dried yeast? if you are using fresh yeast take 20 grams of water off the recipe, lastly have you tested your yeast?.
Thank you for your kind words SS. And thanks for watching my friend. My latest video recipe. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Steak pasties profoodhomemade.com/steak-pasties/
I had a similar problem, and it was my scales and yeast. Try replacing the battery in your scales, and weighing everything twice, and getting finer yeast. I found the breadmaker yeast too coarse and would have lumps of it flecked through the loaf. Once I did that, bloomers rose a treat!
Is your kitchen too cold ? When I made my first bloomer it rose above the rim of two pint pot but the second didn't rise as well but my third one was as good as first I made sure my kitchen was warm and I put it in microwave to rise (no draft) don't turn microwave on tho 😁
Freestanding loaves are more challenging to get it to rise properly. Try using some tension on the top of the dough by dragging the dough towards you along the table to create a tight, smooth surface on top. That way, it'll rise up, not spread sideways.
Hello John. Really enjoy the videos. I appreciate ingredients by weight, I learned that lesson in bakers math. I notice every time you pop something in the oven the Dutch oven is always there. Is this how you store it? If so, what effect does heating and cooling have on the seasoning?
Thanks for watching micstica, much appreciated. Very kind, thank you 😃😉👍. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/ Dutch Oven, Whenever I've finish using the dutch oven I clean it and give it a very thin coat of vegetable oil, and store it in the bottom of the oven so the heat when I'm cooking other stuff keeps it well seasoned as in non stick.

Good luck Susie. First!! go through my 4 main bread making rules below, especially 2 and 3. 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

Hi John. Thank you for what you do. I've made 4 of these bloomers now to your exact measurements, rise times, cook time, all of it. And they are the best bread I've ever had. But while they all ended up full-size length and width, they were only 2 -1/2" - 3" thick! I'm hand kneading the dough for at least 10 minutes but even then it doesn't seem to take on the completely smooth and elastic exterior of the ball. I've been very careful to shape the loaf so the seam is under and the outer surface is smooth and it's oval-y. But flatten out, it does. In any case, we all love this recipe as well as the no-knead white bread. Cheers.

@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade black bread sounds interesting, can't wait :-) In Germany black bread is made from coarse rye flour mixed with a little wheat or more, depending on the region. Has to be fermented well. I bake mine in the dutch oven. The crunchy crust depends on the wheat content. Less wheat, less crunch.

So handsdown I made the very best bread I have ever had. And my brother wouldn't have been able to take the loaf out and play hockey with it like he did when I was a teen I wanted a perfect bread to try adding polish to and found that recipein John's cool book..

a wonderful looking loaf john, i didnt realise there were a different recipe for the different types of bread,you are certainly teaching me how to make lovely bread thankyou
Hi John i tried making bread and was never satisfied with the result. That changed yesterday ! I made your Bloomer Loaf and it came out absolutely gorgeous the smell and taste is amazing . Thank you for teaching me the right way to make this bread.I love your videos and will soon try making the baguette.
Great job! Some baguette info before you start. Thanks for watching, much appreciated. Before starting go through my 4 main bread making rules below, especially No 2 and 3. There are many! many! more quicker bread recipes on the channel, checkout my bread making playlist here th-cam.com/play/PLUISvii9kE48PCHhfGE2ZJ3BmfZlCU36V.html Here is the written recipe on the channels website profoodhomemade.com/beautiful-french-bagettes/ Please checkout the channels new recipe Book, available now in the website shop here profoodhomemade.com/shop Just a little extra information to help you along if you do try these baguettes. Please follow these 4 simple rules when making these baguettes. Give me a comment if you need any more help. 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. 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 have recently uploaded a clearer and quicker version of my baguette recipe if you want to have a look, here's a link, th-cam.com/video/f0RjnQGrwzw/w-d-xo.html There is also a great recipe for Ciabatta rolls on my channel too th-cam.com/video/_Iod0m7rDyY/w-d-xo.html Please check out the rest of my channel and playlists for more great video recipes. th-cam.com/users/jonboy2478 I have plenty more quicker and no knead breads, cake, cheese, and other recipes on my channel, if you would like to take a look.

I'm so excited!. I cut the bloomer dough in half to make 2 smaller loaves. I spread them with a little butter and sesame seeds and I SCORED THEM. It's very first time to score bread.

John -- my kids now walk around the house with REALLY bad British accents saying "Hi, my name's John, I'm a retired chef living in northern England and here is another bread recipe".
I didn't know where to start John. So many great recipes to choose from. So I started with the Bloomer, and it turned out amazing! Thank you for helping me make my first successful bread! I've tried several times over the years and had mostly quite terrible results. I can't wait to try the French baguette and Ciabatta recipes.
Made my third bloomer today and have also made quite a few of your wholewheat loaves too! Really glad I found your channel John, I've found a love for bread baking. Thank you!
Thanks Bridget, much appreciated. my latest video, Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Crusty bread rolls profoodhomemade.com/crusty-bread-rolls/
Thanks for this fantastic bread recipe. It was delicious. At first I thought I messed up with the measurements coz my scale is not as fancy as yours. While my dough was at d mixer I’ve been mixing it for more that 10 mins and was still sticky and stick at d sides of the bowl. I was so scared. But I floured it more on the counter while kneading and it worked. Proofed it for 2 hours than d usual hour. It stayed n rises well. Thanks John!

I love this bread. Easy and delicious. I love it toasted with butter and jam or a grilled sandwich. Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. Thanks Chef.
Thank you for these beautiful recipes and Greetings from Michigan, USA! I've just ordered your cookbook and am on my way to the kitchen to start the Sourdough Sandwich Loaf and while that's fermenting, I'll make this Rustic Bloomer. So happy to have discovered you! I'm recently retired and also discovered sourdough - which has become an addiction :). Had I worked with sourdough earlier in my life, I've no doubt that my career would have taken a much happier and different path!
Thank you, Mr Kirkwood. I just subscribed to your channel about a week ago. I like baking especially bread...so I have been checking out your videos. I really like the way you make things so uncomplicated...thanks for that. I pulled this Bloomer loaf out of the oven about an hour ago, now I'm having a slice with my salad for lunch. Mr Kirkwood this bread is fantastic! It is so good. I weighed everything just like you did...carefully following the directions. thank you again! Can't wait to try another recipe. Faye from USA .

Have taken up baking since watching your amazing videos John and have made a good few of your recipes and love all of them. My 15 year old grandson Carl has even joined in and made the Bloomer and Foccacia. This has been a godsend during the lockdown and I haven’t bought bread or cakes for weeks. Have purchased a few of your kitchen utensils, recipe books and sourdough starter for a few of the family (makes us look professional) 😁. Your voice is so calming too. Keep up the good work.

Hi John, Good day to you from Chicago area! Many of nights I watched your videos when I was sick and couldn’t do much of anything else. Always “planning” on making one of your wonderful looking breads! Got a bit better and went to local home store and purchased every thing I might not have had ie plastic shower cap lol and scale and other things of course than I got a lil bit better and started working again and bought a fan assisted double oven! Oh I’m going to make some great bread! Then life happened and it was work home sleep. I woke up in the middle of the night your channel popped up, sad to say it’s been nearly a year. I realized I have to stop and smell the bread. Your methodical voice calms me. You could do ASMRs and do well. Thank you for doing you!!

This bread came out/was fantastic👌 I recommend to put it back in the oven at 200degrees for a couple of minutes if you dont eat it right away. That way it really got a perfect crust. My husband loved it👏
Mine is proving as we speak. Many thanks, John. Looks like another winner. As always, my wife is the ultimate judge of my baking! 😆 Don't think she'll be disappointed with this one. Great to see your channel doing so well, my friend. Certainly deserved.

Hi John, Thank you very much for the recipe, I never tasted a Bloomer in my life, but I decided to bake it based on your recipe, and it worked. Thank you very much.
Thanks for watching John, much appreciated. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
Also, John... I baked 6 loaves for a church potluck today after service today... I came home with crumbs and rave reviews! (I gave you credit!) It might be a difference of climate or flour... but I had to back off to 280g of water. I live in Colorado, USA.
Well done with the recipe Stu, and I'm pleased it was a success. But you shouldn't have to change the recipe no matter where you live, 30 grams less water is a huge amount to lose in a small recipe like this. The dough will be very sticky at the start but it gets much easier to handle after the kneading.
This looks very delicious. It reminds me a little bit of what we have here in the United States. We call it a Vienna loaf. Sometimes you can put sesame seeds on top or not. But it looks absolutely delicious. When I was in England, I tried a commercial version of this made from the Sunblest Bread Company. I don't know if they're still in existence, but it was very good.
Yes they are still going, Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
Dear John, it's so pleasant to listen to you. I will bake this bread. It reminds me of my childhood. I can't buy something like that anywhere nowadays. Thank you very much for the recipe.
I have now made this loaf twice, the first time was delicious with an amazing crust but I shaped it badly so it spread sideways so then had to transfer it to a tin. Next time I did a bit of research on getting the bread tension right and wow what a loaf. As per usual I used my bread maker to do all the hard work and I finished it off and baked it, really delicious and I guess the oil made it last very well, thank you again.

To anyone that is having issues with a flatter loaf, I have some suggestions. Firstly, I have made this recipe tons of times to figure this out. (At least 20 times now). The place where I live is pretty humid, and the flour absorbs some of that moisture. My loaf would never get as big as his, and when mixing, a majority of the dough would be in the bottom of the mixing bowl with the dough hook attachment just mixing the top half. Please take the advice of John first: Weigh your ingredients, and use bread flour (higher protein content than all purpose). I started lowering the amount of water I was adding, and arrived at 280 grams of water as opposed to the 310 grams he states in the recipe. My loaf now looks like his with a beautiful rise and texture. I lowered my water content by 10 grams per attempt. i.e.- 300g, 290g, 280g. Don't give up on this loaf! Easily the most delicious bread I have ever made.
Very kind, thank you Micah.
A good way to make the bread stand up tall and not spread sideways is to create tension on top of the loaf. I like to drag the bottom of the dough on a surface without flour and the top tenses up nicely into a tight dough ball.. Also, I noticed that the scores on the loaf were wider if I created tension.
Thank you, yes I have been having the flat loaf issue despite attempting the tight tension as described below so will lower water content next time, current loaf is rising in the bowl so a bit late to do it today.
That’s very interesting. I’ve been making bread for a long time, but today has been disaster after disaster. The dough seemed quite sticky. It was a new bag of flour. Also I’m wondering if to use the oven without the fan setting. Any ideas would be appreciate. Thank you
In the nicest possible way, you are doing something very wrong. John is already using a low hydration, that's baker speak for low levels of water. With a good bread flour this recipe is a lot better with 350g of water and with a decent all purpose flour 325g would be a minimum.
Damp air can lead to an increase of 3% moisture in your flour, and it will spoil rather quickly if it is more than that. So, perhaps you could reduce the water by 15g, but as John is low on his water anyway...
Look to your kneading and gluten development. Poor gluten development is the most likely cause of your issue.
I'm not criticising John here by the way, he bakes in a 1980's style and he does that well.
And, whilst I am here, drop the oil and replace it with 25g butter. Butter helps the dough hold gas and gives a good mouthfeel to the finished loaf. Vegetable oil diminishes the ability of the dough to hold gas.
Good baking to you.
Making and eating one's own homemade bread is so satisfying on so many levels. Thanks again, John, for your patient tutelage.
Thanks again for watching John, very kind. Here's the ingredients list and full written recipe on the website profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Oh, John, I've just seen that this s from four years ago!
Your baking has moved well beyond what you were doing here.
My apologies, but as a regular Bloomer baker, this was still an exceptionally good video to watch. Msinly to see how you got that excellent traditional bloomer crumb.
Wishing you a great Christmas dear lovely man.
Hi John.. I’m a trained chef also but never tried my hand at baking.. I’ve just celebrated my birthday on 8th November n decided to ask the wife for a mixer so I could try my hand at it a bit.. I looked on TH-cam for inspiration and came across your video at the top of the list and to say I was inspired would be understating it!
Your instructions are so precise and easy to follow and I’ve just made the nicest bread I’ve EVER tasted.. thank you SO much.. you, Sir, are a legend!!

Hi John made the old fashion bloomer loaf this morning, a request from my Son who was visiting today, wow the loaf was enormous, a real family loaf, it looked amazing, my Daughter in Law said it tasted brilliant. I've tried baking bread before years ago unsuccessfully, but since watching your TH-cam videos, the different types of bread I've made have turned out much better than shop bought bread. Thanks John I'm passing the message on to friends to tune into your channel. 🍻

Thank you so much, It really helps keep the channel going.
At 71 years old, I have been baking for decades but I only stick to a few tried and tested recipes and ones I know work out well. Bread is one thing I rarely make as it intimidates me a bit. I'm making this bloomer recipe right now and although the dough is beautiful, it hasn't risen as well as Johns but my house is quite cool due to the time of year. I started it at 9am and it's just gone in the oven now so 9 hours! I'm sure it'll still be delicious and I will be having it with the homemade butter that I made yesterday which was a definite success!

@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade Website looks great John. You really are providing a great education for a lot of people. I consider myself a fairly good bread baker and I've already picked up quite a few useful tips from you. I see a lot of people making videos here in the U.S., but very few explain things so well. You really have a gift for teaching. All the best for you and your lovely wife from across the pond.

Hi John, I am an advertising guy who took to home baking during the lockdown. Your recipes are accurate and the instructions are so precise that I have literally learnt baking from your videos. The bloomer loafs are particularly a major hit with everyone. Thanks

Thanks for such great achievable recipes. Real confidence boosters. You mentioned how your oven temperature heats higher than expected. Thats one of the biggest tips you gave me. I just got a new oven and getting used to it is a learning curve for everything I’m baking. One side is hotter than the other. Cakes and breads I’ve been baking with good success in my old oven are a bit of trial and error in this new one!
I've never heard of a Bloomer loaf before, so I tried making this over the weekend and it turned out great. The loaf was quite a bit larger than I thought it would be! And it had such a nice crust and soft texture inside! Thank you again for another wonderful recipe!
P.S. I've become a Patreon subscriber--it's only fair, since you've saved me so much money over the last several months with your tutorials. Since I found your channel I rarely buy bread from stores any more.
Yeah BBT, it's deceiving the size of it on video, they are quite big.
Thank you so much for your patronage support, very welcome and really does help me keep going, everyone's been so kind.
If you want you can you email me with the name your under on Patreon as I can't see BBT over there. you can find my address on the website contact page here profoodhomemade.com/youtube/
I have just made this wonderful loaf for the very first time, and cannot believe how well it turned out. (Have taken a picture, but don't know how to upload). I have knife at the ready .... for a slice in 20 mins.

Chef John,
I made this loaf this afternoon, and it turned out perfectly. It has delightful and unusually delicious flavor and texture. I look forward to the next loaf being for our church potluck.
What I appreciate most about your videos and your instructions is that my attempts look exactly the same as what you present in your videos. With many other TH-cam cooking videos I find I get half-way throught it, and what I've produced looks nothing like what the TH-camr has done. Not so with your videos; what you make is what we get. Watching your videos and reading your cook books is an excellent cooking education-"professional food homemade." Thanks, very much, for your work.
Thank you for your kind words, Phil. I'm pleased you gave it a try my friend and it turned out well.

Hi John, I've made a few Bloomer's in my day But not as good as your one , All the Best Brian 🤗
Thanks again for watching Brian. Here's the ingredients list and full written recipe on the website for the bloomer profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
Hi, John, I made bloomers (2 times), both times is not like yours. I added 310g of water, my dough was too soft, bloomer little bit flat. (I use UK strong bread flour, as normal) Normally l make your bread, bun recipes. They come perfectly. I always try your recipes especially bread recipes. Many thanks.
It is a sticky dough Aruni, but you should be able to easily handle it as the video clearly shows, the more you knead the dough the easier it gets, are you kneading it for the full length of time, that's very important to the finished bread are you using fresh or dried yeast? if you are using fresh yeast take 20 grams of water off the recipe, lastly have you tested your yeast?.
Everytime I watch your videos,I learn something new. You are a great teacher Mr John.
Thank you for your kind words SS. And thanks for watching my friend. My latest video recipe. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Steak pasties profoodhomemade.com/steak-pasties/
John I've failed again with your bloomer, just can't get any rise when proofing, back to your tinned sandwich loaf which is excellent and foolproof!
Aww, bad luck Neil.
I had a similar problem, and it was my scales and yeast. Try replacing the battery in your scales, and weighing everything twice, and getting finer yeast. I found the breadmaker yeast too coarse and would have lumps of it flecked through the loaf. Once I did that, bloomers rose a treat!
Is your kitchen too cold ? When I made my first bloomer it rose above the rim of two pint pot but the second didn't rise as well but my third one was as good as first I made sure my kitchen was warm and I put it in microwave to rise (no draft) don't turn microwave on tho 😁
Freestanding loaves are more challenging to get it to rise properly. Try using some tension on the top of the dough by dragging the dough towards you along the table to create a tight, smooth surface on top. That way, it'll rise up, not spread sideways.
John , your recipes are so foolproof .... I just received my cookbooks... then re-ordered them for my son , Sam !! thank you mate
Thanks again Carl, much appreciated mate, hope you and Sam find them useful.
Hello John. Really enjoy the videos. I appreciate ingredients by weight, I learned that lesson in bakers math. I notice every time you pop something in the oven the Dutch oven is always there. Is this how you store it? If so, what effect does heating and cooling have on the seasoning?
Thanks for watching micstica, much appreciated. Very kind, thank you 😃😉👍.
Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
Dutch Oven, Whenever I've finish using the dutch oven I clean it and give it a very thin coat of vegetable oil, and store it in the bottom of the oven so the heat when I'm cooking other stuff keeps it well seasoned as in non stick.

Good luck Susie.
First!! go through my 4 main bread making rules below, especially 2 and 3.
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
Another brilliant recipe John, just wondering do you have a recipe for Naan bread..?

Good morning 🌻Tq for sharing
Hi John. Thank you for what you do. I've made 4 of these bloomers now to your exact measurements, rise times, cook time, all of it. And they are the best bread I've ever had. But while they all ended up full-size length and width, they were only 2 -1/2" - 3" thick! I'm hand kneading the dough for at least 10 minutes but even then it doesn't seem to take on the completely smooth and elastic exterior of the ball. I've been very careful to shape the loaf so the seam is under and the outer surface is smooth and it's oval-y. But flatten out, it does. In any case, we all love this recipe as well as the no-knead white bread. Cheers.
Here is some advice Greg as there could be a few factors.

Hey, remember me? Asking for black bread, crunchy just like this one :))
I haven't forgotten Ceviz, working on it 👍 Here's the ingredients list and full written recipe on the website profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade thanks, waiting for it. Do we know when?
I'll let you know when.
@@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade black bread sounds interesting, can't wait :-) In Germany black bread is made from coarse rye flour mixed with a little wheat or more, depending on the region. Has to be fermented well. I bake mine in the dutch oven. The crunchy crust depends on the wheat content. Less wheat, less crunch.
Great video - I made my dough in the bread machine as I didn’t have much time today. Followed you from the final prove. Thank you
Thank goodness that I’m too lazy to cook, otherwise this channel could be the reason for me to gain another 10 pounds😉

Hi John, my 12yr old granddaughter made this loaf yesterday. It's the first time she's made bread and it turned out absolutely beautiful!

So handsdown I made the very best bread I have ever had. And my brother wouldn't have been able to take the loaf out and play hockey with it like he did when I was a teen I wanted a perfect bread to try adding polish to and found that recipein John's cool book.. Swapped out melted butter for oil (personally don't like olive oil) this word out to be the most favourable bread I've ever had! Soooooo good. Ty so much! 💓

I just try your recipe but with all purpose flour and it came out pretty good. I try Paul Hollywood’s blooming bread and it didn’t come out as well. I think I didn’t have measurements which you were great with the information. Thank you.
Thanks for watching Minga, much appreciated. Very kind, thank you 😃😉👍.
Please follow the 4 main bread making rules below, especially No3
Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
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 the water, don't convert to cups or measuring jugs, they are too inaccurate.
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 done this 3 times now and I can honestly say it's the best bread I have ever made, the bread is so light and tasty, absolutely fabulous
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm so excited!. I cut the bloomer dough in half to make 2 smaller loaves. I spread them with a little butter and sesame seeds and I SCORED THEM. It's very first time to score bread.
Nice job Mindy, the more you practise the better you get. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
This came out PERFECTLY the first time. Such an easy recipe too. My family loves it. Thanks John!
You are so welcome David! and thanks again for your very kind support, it is much appreciated.
John -- my kids now walk around the house with REALLY bad British accents saying "Hi, my name's John, I'm a retired chef living in northern England and here is another bread recipe".
I didn't know where to start John. So many great recipes to choose from. So I started with the Bloomer, and it turned out amazing! Thank you for helping me make my first successful bread!
I've tried several times over the years and had mostly quite terrible results. I can't wait to try the French baguette and Ciabatta recipes.
Good luck with your future bread projects M, and thanks for watching it is much appreciated my friend 😉
Made my third bloomer today and have also made quite a few of your wholewheat loaves too! Really glad I found your channel John, I've found a love for bread baking. Thank you!
Thanks Bridget, much appreciated. my latest video, Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Crusty bread rolls profoodhomemade.com/crusty-bread-rolls/
Thanks for this fantastic bread recipe. It was delicious. At first I thought I messed up with the measurements coz my scale is not as fancy as yours. While my dough was at d mixer I’ve been mixing it for more that 10 mins and was still sticky and stick at d sides of the bowl. I was so scared. But I floured it more on the counter while kneading and it worked. Proofed it for 2 hours than d usual hour. It stayed n rises well. Thanks John!
Thanks again for watching Nat, much appreciated, I'm pleased it came out good mate. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/

Thank you so much Vindu 😊. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
I love this bread. Easy and delicious. I love it toasted with butter and jam or a grilled sandwich. Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. Thanks Chef.
👍😉😀
Thank you for these beautiful recipes and Greetings from Michigan, USA! I've just ordered your cookbook and am on my way to the kitchen to start the Sourdough Sandwich Loaf and while that's fermenting, I'll make this Rustic Bloomer. So happy to have discovered you! I'm recently retired and also discovered sourdough - which has become an addiction :). Had I worked with sourdough earlier in my life, I've no doubt that my career would have taken a much happier and different path!
Thanks for watching and the order Dawn, good luck with the bread my friend.
👍😉
Thank you, Mr Kirkwood. I just subscribed to your channel about a week ago. I like baking especially bread...so I have been checking out your videos. I really like the way you make things so uncomplicated...thanks for that.
I pulled this Bloomer loaf out of the oven about an hour ago, now I'm having a slice with my salad for lunch.
Mr Kirkwood this bread is fantastic! It is so good. I weighed everything just like you did...carefully following the directions.
thank you again! Can't wait to try another recipe.

Have taken up baking since watching your amazing videos John and have made a good few of your recipes and love all of them. My 15 year old grandson Carl has even joined in and made the Bloomer and Foccacia. This has been a godsend during the lockdown and I haven’t bought bread or cakes for weeks. Have purchased a few of your kitchen utensils, recipe books and sourdough starter for a few of the family (makes us look professional) 😁. Your voice is so calming too. Keep up the good work. Regards Patricia Keir
Thanks for watching Patricia, much appreciated. Pleased you are enjoying the channel.
I tried this today, it turned out great. Best bread I've ever made 😃 Thanks, I couldn't have done it without you!

Hi John, Good day to you from Chicago area! Many of nights I watched your videos when I was sick and couldn’t do much of anything else. Always “planning” on making one of your wonderful looking breads! Got a bit better and went to local home store and purchased every thing I might not have had ie plastic shower cap lol and scale and other things of course than I got a lil bit better and started working again and bought a fan assisted double oven! Oh I’m going to make some great bread! Then life happened and it was work home sleep. I woke up in the middle of the night your channel popped up, sad to say it’s been nearly a year. I realized I have to stop and smell the bread. Your methodical voice calms me. You could do ASMRs and do well. Thank you for doing you!!
Thanks for watching Teresa, much appreciated. Very kind comment Teresa, I pleased you're over your illness, I know exactly how that feels these past couple of years, I pleased your enjoying the videos, even if it is just watching at the moment. Great choc chip Oatmeal cookie recipe coming very soon, you should be able to knock this one up in 25 minutes, 😃😉👍.

Comes in very handy.
Wonderful video, Chef John. My husband and I stumbled upon your channel tonight and are so glad we did! So clear, concise, and easy to follow. You have a fabulously soothing voice as well. You have earned a new subscriber. May God Bless You!

This bread came out/was fantastic👌
I recommend to put it back in the oven at 200degrees for a couple of minutes if you dont eat it right away. That way it really got a perfect crust. My husband loved it👏
Thanks again for watching my friend. well done, good job.
Mine is proving as we speak. Many thanks, John. Looks like another winner. As always, my wife is the ultimate judge of my baking! 😆 Don't think she'll be disappointed with this one.
Great to see your channel doing so well, my friend. Certainly deserved.
Thanks again for watching and the kind comment DG, much appreciated.
Another brilliant recipe! I can't even begin to say how perfect this bread came out. Thanks John

Hi John, Thank you very much for the recipe, I never tasted a Bloomer in my life, but I decided to bake it based on your recipe, and it worked. Thank you very much.
Fantastic job Mo, well done mate.
I am so happy with your bread recipes easy to follow with a fantastic result thank you so much
Thanks for watching John, much appreciated. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
Also, John... I baked 6 loaves for a church potluck today after service today... I came home with crumbs and rave reviews! (I gave you credit!) It might be a difference of climate or flour... but I had to back off to 280g of water. I live in Colorado, USA.
Well done with the recipe Stu, and I'm pleased it was a success. But you shouldn't have to change the recipe no matter where you live, 30 grams less water is a huge amount to lose in a small recipe like this. The dough will be very sticky at the start but it gets much easier to handle after the kneading.
This looks very delicious. It reminds me a little bit of what we have here in the United States. We call it a Vienna loaf. Sometimes you can put sesame seeds on top or not. But it looks absolutely delicious. When I was in England, I tried a commercial version of this made from the Sunblest Bread Company. I don't know if they're still in existence, but it was very good.
Yes they are still going, Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
John I made the Bloomer Loaf Monday it was still fresh today Saturday, the loaf makes fantastic toast.
Yes Heather, it really is a fantastic bread.
Dear John, it's so pleasant to listen to you. I will bake this bread. It reminds me of my childhood.
I can't buy something like that anywhere nowadays. Thank you very much for the recipe.
Thanks again for watching Rolf. Here's the ingredients list and full written recipe on the website profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
A perfect loaf...........excellent baker and experienced!
Very kind. Here is the ingredients list and full written method on the channels website, Bloomer bread profoodhomemade.com/bloomer-loaf/
I have now made this loaf twice, the first time was delicious with an amazing crust but I shaped it badly so it spread sideways so then had to transfer it to a tin. Next time I did a bit of research on getting the bread tension right and wow what a loaf. As per usual I used my bread maker to do all the hard work and I finished it off and baked it, really delicious and I guess the oil made it last very well, thank you again.
Fantastic! I'm pleased you gave it a try my friend and it turned out well. 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/
