How to Make 3 Artisanal Breads from 13 Ingredients | Handcrafted | Bon Appétit

[@GeoffreyAlan]

This is so relaxing to watch. And the narration is so calming. Ready for a nap at work now.

[@TheTAKNO]

Why are so feminine? Such a soy boy.

[@liimakino]

I legit fell asleep... Then went back to watch again haha

[@CANControlGRAFFITI]

liiparks 6 mins in and I was out

[@ririthequeen2131]

Geoffrey why did you take the kids

[@frazom]

@@TheTAKNO what are you, a five years old?

[@someguywhocanfly]

Love this guy's presentation style, straight to the point and very calming voice. No wasted time.

[@hugoa.c.1566]

someguywhocanfly you would love the handmade soba noodles video then (if you haven’t seen it yet, I highly recommend)

[@Narra0002]

Hugo A.C. Yeah that video, this one, and handmade pasta are my faves

[@toughluck2012]

BA! Where's the money shot of the crumb? All that work and we don't get to see a closeup of the crumb?

[@stacey738]

THIS! I wanted to see what the porridge bread looked like inside!

[@mancerayder1012]

You can sort of see it. It's not that good.

[@DuxLu]

It's near the end of the video, just keep watching.

[@drewe9514]

good call

[@shiraleeana]

Definitely needed a closeup. Maybe ripping into the bread too. Those holes!

[@katiekawaii]

This is the kind of thing that makes you nod your head sagely and say "that's good, honest work."

[@bbstucki]

I have a couple of his books, I need to recommit to learning his art. Thank you BA so much for inviting a master class baker to show us how to reach new heights.

[@pio854]

ARE WE JUST GONNA IGNORE THE FACT THAT HE WAS BASICALLY EYE BALLING STUFF AND EVERYTHING STILL CAME OUT PERFECT??????

[@Cessna1541]

I'm fairly certain it's all pre-measured since bread is usually done by mass instead of volume, hence why he just dumps the whole plastic container of flour. he's still really great nonetheless

[@qtaayy]

To be fair he said he's been doing this for 20 years!

[@sampeterson6538]

With sourdough, you can potentially do it all by feel. I’ve even seen recipes for sourdough where they just put the dough together, let it rest overnight, bake it, and it still makes bread. Not to downplay any of this master bakery, just saying it’s easier than people think

[@robbonarlaw]

This guy is the god of bread, I wouldn't doubt his skills

[@myshinobi1987]

Is there an actual recipe anywhere? As in measured amounts and instructions?

[@jvallas]

When I heard “leaven,” I thought it was incorrect, because I’ve always heard “levain.” Then I heard him say “levain” at one point, so I looked it up. Same thing - one is English, one is French (if anyone but me cared).

[@kessa9755]

Thank you. I wondered the same thing as well

[@Chemeleon15]

Judy Vallas What also scared me was him saying that the French coined the term “autolyse”(English) after he had just said “leaven”(English) instead of Levain(French).

[@rodroa]

Sorry, but, what consists in that leaven thing?

[@vihanjain6975]

Rodrigo Almeida flour and water left to ferment over a few days

[@Voxphyle]

I've always considered levain essentially a stage in certain methods. Mainly because in the sponge and dough method, it's called levain-levure in French. I've always felt that the French levain refers to that sort of pre-ferment stage, whereas the English leaven just refers to any leavening agent. Because without some distinction, people who says levain are just being pretentious. Kinda like ordering with phony Italian accent at an Olive Garden.

[@JS-uf2by]

I graduated from college in December with a STEM degree and immediately applied to work at an artisanal, wood-fired bakery. There’s nothing like using your senses and intuition to make something of few ingredients into a showstopper. ♥️

[@themastermason1]

Cooking is just food engineering.

[@anamoreira6882]

I'm a political science major and I'm going to take a course on bread making so I can also apply in the future.

[@Raice]

Man I could watch this on repeat all day. Next time on BA Live: 24 hours of bread!

[@borbetomagus]

You might enjoy this video of a day in the life of a baker -- /watch?v=iUuKstAWof4

[@SteveMillerhuntingforfood]

He makes the best bread in the world. If you want it, you have to get to his store early....They sell out very quickly.

[@trexaz19]

It's crazy how little he actually works the dough

[@trexaz19]

@array s WHAT, are you trying to say you can overwork them (which is the case of most bread) or you can't overwork them (which would be a reason to work it more)

[@yepenyanneke8961]

@@trexaz19 te same with all breads, you can always overwork them( overworking means destroying the gluten). But the doughs in the video are extra vulnerable. You only have to overwork them slightly and the breads will not hold air in.

[@trexaz19]

@@yepenyanneke8961 yes I am very familiar with the concept

[@akirak1871]

That's the awesome thing about this artisan-style sourdough... It's actually a lot less work than regular yeast bread, just a lot of waiting around.

[@robinnewberry3162]

BA has the most creative and informative cooking related channel on youtube I've come across, and I am SO glad I happened upon it.

[@tulikaG22]

I was glued to my mobile screen while watching... God his techniques, his narration, the gentle subtle way in which he was working... One of the best bread making video I have ever seen. Lot to learn. Lot.

[@papasieges3997]

Is it just me, or is his technique hypnotizing. I find myself rewatching this video all the time.

[@JT-ic6rx]

There is something beautiful about watching this video, and listening to Mr. Robertson talk.

[@1d1hamby]

Very well spoken English.

[@someguywhocanfly]

The dough when he's shaping the loaves looks so satisfying to touch

[@nooperspism]

someguywhocanfly it’s one of the reasons that I like to bake bread. Fun tactile experience. Kind of like kids playing with slime or playdoh.

[@123peterjackson]

chad is my inspiration I have all his books. The porridge bread is one of my favs

[@Allieh]

I need to try the porridge bread ASAP. 😋

[@simonernst9774]

Its unbelievable how amazing those 3 main ingredients (water, flour, salt) creates something so fascinating and delicious...

[@natheniel]

Can you guys please continue this series? I really love it!

[@cececola]

Thank you for being so generous with your recipes. This makes so much sense and easier to understand than most. Loved your technique and will definitely try this out. Thank you!!!

[@DoughPlanet]

He makes the dividing and pre-shaping in particular look so effortless. It's beautiful.

[@beppeci]

the ease with which Chad works all of that dough shows the gazillion hours spent on the job... as always, amazing!

[@LiiiHemma]

The narration is really great - relaxed but it contains so many of the little nuggets developed over a long career. Great stuff

[@borsamur]

love this guy ,ive baked my first sourdough trought hes book 10-12 years ago ,and follow many others,he is still the best !!

[@nooperspism]

Someone lent me his book and I just fell in love with the science behind making a good loaf of sourdough. As a visual learner, I am pumped to see the man himself making a loaf of sourdough! Thank you, BA!!!!

[@stephaniemireault]

Thank you, thank you, thank you BA for these kinds of videos. I love them and I just love every video that you do ! Continue the great work !

[@maltezachariassen7496]

I'm SO happy to see Scandinavian style rye bread is getting more popular now. Its so delicious, especially with fish! Very well made!

And just before easter as well. Can't have a Danish easter without "rugbrød" in my family.

[@FoxyFryGames]

@@RedSntDK can't have a Danish daily life without rugbrød lmao

[@feedommodoyle]

THANK YOU - for answering lots of little detail questions and sharing your expertise - about levain, when to add salt, turning, air, flavor - all of it! This will def improve my next loaf!

[@しゅーおーくらけらん]

I wish this series could release more often, it's great to be able to see masters demonstrating their craft. It's a shame that it doesn't garner as much views as other series on BA.

[@Mashkablue1]

I really love the Hadcrafted series. In the US, unless we work in the food industry or restaurants, are very out of touch with how our food is made and the art form that it is.

[@rachiemarieeee]

Rewatching this series for like the 6th time. Please do more of these ♥️

[@bellayabes5155]

I just made a variation of the porridge bread in class! Mixed the sourdough starter with a biga preferment. Came out amazing!

[@kenromero9236]

[@KariM-mb2pr]

I could watch you all day long. Your experience is beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

[@1234macro]

These are one of the most beautiful loaves I have yet to see. It's a shame we didn't get a full crumb shot, but the glimpse we got was spectacular nonetheless.

[@gunesbatmaz8629]

Let’s get this bread taken to a whole other level

[@VV1L7]

This felt like a college course on baking bread, I absolutely love the about of detail and precision put into this video! I’m definitely going to go back and follow the recipe with hopes of baking my own sourdough from scratch! Again Great job on this video, I would love to more of this in depth hyper informed content on this channel!

[@mandboat]

Did you end up making that loaf? How did it turn out?

[@thisismytake]

I’ve been making sourdough for the last 3 months. With tartine’s book guidance ❤️

[@Fudgeey]

Finally, a how-to on breadmaking that makes sense. I've never understood why cooks painstakingly measure out how much flour to use down to the gram, and carefully hydrate the bread when needed, but... when it's time to roll the bread or cut it into portions - FLOUR FLOUR FLOUR! MUST FLOUR THE ALL THE SURFACES!! As if the flour on the surface wouldn't impact the dryness of the bread, when it absolutely does. Love the water method he's using here.

[@JJ-er1ng]

Because the other Cooks in the kitchen may not have the same eye for baking, so to ensure every loaf comes out correctly weight measurements are preferred.

[@Fudgeey]

@@JJ-er1ng Read that whole comment again, friend

[@dgraham031588]

This is my favorite BA video of all time, thank you so much for getting Chad, a master, and my first and strongest culinary inspiration to teach these beautiful techniques!

[@Yakikitsu]

wonderful Video, I had a baker once in the Hotel I worked as a Cook which he treated the dough like his own kid, it's heartwarming to see how much Love the Bakers are putting in their Breads, sometimes I think I should be a Baker too, I like this kind of Stuff

[@michaelbhs05yb]

This video is so momentous. I was recently thinking I want more videos from Chad because while the pictures in Tartine Bread are great, there's nothing like seeing shaping in action. I know I'll be referring to this video alot. Thanks, Chad and BA!

[@nooperspism]

michaelbhs05yb This completed my bread baking life too!

[@HotaraTakeo]

Don't be fooled by how easy this looks. To make your ouwn leaven and bread is lots of batches to get one right. To make a great bread from scrach is mastery.

[@laurensmith9579]

Yep. This is a master making his craft look easy. It's taken me about 20 loaves to get sourdough down but even then I've made maybe one or two that have the bounce and look of his country sourdough in this video.

[@jeffshannon5410]

That was very informative and impressive! You are a very talented baker!

[@alexandergilles8583]

I like how he’s talking you through each and every step to make these breads but in reality, if we all followed it, 99% of us would not get the bread to look and taste like his. Just goes to show what an art this is

[@sycapion8463]

okay i dont know if i'm just new to bread scoring but when he used the scissors my jaw dropped, thats so clever......... im never having issues scoring my loaves again, kitchen scissors are once again the ultimate homies

[@abbyclark2272]

This was a beautiful and unbelievable watch. Wow. Thank you

[@gravedigger1454]

Very nice bread. MY favourite would be the sprouted rye. Americans are so missing out on great bread, good to see people making that available. Greetings from Germany!

[@matthewnaik]

Love Tartine. BA's under the radar foray into ASMR videos

[@ellenmurphy2150]

How come cooking videos are so relaxing? No I am not implying that it is boring-- something nice and calming to watch.

[@randomtennisball]

So much nurturing goes into even a single loaf! Like Brad said in his video, this is why artisanal bread is comparatively pricey, but so worth that price.

[@gasiedu]

I don't get how people thumbs down a video like this, mind boggling

[@KnightSlasher]

Lets get this bread _i'm sorry_

You sir are doing the lords work!

[@sophroniel]

I always grew up with making my porridge with oat bran. It's smoother and tastier, and if you use rye and barley it would make a sweet bread... knackerbröd of any kind is great, especially once you get past steel cut or rolled plain oats.

Yes, the stuff at grocery stores is not food. It is way too processed and sterilized for the human gut. Need more people making fermented breads for flavor than all the salt and sugar.
