[@picklesandoxfordcommas]

i bake all the time but... never breads. i'm so scared of the whole yeasty process of letting it rise and whatnot. i can't do it. if i bake a bread it's banana bread, which doesn't have yeast or need to rise... 😅

[@TenderNoodle]

I fear no recipe, not even pastries, but yeasted bread scares the shit outta me lol. I even panic making cinnamon roles

Love the life lesson at the end. Life is rarely perfect but just because it isn't perfect doesn't mean it's not good.

I’m studying to be a baker and It’s my second year. I’m used to using machines to thin my dough after layering and using special butter but I still mess up sometimes. But here you are, doing everything with your own hands and they look so good. I’m really proud of you, anxiety makes us do everything perfect so Please don’t ever feel like you shouldn’t be worrying. That’s the only way they turn out so good :)

I feel the same way when I make a loaf of sourdough. Will it rise? Did I use too much starter? Will the bottom be too hard? But then somehow it always turns out great! As long as you don't give up it just seems to work! 😎

I’ve always wanted to make homemade bread but I feel like I’ll mess it up 😕

[@oscargr_]

It's very hard to screw up so badly that you yourself won't like to eat it. Your family members may be more critical 😉

[@blaackberry]

Baking is a science so take it from a food scientist, the only real way to mess up bread is to forget the salt. It's like the only thing you cannot correct and it comes out inedible. I'd say yeast is important but you'll find out very quickly the yeast isn't working, you can get through the whole process before you realize there's no salt 😭

[@Homeside301]

Even if all these things went wrong, I bet it still tastes good yaknow

[@richiestarks6163]

your message is very comforting.

[@mushfiqurrahman1107]

Thank you for that life lesson. I have an exam coming up and honestly I do fine in my preparation, still for some bad memories I always get afraid that I'm going to mess up. Even the minute mistakes terrifies me to the point that I think "can I really do it?", which is really irrational given that even with those mistakes my results won't be terrible. We all need to remember, it's okay to chase perfection but don’t get too caught up on that. At the end, you will have imperfection on your works but trust me, it's fine. The fact that you tried your best is enough.

Omg the way you described cooking anxiety is exactly how I feel whenever I bake something! Even if it’s something I’ve made like 1000 times, like choux pastry I still get nervous. But you’re right, usually in the end it all turns out fine

I saw the whisk you were using and immediately got happy. My mother was gifted the same Danish whisk and we all love using it. I understand the anxiety that comes with baking, and you can't always make it go away. But whenever it's there, just stop and tell yourself "I'm full of shit, I've got this".

You made that look so easy lol. I wanna make these so bad cus they are expensive to buy 😩

[@miledith555]

Don't be fooled, it's probably one of the most time consuming and active labour heavy baked goods. It takes hours to rise, fold and rest so many times and you have to be careful not to get it too warmed up while folding because then the butter will melt and the layers will fuse together and you won't get that perfect texture. Still very satisfying when it comes out right. I both do and do not recommend it.

[@Pinkpaca]

I love how your learning from your mistakes ✨️ 💛

[@maadii]

i feel the exact same when i make croissants despite making them dozens of times but i think that means i make sure to make them better and better each time as well :)

im a new subscriber and i just wanted to let you know that im attempting to make a starter because of you 🥰🥰 i love baking and last year, i started to learn how to make bread. ive been wanting to make a sourdough starter for a while but i didnt know where to start. i used to be so scared of messing it up, but idk, watching this channel and hearing your stories made me realize that its better to mess up and improve on it than to just stay scared and do nothing 😭😭 hopefully i dont fail too badly (or at all but that would be wishful thinking)
