Hey Mathew I was wondering for your new updated recipe you didn't specify how much baking powder to use.

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

I don’t add any baking powder anymore. It comes out better without it

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

It is what my grandmother always does. However I have newer recipes not using the baking powder

[@faridaahmad5061]

Hello Matthew, I tried your plait bread and it was amazing! I used evaporated milk instead of water and the taste was delicious. Thanks

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Yes the evaporated milk makes it super rich. 😋😋

[@lilmscutie4life]

Matthew as always thanks for such an amazing recipe. My bread came out wonderful.

[@thechariotcard]

How did that 4th log come from? Did it ha w an original functional purpose? Appears to cause the bread to fall apart.

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

The bread fell apart a bit because I didn't allow it to rise enough the second rise. I have practiced a lot more since this video and that is what I have come to find out

[@salbee861]

The best bread recipe I have tried so far. You are doing an excellent job Mathew. 👍

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Happy to hear that! Thanks for trying it out.

[@shaheedahamilton9643]

Matthew, you intone so very well that it is a pleasure listening to you. Your descriptions and explanations are easy to understand and you really seem to know what you are doing! Would you please do a pepperpot recipe if you haven't done so already? You also do not use an excessive amount of herbs and spices, which I like. Keep up the great work!

Any idea how many loafs of bread are recommended to bake at once? I want to make this to go with my dad’s pepperpot…but we need more than one loaf. I dnt want to overfill the oven and mess up temp time

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

You can make like 3-4 loaves in the oven. It won’t mess up the cooking you’ll prob just have to switch it around a bit to get it brown

[@bibiaali9837]

Why baking powder too ,when you’re using yeast

[@cherylpanday4790]

U can really cook man,everything look delicious

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

No prob!

[@anjaliadam2730]

Hi Mathew, love your cooking techniques. I just tried your recipe today for plait bread and the only thing I didn't have was crisco, so I used 2 tablespoons of "Kelapo Ghee". It came out so soft and the texture was just perfect! This recipe is definitely a keeper. Thank you so much! P.S. If you have a recipe for tennis rolls, I'd love to try that. 😊

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Anjali Adam Hi there! I am glad the ghee worked out nice variation. I am actually working on a tennis roll recipe right now I will post it in the future.

[@anjaliadam2730]

Hi again Chef Mathew! I wanted to give an update to my first comment. I only had rapid rise yeast, so I mixed all the other ingredients, then added half a pack of the DRY rapid rise yeast (1 teaspoon) to the mix and this time I used 1 tablespoon of ghee instead of 2, and warm water to form dough. Then after kneeding just the same as before, I made my plait and let it sit for about an hour and baked for the same 25 mins at 350*. It came out perfect and no different than the first way. I read that you do not have to proof rapid rise yeast (only active dry) nor let rise two times which saved a little time for if you're in a rush. Thank you again!

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Anjali Adam I am glad it came out well for you. Thank you for watching!

[@georgetownguyana573]

Great i will try this tomorrow thank u soo much Matthew

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Mon Chi I used the dry measuring cups for the dry ingredients.

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

You can mix and double everything in the same bowl. And once it's done rising, you can split the dough into 2 loaves.

Does the added raising agent, baking powder, make the bread softer?

To be honest I stopped putting it in my bread. If you look at my more recent bread videos. Actually better to just use yeast

[@sheilamatthias7491]

Why are you using baking powder

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

I have updated my recipe. I no longer use baking powder. Some people add because it adds a different texture to the bread too.

For those, like me, who didn’t know what plait bread is, it just means braided. Challah is the traditional example. I though it had something to do with the dough, but alas, it’s just braid. Nearly any dough can be plaited, or braided. Wish our host would provide a little better culinary definition or history than just the internet definition of plait bread for those of us ignoramuses in his audience.

[@amandalee4698]

It is definitely like challah bread! In the Guyanese community its called “plait bread” or “Guyana bread”.
