about brided loaf, it's a traditional jewish bread used to be eatin in shabat and hoidays (i'm from israel, my family is jewish, but i'm an atheist). normally in kindergartens and daycares when it's friday, there is a "Kabbalat Shabbat" kind of a mini kidush when a chosen girl (Sabat's mom) light candles along with the teacher and a chosen boy (shabat's dad) is blessing on grape juice ("wine", still, children) and a brided loaf. earlier the pre school teacher makes a dough and the kids makes small loafs (so bad that a dog won't eat them, i still remember the last time, m teacher forgot to put yeast in the dough so she putted it less time in the oven, i went fishing that day and used it, even the fish didn't wanted it, and it was 15 years ago!! i'm 20 now!!).... sorry for digging...

He had 6 strings, but did it like we do with 8 strings. And he didn't do it very exact XD But ok. (A baker learns it in Switzerland with 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 8 strings - in the endtest you have to do 2string "Zopf" and 5,6 or 8 string. I did the 5 string on my test) Then the Prezels: My boss would have killed me for such a prezel. The ends have to be much longer and the mid part shouldn't be so thick. It should be thicker than the rest, yes, but not that much. P.s: You usually eat "Zopf" on Sundays with your family. You cut it in pieces and eat it with Butter and Jam.

He used the "wrong" dough for various breads, which is fine since the video was about hand technique more than the actual bread (altho it can be very misleading with some things like the fougasse). The reason I think it was frozen is the slight shine in the baguette crumb. That's typically what happens when a baker has either frozen a batch, or had bad luck with hygrometry in his workshop. And there's a slight discoloration on the inside of the crust that points towards that as well. And it does tend to play badly with the textures pre- and post-baking. That may be why he slightly overcooked it, to regain that crunch, otherwise it would have been springy
