Eric, when you try making this bread again, be REALLY REALLY careful when pouring the water into the hot metal bowl underneath the lower rack because if you splash any water on the oven window it can/will crack! What you can do is put a kitchen towel right on the glass as soon as you open the oven door, slide your boule in, pour the water in the metal bowl, remove the towel, and close the door again.
@algismorales thanks for the heads up on that point. i have heard of that happening. thanks for watching, please consider subscribing, new vids each week. eric.
@Roxses20 having peel and stone are key, i think, you can make your own peel, we have video how-to for that. and pizza - bread stone is about $25, i think, thx, eric.
I tried this recipe, but when I took out the dough to use after 2 days of sitting in the fridge, it smelled very strongly of alcohol and tasted like beer when baked... I don't like beer :(
Sorry to sound like a lazy person but did you make a video on how you made the dough and second question can we bake without the hot water in the oven ..since it is an electric oven I want to avoid the water near it. Thanks great video ...
Contrary to popular belief, kneaded bread is not hard to make either by hand or with a kitchenaid. This "no knead" method is easy initially but i've found the dough to be messy, and frustrating to work with. I'll put my kitchenaid prepared dough and final product up against any "no knead" bread any day!
@GardenMoonQueen hi, salt will reduce yeast activity, i will try your suggestion and see if there is difference thanks for watching, eric - GardenFork
@GEOPUZZLE thx!, i am not the expert, but its fun to do, i just baked some bread this weekend, still learning. glad you like the pups too, eric - GardenFork
I mixed this dough recipe last night, instead of using a tall plastic storage container for the dough, I took the glazed clay bowl and lid from my old crock pot. The height and size of the crock bowl works better in my small refrigerator. Since I seldom use my crock pot, I have put the bowl to better use.
Now, here is a question, is it safe to use a glazed crock pot bowl, with a metal or pyrex lid, to create a dutch oven, to bake the bread?
@TheTexasbuddy i'm thinking it be good to do that, though i am not a baking safety expert, i have used a dutch oven with this bread, we have a video of that on our YouTube channel here. eric - GardenFork
@erochow Eric if the pot and glass lid from a crock pot would work as a dutch oven, it would certainly be a savings over purchasing a cast iron dutch oven. You can find nice crock pots with glass lids at Goodwill for around three to five dollars. Evidently the electrical part of the crock pots did not work, so Goodwill tossed them and were only selling the thick pots and glass lids. Some crock pots have the plastic lids,,,but it is fairly easy to find a glass lid replacement at Goodwill.
@TheTexasbuddy neat idea to go to goodwill. cast iron dutch ovens ( the kind that are not enameled and fancy ) are not expensive if you shop around, and they are great for baking and cooking on the stovetop, so that might make it worth the $ thx, eric.
Great looking loaf. I did something similar only baked the loaf in the dutch oven like a no knead loaf which worked well too, I will send you the video.
awesome video, the bread looked amazing! You know you could have used the butter that was left in the warm fridge..practically everywhere but the US eggs arent refrigerated..GASP!!
did he wash his hands after petting the dogs? some dogs roll in dead animal carcasses, they like stink, and some pets eat excrement (coprophagy). people who keep animals in the house have more deadly microbes, and some of them work in the food services. animal hair floats in the air, landing on food. put animals outside (or do not buy them, and save money), and make your own food if you can, to avoid disease and death! - james mcashan for the US Senate
@jamesmcashan1 are you going to outlaw pets if you are elected to the senate? Rule number 1: If you think a certain way is the best way to do something, that doesn't mean that anyone else agrees with you, or that you are even correct in your way of thinking.
Tried this last night and if you mentioned it in the video I apologize - started baking the loaf at 375 for about 35 minutes (I baked it on a cookie sheet with a cast iron skillet underneath with 1/2 cup water to create the steam) and then cranked the oven to 425 for 8-10 minutes and then let cool. The loaf turned out sponge-y but crispy on the outside. Thanks for the fun!
@erochow Yep, I did that first - and had no complaints. Well, my wife thought the bottom crust was too crust-y - but hey, different strokes for different folks... So I thought I would try it at the lower temp and then crank it at the end and it worked out. I'm actually going to try that technique with pizza dough. I'll let you know how it goes. Btw, a little hummus spread on the ham and egg breakfast sandwich is amazing. Grilled cheese is up next my friend - have a great day.
I made this this weekend and wow wow wow loved it so much made three loaves. So far my favorite way to eat it is with a little butter, a fried egg (over medium) and two slices of thin ham then toasted yummmmmmmmmmm
Thanks for you video, love love love your personality, so down to earth. Also the cut away showing the two dogs with the stick made me giggle. My dog loves the water to, I have to leave his leash on when he jump in the water just in case he goes too far. Always look like I'm fishing and my dog is attached as bait.lol, but anyway, thanks for the video, keep them coming.
Thanks so much for the video. I've been making Jim Lahey's version about 3 yrs now and I do have the book for this version but never tried it. I will now. What stone do you have and where did you purchase it as it's a nice square stone?? Thanks, Rob
thank u so much , i tried making the bread and turned out so good and delicious its so easy to make , i liked ur video too,, ur definitely a very good cook i must say that
This is a great video ! You make it seem so easy without coming across as stuffy (if that makes any sense). I love the comraderie between you both and the dogs are adorable ! I've been wanting a baking stone ! I cringed when you said it broke after one use. I'm going to have to research a decently priced one that is durable.. and great baking peel ! It's pretty awesome that you managed to make your own. Thanks for posting the video ! I might now be brave enough to try out the recipes !
@anothernight82 thanks for watching. i think my problem with the baking stone is i put the water dish too close to the stone and the steam rising from the dish cracked the stone.
@bajastoner i broke our baking stone, which is basically an unglazed tile, a while back, but it still works, so we use it. i burned pizza cheese on it last week, not fun... eric.
I love to see people make their own accessories I do it every chance i get.
I am a fan of Lahey and breadtopia, sam principle. I like the idea of keeping this is the fridge and have a little at a time since I am alone. Have you ever tried a La cloche instead of useing water. I made my own by buying a clay flower pot and a clay flower pot dish. BAke the bread in there Like Jim does.
I am sorry your video stopped and I never saw your bread, I'll try again. Thanks
The bread looks very good. We bought a Moulinex bread maker which does a pretty good job - however, have been making mostly brown bread and would be nice to have some white for a change. It does the whole job for you, however, so maybe less labour intensive in the long term (but prob. not such tasty bread).
Do you show those dogs - they look like pedigree. We are thinking of buyng a pedigree pointer ... already have an alsation but want a show dog for interest.
Great intro into this Artisan Bread system guys ! Very inspiring !! Does the intitial dough get fed or added to and kept going? Or is a new master batch of dough made up after the last of your contained dough is used up? Love the homemade bread peel ! I would look into making my own too...they are too expensive to buy retail. Thanks so much for sharing this with us. Shine on Eric and company
Eric, thanks for this great vid. I bake bread for my family every Sunday. No storebought bread for us! I use the King Arthur Flour website for my go to recipe book. I am going to look into this artisan bread. Love your channel!
