My gran used a little bacon grease in her walnut and sprouted wheat bread. It lasted well, but it was usually eaten before it could spoil.

[@Bakewithjack]

That sounds like a deicious idea! Not surprised it got eaten up!

[@cozyvamp]

Just make sure you get the tiny bacon bits in, and it's perfect. Thank goodness my gran taught me how to make it. ;)

[@thomasrichards8055]

I find going from 60% to 70% hydration makes a big difference, that and a linen bread bag!

[@juliaaquaamateur1573]

My secret is sourdough, oil and honey :) However, as my baking skills improve (with your help), there is no need to make bread last for so long anymore :)))))

[@Bakewithjack]

Yay! ☺️

[@anon2399]

That’s so cute

I've noticed my bread seems to stay fresh for longer since I stopped bringing my dough into the warm living room to prove (21ºC) for an hour & instead, leaving it in the (17ºC) kitchen. It takes an extra 45 minutes on the first rise & roughly the same amount longer on the second, so I'm guessing the water is more thoroughly absorbed in that time. Tonight's 80/20 white/wholemeal has been my best effort yet & all thanks to your tips matey.

I had a loaf of bread (store bought Nature Own Hand Crafted Thick slice) in my van in Florida in July for over a week. Sure the van got up to 120F inside the middle of the day. I was surprised it was still soft, did not have any mold or smell. Had a few sandwiches and it was fine.

[@annlicano3416]

Extra time is not always applicable when you live at high altitude with humidity. My doughs raise twice as fast in the summer. They also bake faster too. It's just going to take time to adjust as you have pointed out many times. Good tips...thx from El Paso, Texas

[@victorhugosanchez3782]

Hi Jack, I just started to watch your channel, I'm starting to bake, breads only, I've doing it for 2 months Love the content I have a question, I heard that if you add lemon juice to the dough [Sandwich] (2% of the water) the bread will last a lot more, would you recommend something like that? Can I do that with other types of breads? (I live in a tropical country, we have summer all year long, 20/35°C all day, every single day)

[@patrickmay5628]

do you have a room for rent? lol

[@MrTellem44]

Very informative!!! Thank you!! Have you heard of adding vinegar?

[@flyboy13131]

Jack , love all the tips done with such sincere passion . I’m an American and wonder about that accent . Is it a London accent ? If so , or if not , which area ? Can tell it’s English, but curious of the location exactly !

[@Bakewithjack]

South 👍🏻 I think 🤔

[@mgomez8864]

Hi Jack enjoy your videos and tips I make bread at home with sourdough and I takes around 24 hours from making it to bake it. my bread last me for 2 -3 weeks soft and mould free. Love it and is so easy !! I don’t get it why more people don’t make their own bread!!

[@Bakewithjack]

ME TOO!

[@Bakewithjack]

If only they did they’d realize what a joy it really is ☺️

[@C00ltronix]

The trick to make it last longer is to make it less yummy. Yummy bread lasts maximum two days in my place.

[@fabriciopereiravaesken3448]

Hola Jack! I've been subscribed to you since Sunday and I've already watched all your tips on YT! Could you talk about how to change a recipe that contains commercial yeast to sourdough, and specifically sweet bread doughs. I made sourdough Cinnamon rolls yesterday and they didn't turn out sweet at all.

[@InefableTheo]

From what I understand his whole approach is to teach you the science so that you dont need to follow any recipe at all.

[@mandiigraham1596]

Adding the fat seems logical now that you mention it.I’m still trying to perfect my fruit loaf.

[@volsius7244]

it's an old video, but what energy! nice video c:

[@alimahdi6379]

Can I use oregano instead of thyme? 🥁🥁☀️

[@Bakewithjack]

Ali Mahdi 😆😄😄🤣😂😅! Yes but it takes longer 😜

[@alimahdi6379]

Bake with Jack 💐 thanks for the great tips.

[@nyamete7]

Are you kidding? You must be kidding but if you're not kidding then I would like to clarify to you that he didn't meant "Thyme", he meant "Time".

[@equalityrightsgroupggr5766]

Thanks Jack. I enjoy your videos and tips, Mr Smiley!

[@Bakewithjack]

Thank you ☺️

[@robertnordeen4631]

Thats about 5% per 500g. So should I go 5% on my 850g recipe? That would be 42.5g? seems like alot. Thanks Jack. you got the magic voice to get the info across. You are so captivating. Cant blink or I'd miss it. :)

[@Bakewithjack]

Yep. It’s the same amount ☺️👌🏻

[@suzyhazelwood9942]

I agree with the butter or oil, it definitely makes the bread softer and lasts a lot longer. I like to keep my bread in a polythene bag in the fridge, which horrifies some people! But it stays nice and fresh and also soft that way. I see so many friends and relatives who keep their bread in paper bags and useless bread bins... and wonder why their bread goes hard as a brick and horribly dry in no time at all. Bread bins should be banned!! :oD

[@Bakewithjack]

In the fridge!? 😱

[@ngchew3336]

Totally agree with you. I live in a country where the temperature is constantly at 30 plus C. It keeps it fresher longer.

[@MichaelFenley]

Dryness was bit of a problem. Thank you.

[@WitecyBier]

Thaks Jack, u r awesome.

[@MartinMicha-t9l]

Dats was great❤

[@clarkkent7973]

Adding some baker's milk powder to the bread will also make it last longer.

[@willtube61]

Add 3 tbsp diastatic malt to your recipe. Huge difference in my breads. Softer longer.

[@brightsarfo8165]

What’s diastatic malt please I want to know

[@ditto303]

Thank you

[@brightsarfo8165]

Please I’m a baker and normally my bread doesn’t last long it’s last long at least 3days and I need more ideas

[@smsbeakery4494]

How many ml or kg will I add on 50kg bag of flour

[@jamesp4316]

Love all your videos. Your tattoos look extraordinary, though viewed fleetingly. Any story about them?

[@chopsddy3]

Way number three. Hide it.

[@carpenterfamily6198]

Jack said the “ T “ word ! 😊

[@coffeeNcream44]

You are such a cutie!!! Love your channel❤❤

[@Bakewithjack]

Thank you!☺️ ☺️☺️☺️

[@kyuubinokuro1347]

So just using more butter will make bread more soft for a longer time?

[@katatonic726]

Hi jack!!! ☺ iiim new here & i just noticed a bit of change between your 2016 & '17 videos- 1st you're personality EXPLODES, & 2nd you're accent got... more uhhh, thicc 😂 I LOVE IT cuz im an animated person too, but i gotta ask- were you more camera shy before? trying to be more professional before? OR are you just DRUNK now 🙃 my accent gets thicker when i drink too, don't mind my stupid quips... 🤦🏻‍♀️like how i just said "too", as if to say you're all scotched up 😃 not that I'd mind 💚❤💚❤ happy new year jackie!

[@sarthakmohapatra3738]

add sourdough starter in the dough

[@Bakewithjack]

Goon one! 👌🏻

[@itsmeraz3008]

So interesting, how much would you add, say when using 500g flour?

[@sarthakmohapatra3738]

Raziya Dharma 150 gms of starter

[@itsmeraz3008]

SARTHAK MOHAPATRA thank you! Will give it a try :-)

[@sarthakmohapatra3738]

Raziya Dharma You're welcome

[@RevuitNet]

This is great but I bet warburtons or Hovis have a helpful preservative they add…. That’s what I hoped I’d find today.

[@VASI_LIKI]

Ur adorable 👌❤👌

[@Bakewithjack]

Thank you ☺️

[@Emerald-Moon]

You're hilarious! 😆

[@Bakewithjack]

Thank you 🤗🤗🤗

[@gab.lab.martins]

Water roux. Fuckin’ water roux. Makes it last twice as long as usual.
