Seriously right? This lady loves bread - she has so much of it in her house. Why am I still watching this? Does she make sandwiches or does she eat all that bread with just butter? Why is her enthusiasm making me want to eat bread when I don’t even like bread?
The old commercial back in the day... Doctor I SMELL BURNED TOAST!!! I SMELL BURNED TOAST... Some reason she was really happy to smell burned toast while having brain surgery. 🧠
@@beccasmama63 I’m assuming you’re referring to the artisan bread toast? Because the first piece of toast definitely was not burnt. Yeah- I find that no matter what toaster I use or which setting, the ends and edges always get a bit black before the middle gets toasted. Idk why that type of bread always does that, but even the $180 kitchen aid toaster I had that was designed for large artisan loaf pieces of bread, the ends were always darker than the middle!
Emmy! There’s a “steamer plate” from Daiso that you can use to achieve the same effect. It’s a small dish you fill with water and stick it in a toaster oven. Can you review for us?!
Oh no I just realized she probably had this fancy toaster before those returned. Can you imagine waiting to be able to appreciate toast again with a $300 toaster hanging around? I'd have so many feelings about it lol
It would have been cool to see a comparison between this oven and a regular toaster oven. Who knows, the toaster oven might be as good and a lot less expensive.
Only problem is her Breville toaster oven cost over $300 too. Manufacturers have added too many features and increasing size of toaster ovens making them countertop convection ovens driving up their cost. The don't toast slice bread any better than my $30 two slice toaster from Cuisinart .
@@BLY99 I was going to say this and that some toss a few ice cubes into the oven too. Bread pans with lids (or dutch ovens) are supposed to yield crispy, crunchy crusts too. I want to try my dutch oven to see how it turns out.
I always use the air fryer hack for pastry. Just put the croissant under running water and get it all damp, then put it in the air fryer for about five minutes. It comes out tasting fresh even when it's many days old
Loved watching this video! I wasn’t super impressed with the toaster… I was more excited and happy at how much Emmy is enjoying eating and tasting wonderful foods again. We could definitely tell she missed tasting the deliciousness of food. Smiling with you, Emmy! ❤️🤗😀
A little tip for the paddle holes. Time your machine and figure out when the last "kneading" is done before the rising and baking, then the next loaf, set your timer for that full time (mine is 1 hour & 35 minutes), and you can take out the paddles before the bread rises and bakes. It'll still have little tiny holes from the place where you put the paddles, but it won't have the massive paddle spot that always ruins the cut.
@@Dashitishere22 I refuse to use a bread machine just for that reason. Bit of a waste. I have this cool machine that will knead the dough and has a ferment cycle so it can rise at optimal temperature. It's the MVP. BTW the kneading machines also do very well with stiffer dough because they are meant for doing pasta and dumpling dough as well as bread dough.
I've switched to Irish butter (Kerrygold) for all of my toasting and bread needs. I don't waste it for most baking or cooking, but where you really want to taste the butter there's nothing better.
So its a $300 toaster oven that does the same as the $25 black and decker toaster oven that i got at a yard sale for $2. Plus, my $2 oven toasts both sides. *btw, if you want to steam your toast, put a ramekin of water in the oven while its toasting.
ill save you -15 minutes- (20 no sponsor), NO. its an expensive waste of money and an oven, with a tray of water placed in it, does the same thing, BUT BETTER, and you already have an oven.
@@FuriosasWarRig how bout you? the world doesn't want your lack of intelligence. us sane human beings prefer to stay here, so maybe follow your own advice kiddo?
My old early 80s Hamilton Beach toaster oven is still working and almost as beautiful as the day we got it...and yes I have a small pan I put water in if I want to steam food OR clean it
I agree with next day pizza tasting good, and I've always liked having leftover take out food for breakfast the next day. The toaster looks interesting, but in my opinion it's not $300 worth of interest 😄
I don’t have this fancy model, but I have a toaster oven that I love dearly. It heats up and cools down quickly, so less time waiting for it to preheat and less hot in the summer time. If you keep this fancy gadget around, would you consider a “which makes it better” type test? Frozen pizza, chocolate chip cookies, baked chicken wings, and baked potatoes are a my convection toaster oven favorites 😊
Now, I want to bake a loaf of bread. I'm glad you finally got your sense of smell and taste back ❣️ I can imagine how difficult it was to have a cooking and tasting channel with your senses nonexistent or dulled.
Nope. Get a larger size flip up air fryer. They have toast functions that work well but do many other things also. We hardly ever use our regular oven anymore and never use our old toaster.
It’s only under toasted because of the steam. I use it without steam all the time now. Both sides gets evenly toasted. Your bread will probably never dry out enough to really the steam anyway. Just turn the knob to the toast icon and just start out at 1.5 and work your way up to your desired browning. I find 3 is too much (without water steaming).
Even when I was little, I'd always make a tiny cup out of foil sheets and added water to it when I would reheat pizza, because I always thought the loss of moisture was what made it worst than a fresh pizza. Glad I'm not crazy!!!
I bought some thin crust margarita pizzas, frozen ones. The crust came out nice and crisp, and the chopped tomato salsa on top was moist enough to be fresh tasting and juicy. I like your idea with the tin foil and water.
Emmy, I have the exact Breville smart oven that you have, and I think it makes the best, most evenly toasted bread I have ever had. You should do a comparison! 🍞
Emmy has her spunk back!! Plus, is there anything more adorable than Emmy eating a huge piece of bread?! She looked like an excited 5 year old with that giant slice.
This might be weird, but day old croissants are my guilty pleasure, especially chocolate 😂 I sometimes buy two just so I can eat one the next day. I also sometimes put them in the fridge 😂
Lol we all have our things. My friend insists the only way to eat leftover meat is standing in front of the fridge eating it cold like a scavenging animal. 😂
@@batacumba I mean a nice cold chicken and butter sandwich is really, really good (or cold ham and butter sandwich), though I'm not sure I've tried anything else meat-wise cold from the fridge
My wife swears by toaster ovens but I have a Sunbeam toaster that toasts perfectly every time. I never have to worry about one side being toasted more than the other. ❤. Luv your videos Emmy. You are so stinking cute. Lol
I'm convinced that you young people like getting ripped off. smh I bought a stainless steel, Wolfgang Puck, convection toaster oven for $99.99. it's a little larger than that toaster. 😜🤪😧😜🤪
Emmy.. can you do a tour of your storage? I wonder how you store all your gadgets!!!! you have a lot of gadgets for the videos... i wonder if you have a warehouse or something hahahaha
Hi! I need some help here. I've gotten a brand new balmuda but when I turned on the bread functions (the ones on the left side of the left dial) without putting any water, nothing happens and it doesn't light up nor heat up. Is it normal?
Hm, so it's not like Panasonic's steam oven. I assumed it used that superheated steam technology since that's popular in Japan, but this is a much simpler appliance.
How do you replicate this at home with a regular or toaster oven? You do it with a spray bottle of water. You lightly spray the bread, toast or croissant, then place it in the toaster oven. Along the way, open the oven and respray the bread with water mist during the cooking once or twice to keep the moisture going. It should steam nearly as effective as this steam toaster without the $300 price tag.
Given that a good, high-quality toaster oven is about $180, I'm not hating the cost too much here, if it is that much better. I'd wonder about the warranty and longevity, though.
When I'm' feeling extra perky (I'm getting old) and make baguette I put a baking dish in the bottom of the oven and pour a cup of hot water in when I put the bread in. Another cup half way through. Works a treat. Crusty baguette. Almost as good as France.
Another awesome review! I am looking forward to the Mitsubishi toaster oven review. I love how you pronounce French words perfectly, it shows you care and I am grateful. Thank You, Emmy!
I’ve had my Balmuda for about 2 years and I LOVE IT. Best Christmas gift ever! It may take a little longer to toast bread and pastries but it’s worth the wait. I’ve yet to be disappointed by this toaster.
does the ticking if you have it set for three minutes the whole time? I am a guy with a good to my parents home to visit I take the battery out of the clock so I don't hear the ticking
I find this so interesting as toaster ovens are not at all common here in the UK. In fact I don't know a single person that owns one, and I've never seen them in shops. We just have standard toasters here with the little push down levers. Why are they so commonplace over in the US?
In terms of reheating croissants, would it work to toast them in a regular oven? You could get the moisture in the oven by doing one of at least three things: preheat a small pan in the oven and when you put the croissant in add a cup of warm water in the preheated pan, or just toss a few ice cubes into the oven right before you put the croissant in, or maybe spray some water into the oven using a water bottle. Do you think any of those would work?
They would work but there's lots of variables to cross off there. Probably even the changing weather would be able to mess you up with such amounts of water and an unsealed oven. This thing you put a cuplet of water and set the timer and setting to what the book says, comes out perfect. Toasting seems to be trickier than baking somehow.
The haunted noises from adding cold water to hot metal are everything... but I do wonder how long that will last before the repeated heating and rapid cooling stress becomes an issue if you are regularly refilling it when it's hot.
@@shannonrickard8605 Well, you would hope not, but for 300 bucks, it seems like a rather poorly thought-out point of failure. And if you want to use it for multiple items, especially with a larger family, then it won't necessarily be that rare.
To reheat pizza we put it in a cold skillet, scatter a few drops of water around, cover with lid and turn burner/element to medium low until crispy and heated through. Works for naan, too.
Three hundred for a toaster? I will stick to my Breville Smart oven and an iron skillet for toasting and reheating pizza. I haven't tried heating croissants in it but I suspect it would do okay in the Breville. It looks nice but not for the price and the counter space.
So question: Could you get the same outcome by adding a pan with water in it to your toaster oven while toasting bread? We add a little container of water to the microwave too when we are reheating anything with bread. It keeps it from getting tough.
Nope. Will keep my 1982 Hamilton Beach toaster oven over this any day. And MY toaster has brown orange and yellow adjustable lines around the knobs that's so ....beautiful. LoL. Wow. I guess if you don't have a good Hamilton Beach late 70s or early 80s toaster oven this thing will do. 😜. Btw...I can steam in mine too... Your homemade bread looks wonderful!
I am so very happy to hear your senses have returned to you. Wait. That came out wrong. I am so glad you’re well & sense of taste & smell have returned. The bread you baked looks amazing.
300 dollar poster ain't worth it Emmy. Really, it's the same concept as using beer flavored breath mints. A 300 dollar poster just dormant make any sense. But hell, if it brings people peace of mind, hell toast it for 300 dollars. You know how many lobster tails I can buy for 300 hundred dollars???? Shit.
Emmy, I use my toaster oven ($39,with convection setting) and put a small amount of water in a custard cup next to the bread. It works. For $300, I would like better, even toasting. Not impressed.
#2. We like cold pizza, but if we want to warm it, I do 20 seconds in the microwave and then transfer to the toaster oven. Perfect. #3. Croissant can be done exactly like #1, although I never had ones quite as big. In all, waste of money - huge difference between this and inexpensive toaster oven does not seem worth it. Also, my casserole dishes would probably be too large.
So... did the people who named this not speak English or did they just think it was funny if it was literally named Balmuda? Like, Garfield the Cat, Balmuda the Toaster. Hilarious
Never ever going to buy a $300 toaster; like ever. but I still enjoyed and appreciated this review. These days reviewers be like “this is not a sponsored video. I got this for free from the manufacturer but these opinions are not biased and are all my own.” Yeah whatever, shill. So I def appreciate when people share their opinions about products they themselves paid for with their own cash money. Yo, but seriously you can only toast one slice at a time?! You have so much bread in your house to only be able to toast one slice at a time oye!
Never thought I'd watch someone eat toast for 20 minutes, but Emmy always finds a way to make "dull" things fun
And tasty! I seriously crave for bread after this

Same difference, just put a little water in the oven.

I’d get one of those little 3m hooks and attach it to the side so it just hangs there… if I was in the market for this lmao
You can do the same with the breville behind you. If your proofing or baking bread just add water to the crumb tray
That’s what I was thinking too, it’s such a small amount of water, the crumb tray could easily accommodate it!
You can use a spray bottle to spray some water in any oven, that is how bakers do it.

I took this idea and put just a little bit of water in the bottom of my air fryer (under the tray) and it makes great toast.
Hoooooray for recovering your taste and smell! Not the same without your amazing ability to detect flavors and aromas for us, your audience!
That’s what I don’t like about those type of toasters, they only toast one side.
After that you can flip it and cook it Agian time consuming right?

Nope. Will keep my 1982 Hamilton Beach toaster oven over this any day. And MY toaster has brown orange and yellow adjustable lines around the knobs that's so ....beautiful. LoL. Wow. I guess if you don't have a good Hamilton Beach late 70s or early 80s toaster oven this thing will do. 😜. Btw...I can steam in mine too...
Your homemade bread looks wonderful!
if you want to recreate a steam effect in a normal oven use a small ovenproof dish and put water in it. my nan has done this my whole life.
In a different dish than you’re baking in?
I find a damp paper towel in the micowave makes reheated items tender. If you don't want the crisp, just a softened/refreshed pastry, it works. :)
I'm so happy you have your own lil mug now!!
Now I want to bake a lil loaf of bread!
I want it just because it’s haunted. 😂
“Now, I want to bake a loaf of bread.” :P
9:43 THAT CRUNCH 😮💨😩
I love mine. I’ve had it for about 2 years. It still looks brand new, and works super well. It’s a goat for pizza leftovers !!
It better never go bad for that price
I am so very happy to hear your senses have returned to you. Wait. That came out wrong. I am so glad you’re well & sense of taste & smell have returned. The bread you baked looks amazing.
300 dollar poster ain't worth it Emmy. Really, it's the same concept as using beer flavored breath mints. A 300 dollar poster just dormant make any sense. But hell, if it brings people peace of mind, hell toast it for 300 dollars. You know how many lobster tails I can buy for 300 hundred dollars???? Shit.
Emmy, I use my toaster oven ($39,with convection setting) and put a small amount of water in a custard cup next to the bread. It works. For $300, I would like better, even toasting. Not impressed.
#2. We like cold pizza, but if we want to warm it, I do 20 seconds in the microwave and then transfer to the toaster oven. Perfect. #3. Croissant can be done exactly like #1, although I never had ones quite as big. In all, waste of money - huge difference between this and inexpensive toaster oven does not seem worth it. Also, my casserole dishes would probably be too large.
So... did the people who named this not speak English or did they just think it was funny if it was literally named Balmuda? Like, Garfield the Cat, Balmuda the Toaster. Hilarious
Never ever going to buy a $300 toaster; like ever. but I still enjoyed and appreciated this review. These days reviewers be like “this is not a sponsored video. I got this for free from the manufacturer but these opinions are not biased and are all my own.” Yeah whatever, shill. So I def appreciate when people share their opinions about products they themselves paid for with their own cash money.
Yo, but seriously you can only toast one slice at a time?! You have so much bread in your house to only be able to toast one slice at a time oye!
