    This is the first time I didn't feel like the Level 3 chef didn't go overboard with their ingredients. Like every ingredient was meticulously placed at each interval and had value in the recipe. Instead of just adding flashy and fancy ingredients for the hell of it. You sir are a master of baking and have earned my respect.

    If quarantine baking has taught me anything, it’s that Gabrielle’s loaf fell because there’s no gluten to trap that co2 and get rise. I’m sure it was delicious, but the crumb immediately gives it away as gluten free. I’m disappointed our food scientist did not mention that, it’s kind of important.

    • @JaesarDunaGella

      I was diagnosed with celiac a couple months before Covid locked my state down. I’ve baked and cooked tons of things gluten free (cupcakes, double chocolate muffins, banana muffins, blondies, brownies, pizza dough, nuggets, pancakes, and of course, banana bread amongst other things), and all came out perfect! My bread didn’t cave in either! I’ve used Cup 4 Cup, Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1, King Arthur, and Krusteaz! All of them worked just fine and the King Arthur didn’t even have xantham gum like the others (so I have no idea how it worked- but it did thankfully!). Good gluten free baking is 100 percent possible 😁

      Actually in the Philippines we use plantains more in banana breads because usually they ferment fast and the usual banana is more expensive than a plantain. It's actually more sweet. We use it in bananaque and turon and it hits close to home that he used plantains. We use it in banana breads too and u'll see it in bakeries here. It is more dry than the usual banana bread. But the flavor is more distinct and it kinda makes you nostalgic.

      By the botanical definition, a berry is a fruit that develops from a specific part of a single flower, is fleshy throughout, and does not have a line of weakness it splits along to release the seeds when ripe.
      So to be strictly accurate about it, a berry is a type of fruit, that includes things like pumpkins and peppers that few people think of as berries - yes, a pumpkin is, technically, a berry. Strawberries, blackberries, and raspberries are not, they are aggregate fruit.

    Thank goodness for this video! Hubby accidentally bought me plantains when I asked for bananas and I'm glad to know that I can make quick bread with plantains.

      Seems Jon pulls off a solid basic recipe. Level 2's tends to go "beyond" and it doesnt always pay off. Sometimes the basics are just better.
      I will admit I used to really dislike Jon but man has he grown on me. I smiled when I saw him.
