I couldn’t stop laughing, you have a great sense of humor!

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

:D Thanks!

I love the bread slicer! I've been making bread for 20 years and I've never seen one of those machines. Yes, my kids ate a lot of uneven sandwiches. LOL! Great video.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Thanks for your kind comment, Hope. You've never seen a bread slicer? Wow! A friend of mine purchased one about 8 years ago and loved it, and another friend of mine had had hers for years and years and years (I always admired how perfect her slices were!) Once I stomached the cost, I never turned back. I've been making bread for about 14 years, and hate hate hate shop bread now; tastes like I'm eating tissues...nothing in it lol And don't you worry, I also made many an uneven sandwich back in my bread knife days :D

[@rickyferns1942]

My family loved your video, informative and definitely entertaining👍🏽😃

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

That's great to hear, Ricky! Thanks for your kind compliments 😀

Hi, your my hero! I have a set of Cutco knives and one of them is the 10 1/2” bread knife. These knives are suppose to be some of the worlds best knives, but it wasn’t slicing my sourdough bread worth a darn! I use the cutting machine you showcased for meat and cheese but never considered it for bread until you recommended it! I took it out of it’s hiding place high in a garage cabinet and wallah, it sliced through the beautiful golden brown crust like a hot knife through butter (forgive the pun) and made PERFECT uniform slices! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your ideas with us! You just saved me from buying and trying another expensive bread knife or electric knife! Happy baking!

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Pleased to be your hero, Bob. I know what you mean about bread knives. You win some, you lose some, but the electric slicer (even one pulled out and dusted off from the garage cabinet) is an every-time winner. I love the uniform slices too - just like shop bread! You're very welcome. It's my pleasure to share these ideas. So glad to have saved you time and money. Happy baking to you too!

[@Diana-xm1dm]

OMG, you're so funny; I just loved your skit.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Hehe Thanks, Diana. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cindymaddux3507]

I never even thought about using my meat/cheese slicer to slice bread...what a great suggestion! Thanks for the video, love it.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

You're welcome! I love the idea of using the same machine for several different foods 😁

[@jdfi1403]

My machine doesn’t have serrated blades and doesn’t work with sourdough bread.

[@thefarmerswifetfw]

I’m loving that electric bread knife. Great video

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Cool! Yes, the electric knife is a lot of fun. Thanks for your kind comment. Great that there are so many options for speeding up bread slicing, hey?

You've hooked me to your channel. I'll be looking for all sorts of food related posts.

[@maycanfield9683]

I think that super thick slice size would be perfect for banana bread or pound cake!

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

You're absolutely right! Yum!

[@synthkey7201]

What is the type nr of the electric bread slicer? Where can i buy:)

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Good morning! Unfortunately I think this slicer may not be available any more, but a quick search on Google for "electric bread slicer" brings up heaps of other alternatives. Hope you find one you like!

[@lynnbehnke6910]

I'm looking for help cutting bread machine loaves with a hole in the bottom. My knife-sliced slices look beautiful until I get to the part of the loaf which is undermined by the hole. Any suggestions?

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

This electric slicer will work well. The slices with the hole will always look a little funny but the slices will be regular and of course homemade bread tastes divine. Thanks for the question :)

[@smcd1984]

Thank you very much for your great video.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

My pleasure, Ann! Thank you for your kind comment.

[@bammg1341]

Thank you very much for your video. I now know how to slice my sandwich bread. I do own an electric slicer.

Aww thanks Nick! You're welcome.

[@alinenareau9505]

Hi! Y really whant to buy the electric slicers then you use to cut the bread can y get the name of the compagny and the #of the model please thank you for your answers ❤❤❤

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Sadly I don't think the model I have is available anymore, but a quick search in Google "electric bread slicer" or "electric meat slicer" brings up several options. Definitely read the reviews before purchasing though 😉

[@alinenareau9505]

@@NotOnlyCarrots thank you very much to answer me ! ❤❤👍👍

[@craigstill]

You would cut 3 or 4 slices at each slot without taking the loaf out. Duh 4:52

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Hmmm...I never considered this, Craig! Great duhs of history haha

[@craigstill]

I had to look up how to cut bread made in a machine without demolishing the loaf.. Duh

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Thank you! 😃

[@sharon-qc3gn]

I bought one of those a year ago..trash, in the garbage it went, it’s plastic to some of the holes were fused together and the bread knife did not go through correctly.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

One of the plastic slicers? Yeah, the one I unboxed was beyond useless. The electric slicer on the other hand has lasted for years and years. Thanks for your comment!

[@darlenebattle2713]

Can you slice meat with it too?

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Absolutely. I had one guy comment about how he had a meat slicer stored in his garage which he pulled out and repurposed as a bread slicer after watching my video!

[@adamkrasneski3679]

Wish i wouldve found this vid when i first started making bread. Took a whole month b4 i learned not to cut warm bread. Side note, those look like normal amercan slices of bread w that 1st contraption. The thicker cuts are used for "texas toast"

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

I know! Once I let the bread cool before slicing it, my world changed! :D Texas toast - cool name! We call them 'Cafe slices'.

[@ss11733]

this was so fun!! I was only fairly interested in learning about bread slicing and I'm sticking around for the whole video, as a new subscriber! vegans unite! haha. also as an american I am easily amazed by accents because we don't have very good ones here 😂

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Glad you enjoyed it! Great to have you on board :) I forget sometimes that my American subscribers think I have an accent. Really though, it's you who has the accent haha

[@AyongaGlo]

oh you've cracked me up ! Thank you! (Chunky slice...'chopping down a tree")

[@miamited69]

put the knife blades in the gutting guide from the top, it will be easier to get it is the same slot on both sides and the electric knife might actually fit in.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Great suggestion, Ted. I'll give it a try.

[@lindaorosco2428]

With the plastic slicer, it could probably be used for slicing other things besides bread. Sometimes a thicker slice of a dessert loaf is nice. :)

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Great idea! I hadn't thought of that! Thanks for your comment.

[@osorn858]

That would be the "heel" of the bread you are struggling with there! I have tried all of these methods except the slicer. It is very, very difficult to cut supermarket bread like slices manually. I'll go for a slicer next I think!

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Yes, the heel, you're right! I knew it had a name lol You will love using a slicer. It's fun, fast and makes the slices the perfect thickness!

[@sylviah1234]

Never slice out of the oven warm bread. Must be completely cool or you will have a Gummy crumb.

[@Padmaja5]

You look more enthusiastic Which is not good here dear😁❤️

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Hey, everyone should be enthusiastic about bread slicing! :D

If you find a source of grain that doesn't have glyphosate (monsanto's roundup) sprayed all over it, let me know.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

I guess I take the "You do your best" road with organic vs non-organic. There may be some organic brands that aren't. Not sure. I have to say though, it's hard to beat $1.45 /kg for bulk bought Grewal stoneground wholewheat flour.

[@adamkrasneski3679]

I personally think all those gadgets are a waste of mone. It took me a while but i got the hang of it. Get urself a bread knife, save ur money and practice.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

I agree that a bread knife is ultimately all you need, Adam. I used only a bread knife for about 8 years. But I do love the slicer

[@knshrikanth821]

Can u show without using knife

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

I don't know how to slice bread without using a knife, sorry.

[@makinggreatbread]

I thought I'd found an answer to slicing bread.. I leave ever more dumbfounded.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

Really? Sorry to hear that. I find the easiest and most precise way is definitely the electric bread slicer.

[@Rayis4444]

I'm so sorry but this video is unnecessarily soooooo long with no help as to how to actually cut even slices.

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

It's fairly simple, @Yashswini291, but as mentioned it takes time (depending on the method you choose). For the knife, you need to ensure you are slicing evenly from top to bottom. You can purchase a bread cutting spacer to take the guesswork out of it, but the one I unboxed is an example of one that doesn't work for everyday slices. The electric bread slicer is very easy to cut even slices. You set the thickness with the dial, and slice away. Hope that helps! Thanks for your comment.

hand slicer 🤣🤣🤣

annoying

[@NotOnlyCarrots]

The plastic slicer was soooo annoying! It seemed promising, but alas. I am definitely a big fan of the electric slicer.
