» Proof Bread is a modern throwback to a way of life that values small-scale craftsmanship, local community, and creativity. We are a small group of passionate bakers working in our garage (thanks to cottage laws) which has been converted into a micro-bakery. Everything we bake is made by hand, from the best local ingredients, with no short cuts.

I'm a retired baker with 45 years experience. I always used 'lidded' trays when baking English Muffins. Basically the lid was the same rectangular shape as the base tray but just a little bigger so it fits over the base tray. Lids were put on before proving. Lidding the trays meant the top and bottom face of the muffins baked and coloured at the same time. No flipping needed.

[@GypsyEncounters]

Good tip

[@jacquelinemulders9975]

“If the mold won’t eat what you want to eat. Should you be eating it?” Perfect !

[@andrewfox723]

I can’t put into words how this video makes me feel. So happy for you guys. I’ve been watching for quite some time now and the transformation is insane. I hope to visit one day!

[@moniquejim1277]

I’ve been watching it so many times too, so beautiful

[@zachyates4232]

This is extremely impressive. Multitasking and filming during a high pressure situation is not something many could pull off; especially with such ease. Hope the opening went great!

[@rothgartheviking858]

he has a ton of practice. But the avg person very hard.

[@Allenzo04]

for some reason I read that in Gordon Ramsays voice. Hahaha

[@katiemcdavid4124]

JUST pray and God will certainly bless you all.

[@CrankyAuntyLinda]

I’m so honored to back you, I knew you could do this. Your team is amazing. I hope that now you’re spending more time with your lovely family and that your girls are happy and healthy.

[@melissaw6411]

Jon and Amanda! Woohoo! I felt myself become emotional when I saw customers in the bakery…what a journey! What a story! You are an inspiration. I can only try to imagine the demands of this day and I admire your dedication to family, the bakery and this channel. I eagerly watch every video, dissect what I can and transfer that knowledge to my own home kitchen. I am forever grateful for the Gochujang Bread recipe…it will always be our favorite. This planet is lucky to have people like you. Saskatoon, SK Canada

[@jamesmurphy1480]

You can tell how much you love baking and the sourdough because you’re such a good teacher at it

[@denisemoon5853]

We both wish you all the best in your new adventure. We both know how hard & challaging it can get but you all have that passion to succeed !!!! My husband has been a baker/pastrycook for nearly 50 years but soon to hang the boots up but still has that passion !!! Regards from Western Australia

[@sheilam4964]

On Apr 22, 2020 in the description of Proof Bread's first video, Jon said "We’re in this together. Those of us who are farmers, ranchers and bakers have been on overdrive to help feed this city. Everyone is undergoing massive change. If you notice the differences, I encourage you to practice empathy to your neighbors as they adapt. It doesn’t really matter what you did a few weeks ago on the regular. Chances are, it’s different in some way now. Chances are you are learning how to adapt. Let’s be aware that all of us are in that boat, and let’s focus on coming together as a community." . . . . . A year and a half later, having watched all of the videos that have followed, including today's video, Jon, family and all of their workers at Proof Bread are still talking the talk and walking the walk. RESPECT. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@davidclark5138]

Congrats to you John, And all of the staff at proof . What a great effort in getting the new bakery store such a huge successful meaningful life experience. 👏

[@khangvu8759]

Love your job dearly. As a retired baker, i do miss the early morning chores in bakery, you are reminding me a lot of the old days.

[@diariesofaladyangler2917]

This video is so emotional. It’s making me cry of happiness! You guys have persevered in so many ways, and your mantra of sharing your growth is inspirational ♥️🦋

[@argo12]

This makes me so happy to see you all busy and with so many customers coming in! Everything looks delicious. Wish I was closer so I buy one of everything! Best wishes for continued happiness and success!

[@msPaulaA1]

Congratulations on your soft opening. I’m rooting for you and I know you’ll succeed with all y’all’s dedication and skill. GO PROOF! Woo woot

[@choqalala727]

I lovvvvvvvvve your new bakery!!! Thank you so much for supplying the people with REAL bread! I am a true believer that this is the only kind of bread that is healthy to eat! I make all my baked goods with sourdough starter and never use commercial yeast! You are my hero!👍🏻🥰🌺

[@Oumajiii]

Probably the one of the most unique channels on KZbin, wish you guys all the best.

[@tanyaewbank3107]

Keep Aloe for those burns. Keep applying. Works wonders. I know~ I used to work in a bakery!

[@haekyungryu4320]

What a genuine love for bread! Best wishes to your business. I wish I could visit your store someday.

[@dianeluke1746]

Congratulations on your soft opening! I so wish I could come enjoy your bread!

[@katek8442]

Congratulations and Bountiful Blessings on your new adventure PROOF! I'm on week 3 of a vegetable juice fast, and watching you all methodically, carefully, intentionally and soulfully bake bread has been soul food and good medicine for me. Satisfying on many levels, especially knowing that people who truly care and foster a culture of honor are prospering and being rewarded in kind. PROPS PROOF!

[@safetydave720]

Best wishes, John! 26:01 Your "signature" score. The mark of premium quality.

[@DakotaChambers]

"If the mold won't eat what you want to eat, should you be eating it?" perfect way to explain why we should be wary of preservatives in our food haha.

[@oyetim1506]

Wow, this is massive and beautiful. More grace

[@junglejohnplaya]

SO nice to see the art side of bread making, the work you have gone through to get to this point looks exasperating, nice to see there are still people who want to take on this work load, bakers are under appreciated for sure,, not by me of course, wish I lived next door to you, Id be there every day .. good luck in your business and thanks for the Video

[@dylanc1925]

This is the first video I've seen from this channel and it looks like I'm about to binge watch. I love bakeries. Looks like hard work to manage it all. Everything looks so delicious.

[@jamesmurphy1480]

When I was overseas in the Navy I remember getting bread like that it was so fresh that the crust was crusty in the center was warm and toasty and delicious

[@elizabethheyenga9277]

Found you guys recently so watching all that has happened is a journey. You have born up to it well - I believe even those crappy challenges (the home bakery) are to move us forward done right. You guys exemplify that. And yes, both of you can bake and teach and do it all with such ease, you are MADE FOR THIS. Thank you for the inspiration from a home baker - it is about baking with love and a connection.

[@aday1637]

If you've ever attempted to make bread for the first time, you realize just how much of an art-form it really is. Getting the stages just right is a bit daunting. It is a specialty...the word 'baker' denotes this. Personally, I've made bread many times and I've had many failures. I'm just now getting to the place where I realize the success of all the experience. Having a really good baker and bakery in your village is a wonderful thing. I applaud the efforts of these folks.

[@ThePerfectCurry]

It has been joy to watch you grow. I love baking. I bake all my bread at home and learned so many tips to perfect my loaves of bread. I was heartbroken to know someone was wondering to push you guys out of your house. But look what they did ! They made you open your own store ! I am very happy for you. Congratulations to you and wishing all the success

[@bavariasuhl]

looks wonderful , wished i lived in AZ would come down and say hi.

[@dogit1840]

I would try not to lose that as more and more fans finding the store your ability to talk directly to the customer fans 👍👍👍👍🍞🍞🥐🥐🥐🥖🥖🥖🥖

[@choqalala727]

I have been watching your journey for awhile now and seen your growth and growing pains and I am so blown away at your progress from not knowing how to bake to your beautiful bakery now! I wish I could come and work with /for you and learn your process! You really have come a long way in a short time and I’m so proud of you!😍👍🏻🎊Congratulations!🎊🎉

[@RuthlynWills]

Just sat here smiling throughout this video 😊 ... soooooo happy for you guys... I just know you all are gonna SMASH this!!!

[@donnarichey144]

So much work.Good for you guys.

[@chilipez2934]

I wish you all the best of success. And thank you for taking us along!

[@geraldoreyes6146]

Love your new bakery, the bread and pastries look so amazing and delicious. God blessings over you and your bakery.

[@rugfixr]

This entire video bursts with passion. Such a joy to witness

[@mattevans-koch9353]

So glad to see you and the crew at Proof are getting fitted into the new bakery and routines. It will take a while, but when you get everything working as smooth as you can you won't believe everything was any different. Take care all of you. Be safe, stay well and keep forging ahead.

[@rodbartruff7823]

When I go to Turkey one of the things I love is getting fresh hot bread from the bakeries. You can watch as they pull it out of the oven bag and hand it to you. Also no chemicals in anything

[@suzyq6767]

I love baking bread. Since I cook for just myself, I developed a one-serving loaf. That way I can eat fresh, hot bread every day without gaining weight. Your breads look lovely.

[@acm0332]

Of course. Just had to return to Jersey. Can’t wait to get home and check out the joint!

[@Cat_Trainer]

I love bread, i wish i could work there and experience working with people that stay true to their mission.

[@kennykennington5876]

Great to see everything coming to fruition after such a long slog. Glad that I could help in a small way, even from the UK, with a donation to such a fabulous bakery, with an equally fabulous story. @thebreadcode noticed the Gluten Tag on the door at minute 28:03 - Good luck for the Grand opening. Well Done to all

[@jakesmotoadventure3579]

Can we please take a moment for how he's just casually chatting away while putting bread into that absolute beast of an oven!!! WOW!!!

[@eugenekamphotography5346]

Amazing how he orchestrated everything with timing. So precise.

[@mvadu]

Congratulations on making this far John.. Your uplifting spirit is contagious..

[@1961Lara]

We used to do something like this at our bakery. People really LOVE knowing that the bread is hot out of the oven. They didn’t even mind waiting if there was coffee! Good luck!

[@yodrewtube]

In the beginning, I can’t unsee him sprinkling fairy dust on the dough🤣

[@christenlarsen1617]

Hello from Denmark, im a baker here and it's fun to see how your take on danish pastry is, we usually fill a little marcipan filling inside the square and fold the corners in, then when proof'ed we give them egg wash and press the middle with 4 fingers and then fill them with either jam or cream, called a spandauer. :) love your channel :)

[@ElJefe-Patron]

The proclivity of this man with his craft is extremely noticeable in his final product. I'm so happy I randomly found this place.

[@G-BEAR]

The new bakery looks great. Happy for You guys

[@JulieGracie]

Wow such an inspiration and so happy for you!

[@johnwalker9452]

Saying Hi from the U.K, love your `go get em` enthusiasm and the great staff you have around you..

[@JackieOgle]

Awesome and congrats! I'm happy for you all! Exciting! Impressive. Sounds like a very cool place. I love places like this.

[@richardkuhn8115]

Go get 'em guys! Your videos are SO Professional! What a wonderful bakery & bakers. Blessings to you ALL!

[@mikethughes]

Wow, randomly found this video, and am so excited when I realized you guys were in Arizona!

[@glennstasse5698]

Man, that’s a ton of work you guys do! Good luck. I hope this pays off in proportion to the immense effort. I don’t doubt it will, though.

[@loraineswwworld]

I love the model! I love when I walk in and see people working and making food, it makes me feel like I’m a little village girl. There’s a part of me that LOVES (even if I’m sad) when something is sold out and I’m forced to try something new.

[@martinbyrne5626]

The place looks amazing!!

[@dishmurphy5754]

Sending huge amounts of love & blessing. You’re very kind to keep us involved and to watch your much deserved success. ✌️💚 & congratulations 🥖 🍞 ☕️ 🥐

[@nickguan5116]

Full of admiration for your work, all of you guys seem to be a great team.

[@andrewvillanueva3722]

People are so lucky to have this bakery in their town. I have to drive 30 minutes to get to good bakery like this. Good luck to this bakery in the future.

[@Dmenbiker]

Jon, Morning... I'm so happy for "you"... Seems the transition is going smooth.... Your success is inevitable... Cheers...

[@davidmackintosh429]

Really inspiring video, how you keep so calm in such a high pressure situation is impressive. I would love to get there one day to try your bread and pastries, they all look amazing! 👏👏

[@carrielea6009]

Good luck, looks great!

[@MiroBG359]

don't know why KZbin suggested this video but good luck with your hustle, that bread looks phenomenal!!!!

[@elswalleyn5044]

Congrats with the new bakery. I wish you and the whole team the best for years to come. Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪

[@63pufferfish]

The is one of the few channels I watch at normal speed. Good luck on the grand opening.

[@0Engineer]

Good luck, looks like an awesome place

[@StevenNess]

Really appreciate Emerald's attention to detail on the shaping of the baguettes.

[@anastasiyayurkevich6083]

We soo happy for you ,guys!!

[@anthonyoloughlin3532]

From UK. Looks amazing. Good luck to you guys. Nothing like fresh bread with lots of butter.

[@Yousoundvaxxed]

It’s apparent you have a passion for baking. Keep at it!

[@christanzer]

When you take out the pastries, put them on bottom up the shelfs , so they cool faster, than put them under the cooling pastries, so it takes to long to cool !! Just a tip !! cool job!!

[@SriRaamajayam]

good tip

[@bernie_sandler]

That oven is insane.

[@paulychannel7914]

Love your work! Love your work ethic ! Love the way you guys stay so cool whilst " under the pump"! Congratulations for making it this far & nailing your first opening! Your products are World Class & you should be VERY PROUD of yourselves! RESPECT! Regarding your english muffin dilemma, use silicone baking paper on the trays & you'll never have another stuck muffin ( or related burn! )

[@freeaolcd]

Holy crap those ovens!

[@DARKLYLIT]

You guys (and gals) are SO AMAZING! Your PROOF sign and the new bakery look FANTASTIC and I can't believe you're making that extra leap to have hot baked goods ready for customers as soon as you open.....and on the FIRST DAY?!! I can see John writing a book like Tartine has, in a year or so. Truly amazing progress in such a short time. I can't see you not becoming one of the best Artisan bakeries in the U.S. in the next few years.

[@Dennis-Olsson]

Very impressive! Love sourdough baking! Thanks for sharing everything. Cheers from Sweden.🥳

[@knessing7681]

very educational and insightful guys. very nice.

[@karendikitchen8439]

Awesome.... My passion for baking will come true like yours👌👌👌👌

[@alexgorki]

Congrtats! The bakery looks phenomenal! Well deserved :3

[@josephharrell4961]

About those burns, grit your teeth and stick your arm in the oven. It will hurt like heck for a couple of minutes but it will take the sting out. It works. I started baking over 50 years ago and I've done this many times.

[@antjee]

Congratulations! Your hard work and dedication pays off now. I am happy for you. (Whatever happened to the puppies)?

[@jasoncook2294]

Respect the hustle!

[@felixr.6438]

Absolutely stunning what you've made out of this place and how far you've come in general! I love that concept so much of that kind of bakery restaurant hybrid. Some bakeries here in Germany do that as well, especially if they're in the city center. Sometimes they even offer 2 or 3 lunch dishes/sandwiches. If I knew a place that was as cool and creative with their recipes as you guys I would go there constantly. I really hope I can visit you some day. Keep it up!

[@pearsc5d]

Love your videos. Makes me want to be a baker . Problem is , all I have been able to bake thus far is dough hockey pucks . Maybe tomorrow.

[@andreassteinhauer1724]

PROOF = Entering dreamland! Wonderful ... Greetings from Innsbruck / Austria.

[@lucabaldoni8911]

i have been a follower since very very long time...finally i am able to fly to Phoenix on Dec 6th for a client meeting and i will for sure make it to your bakery...love to try some of the bread and pastries as well...

[@RicardoJunqueira]

I have never been a big fan of bread but damn, now I want to travel to Arizona just to try yours. They all look amazing.

[@yossibonomo9647]

Absolutely wonderful. Can’t wait to make my pilgrimage to your bakery on my motorcycle from Chicago.

[@stephencraker3988]

Yellow mustard on a burn like that helps give quick relief. After getting burns at the oven and using a bit of yellow mustard I have found the healing to speed up and less irritation the next day

[@HowToCuisine]

It must smell amazing in the bakery! 😍😍

[@christanzer]

Wow, congratulations , your workshop looks great, Well done, !!! Well done !! Hard work, cool job, Thanks for sharing !!!

[@sarahricaz]

I’m so excited to find your videos! I have been making my own sourdough for the past there years for fun and science. I was so happy to learn that you are in Mesa! Me, too!! I can’t wait to come visit

[@jasoncopin]

You really got good crew. They love working with you.

[@ampp.8998]

Beautiful and yummy looking baked goods....just know that I'd be right there if I lived closer....much closer. Thank you for sharing.

[@AlexAlex-gj4jd]

16 views! I'm sure it went well!! Congratulations after all the hard work! 🎉

[@pastpianist]

Damn that's a hell of an operation upgrade

[@seanmcerlean]

Superb work folks.😄 Just like what we do over here in Europe.
