    Hi Christine! After intensely watching this about 20 times, I have finally found the guts to make this bread. I left it for 24hrs to rise, put it in the oven and bam! I just made my very first absolutely perfect loaf of bread in the oven! The look of it and the taste? Perfection! Thank you so much for your channel.. I’m going through them one by one, and I have learnt a lot so far... keep the videos coming! ❤️❤️❤️

      Bread has GOT to cool. Otherwise the inside feels raw and doughy and just isn't bread-like and delicious. It's still cooking when its hot. I know it's hard to wait, but you knead (ha) to if you want it to be GOOD.

    Oh...My...Goodness! As a lifelong bread baker, (my grandma taught me when I was 5) I have always done the process of mix, knead, rest, knead, shape then bake. We're talking over an hour of work throughout the day. This was awesome, turned out perfectly. Would be great with soup or stew. On top I would offer is putting a piece of parchment in the bottom of the pan before the cornmeal. Alleviates any chance of sticking.

    One thing to mention - fresh ground whole wheat flour should be kept in refrigerator or freezer as it contains oil that will go rancid and destroy the B vitamins in it. Most store-bought whole wheat is already rancid. Good health food stores will have it in the refrigerator.

  • @superlimie
    @superlimie 4 роки тому +17

    For those making whole wheat without the gluten. My loaf turned out fine using just 1 t tbsp sugar to kinda agitate the yeast. Also you will need quite a bit more water than both recipes call for. I just slowly added more and more until i got the consistency christine showed. White and whole wheat turned out great!

I couldn't wait any longer and started a little after the 8 hour mark of letting the dough rest lol. My very first loaf of bread i baked came out of the oven about 30 minutes ago and it's already half gone! My family couldn't wait to eat it and they absolutely love it! Nothing like fresh, warm bread with some butter on it. Thank you so much, Mrs. Christine! God bless you and your family. :)

      MomAndKie Hello MomAndKie, I live in the United Kingdom so I’m not sure about the Italian bread you maybe use. But this bread is soft inside with a crisp and crunchy crust. It is utterly delicious, with an integrity that means you can pile on sauce based foods like baked beans without the bread becoming soggy. It’s the bread our Grandparents used to make. No additives just pure ingredients. Well worth trying. I love the no knead method too it couldn’t be simpler. I tend to make up the mixture in the afternoon then I pop it into the refrigerator to prove over night, baking it the next morning. It’s a winner, give it a go.
      Best regards Karen.

      @nicole1184 4 роки тому +4

      Sandy Amaral No, I didn’t....i would have if I had some at the time. I will try corn meal next time though. I did do a little flour and that just burned....so don’t try that. Just go for it. The worst thing that can happen is that you have to throw it away. I experimented with different pans. I used a Pampered Chef loaf pan with a cast iron skillet as a lid.....but I love how she made them with two loaf pans in a different video. One as the lid.
      One of the times, I used a cast iron Dutch oven we use for camping...that worked great. It doesn’t really expand to fill out the pan....But the lid is essential. My husband is wanting to make this when we go camping. At our camping family reunions everyone tries to make something awesome to share for dinners...my husband wants to maybe make this there.
      Jumping in and trying something like this is completely unusual for me ..... but here I am recommending you do the same. Give it a try and let me know how it goes for you.

    • @nicole1184
      @nicole1184 4 роки тому +4

      Mackenzie Fron That depends on so much.....shape of the pan and how thick obviously. If I let it cool, I could give you a better estimation. However, we all start picking at the bread while it is still warm and hack off a piece. We usually use it as a snack and for soups or chili. My daughter says it has a saltine cracker taste to her. My kids wouldn’t eat it as sandwich bread. They like their soft white sandwich bread. I can mix a batch right now and give you more details tomorrow. I will be cooking it in a 10 inch cast iron Dutch oven. Unless I get to the dollar tree to buy two loafs pans today. I’ll be back Mackenzie!

    • @nicole1184
      @nicole1184 4 роки тому +7

      Mackenzie Fron Sorry for the delay....I did make the bread yesterday and I DID let it cool before cutting into it....that was a first. My daughter came down and wanted to eat it immediately until I told her my experiment for you. I made the bread in a 10 inch cast iron Dutch oven. I poked the bread down to make it fill the entire bottom of the pan. I would say you can get 8 slices of bread but they are 10 inches long. To make it easier to cut, I sliced the loaf in half. The loaf is round so the pieces on the edges of the loaf are smaller. I would say about 7 sandwiches.
      I asked my daughter about eating the bread as a sandwich...she says...”since it is more of an artisan bread, the crust is crunchier and I don’t like that in a sandwich.” Would you eat it as a sandwich, “Probably not”
      The bread is still amazing. My family prefers to eat it as slices cut off vs sandwich bread.
      This completely my opinion...give it a try MacKenzie....let me know how it worked for you.

    Thank you so much for this recipe! ❤️ Not only is it a fantastic recipe that yields delicious and crusty bread, but you’ve given us a simple solution for lack of a dutch oven. I’ve recently moved and many items are still in storage, my dutch oven included.

    Just started watching you a couple days ago when my friend shared the extreme grocery challenge video with me. Since then I have been binging your videos nonstop. I have been wanting to meal plan but it seemed so hard and time consuming. You've made it not so intimidating. I've learned so much for your channel already and can't wait to get started using everything I've learned to help make my family healthier. Not only that, I am a single mom of 3 kids on an extremely small income and I think I've also learned a lot on how to save money buying groceries. I really think once I start meal planning and following what you do, my grocery money will stretch further. I can't wait to try all your recipes I saved especially this bread! I have always wanted to make homemade bread but carpal tunnel prevents it. This should be easy for me! Thanks so much for sharing everything! You have a beautiful family and I love your daughter! She's so cute, beautiful and spunky. Great personality.

      HPLovinMama6 Lorelai Cheyenne great post good luck to you & your family! The cheapest bread I can find around here, on sale, is about98 cents. This kind of bread when I make it comes out to about half that. From one bag of flour you can make several loaves! I think it is actually 10 but I always use the flour for other things, lol, so not sure, i need to work on my math. What I really like is I can’t even say half of the ingredients in some store bought breads, never heard of them before! I love the simple ingredients in this kind of bread. Some folks use an end of a wooden spoon to stir & mix it, say it is easier & works like a bread hook. Best of luck & have fun with it! Throw some brown sugar mixed with cinnamon and raisins before baking in it for a treat for the kids! 💕

    Just made this today and it was such a hit! It is hot where I live so after 8 hours on the countertop, my dough was threatening to rise out of the bowl. I ended up baking it after the 8 hour rise instead of leaving it overnight. Very reminiscent of an artisan bread I used to buy at a local supermarket that no longer carries it. Now I can make it myself! Will be so delicious baked with garlic and rosemary. Thanks for the recipe!

One and a half cups of white flour, 3/4 teaspoon of salt, half a cup of shortening usually use Crisco, 4 tablespoons of icewater or a little bit more if it’s not wet enough, sift the flour and salt into a bowl, cut in the shortening with a pastry cutter until it is about the size of large peas add the ice water and stir with a fork until dill clings to the side of the bowl you always usually need more water until you get the right consistency not too wet though, divide the dough into two portions and Shape into a, ball roll pastry on to lightly flowered surface - happy baking

    I have made 3 loaves of this bread so far and its the easiest bread ever. Thank you for sharing!!! I find that the dough tends to do better with a little too much water rather than too little. Just insure its still a dough, not a liquid, not a batter. This bread is hard to over proof so a longer rest is better than too short. Also bread can since fear, be confident, work with intention, and work fast. A bench scrapper works wonders with getting it under control. I use a cast iron dutch oven to cook this in and it turns out lovely. Thank you again for sharing the recipe, my family now asks me to make this regularly.

    Milwaukee, WI here, day two of social distancing. I decided “what the heck, I’ll make bread!” I’ve never made it before, in part because I’ve had no reason and in part because it seems so scary! Well, your video made it seem so easy so I gave it a try - and it totally worked! I made the white bread and it’s delicious! I used instant yeast so I only let it rise for eight hours - one is the reasons I loved your video is because I was able to compare my bread to yours, which is what helped me decide to bake it after only eight hours rather than the 24. Thank you so much for your tutorial - it was so helpful and I’m jazzed to be adding bread to my (small) repertoire!
