    Ever since I watched this the first time a couple months ago, I've been making these loaves once a week. My adult children beg me for them. Absolutely the easiest recipe and so rewarding to smell that yeast and know you did it yourself. I no longer buy bread from the store. Thank you so much!

    As a professional baker I have one tip angle your knife at 1:00-7:00 with a super sharp knife so the bread doesn’t pull and you will be amazed at how beautiful it makes it. The bread will kind of bloom in the cuts and it’s beautiful. Purely decorative though but not to be overlooked because we eat with our eyes ❤️ I’m going to try your recipe today.. this video made me hungry lol

    I live at sea level and it is humid here. It took several tries but I finally got great results. I used your recipe except I add 1 egg. I let the yeast proof for at least 10 minutes. I let the bread rise long enough to triple in size, and then I proof the loaves for at least an hour. Adding the egg created an unbelievable amount of rise, and it seems to make the crust a little crispier.
    We’ve also experimented with adding a tiny bit (less than a teaspoon) of apple cider vinegar to the dough - seems to give it more of a fermented taste.

    I was always taught that your liquid should be “body temp” to be perfect to develop/activate the yeast without killing it.😉 I LOVE making homemade bread. I’m lazy though so I use my Kitchaide with a dough hook. Another tip that works for me is if you kitchen is too cold to proof; put a mug of water in your microwave for a min or 2, push it to the back & now you have a warm moist enclosed area to proof!🤘🏻

    • @cjennmom
      @cjennmom 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The best temp. to proof yeast is 105-115 F. I try to aim for 110 to be safe. It works great since I got an infrared thermometer for my soaping, it's the same deal - point, click, read. :)

    • @vegangelist
      @vegangelist 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I concur that 105-115 is the right temp for the water in this recipe, because you are proofing the yeast by adding it directly to liquid.
      If you are mixing the yeast with dry ingredients and then adding water, you can go up in temp to about 115-125.

    But I made some last week and some this week and it's so yummy I'll never buy store bread again that I know of .
    I put my in a 9by 12 cake pan and it comes out huge loaf plus big enough for a sandwich one slice.
    Thank you so much for sharing I put my bread picture on my FB and people want the recipe so I shared with everyone that asked.
    It's so moist frenchy and spongy and flakey best bread I have made.
    I love white bread and the stake rye is one of my favorites along with sourdough bread and Italian.

    I see mention of baking stones. I got mine custom cut years ago at a website that also provides pizzarias called bakingstone. They come in 1/2" and 5/8" thick. They do carry standard sizes. Mine is 5/8" and works perfectly. If you plan to make pizza, you need a thick stone to hold enough heat to give you a great crust. Do'nt forget to let the stone recover between pizzas.

Above all the title of the vedio doesn't match the prosedur ( concerning the time mentioned just to attract the people interested in preparing bread dough ).
      And concerning compliments, I think she deserves something more valuable than that Simply because it was all done by her. And calling her queen of yeast is not a compliment infact it is an insult .

      it's 2 years late so this is for those still looking for an answer in the future (cool huh? Speaking to the future!)
      I'm no expert but there are a few reasons I can think offhand. You may need a warmer raising environment. I heat a cup of water 5 min on high in my microwave then use the microwave as my warm environment. Not too hot not too cold. The other thing is, instant yeast requires hotter water than active dry yeast: 120F.
      Whereas, active requires about 80-85F I believe. Check the yeast company 's website when in doubt. For active dry yeast, I run tap water until it just feels hot then catch it in my measuring cup.
      Big thanks out for the tutorial. As usual there's always something to learn. 30 cents is very impressive and whoa nelly, I thought I was supposed to knead it with elbow grease! That explains a lot ;-) thanks

I yanked the dough out and put into a bowl covered with oil and I covered it and let it rise double and then I rolled it out like you did and cut it in half lengthwise and then rolled it up and put it on the pan... covered it with a warm wet paper towel rung out and then after rising again...baked it. OMG... Vegetable soup fresh French bread on a cold snowy day and butter oh I am filthy Rich today thank you for putting this out it kind of gave me that confidence to at least try it!
