Your music choices are...interesting.

[@burtony3]

If you want steam in the oven, one way I have found is to fill a metal tray with lava rocks (used in charcoal grills) then pour hot water over them in the oven. They will steam up nicely. If you use a disposable cake pan, you can then store them with the plastic lid on.

[@michelefisher5171]

Can you please leave a link with the recipe please! 🙏🙏

[@The_Gallowglass]

That's just about how I do my sourdough no-knead dough. Only difference is that I preheat a cast iron pot for an hour before baking, then drop it right in there, instead of on a pizza stone.

I'm a professional baker in a country where yeasted bread aren't very popular. We wait long for customers to order sourdough artisanal Breads. Making these breads is a journey in itself, it requires devotion and motivation but once you are in there's no return. Thanks for sharing your journey and showing people how much hard work goes into one single bread. Most people think it's just a product they can buy with money. It's science, hard work, passion and patience altogether in one bread.

[@sandynightingale273]

Thank you for your dedication to your craft. I love fresh bread and I prefer to get it at the bakeries. I'm going to try to make it myself. I certainly appreciate a great product 💗

[@itsshrimpinabag9544]

I wish someone in my city would sell whole wheat artisan bread! No one does. So I'm just going to have to do it myself. Maybe if I put my bread up for sale, someone like me will be glad to see it's available!

[@foofghtr]

I was at one time a professional baker of Italian breads. I worked for Gentiles bakery in Philadelphia and my boss Dan Gentile Sr was born 1912. Dan was a baker of hand made Italian bread 50 years before he hired me. My tips I can give you when you make dough will better your product 100%. The main problem with people who make dough at home is they have central air, ceiling fans, open windows and sometimes open doors. When you work with dough all that has to be turned off or closed tight. If your dough gets hit with air it will get a skin and then it’s trash. You gotta sweat to make bread, that’s just how it is…it’s a hot job. When you cook the product it’s safe to turn fans and AC back on… We cooked at 410 degrees, I see 500 as normal temps to cook home bread. Gotta slow it down 410 will do it….

[@ted1091]

What I enjoy most about your videos is that there is always a logical reason for the way Italians cook, and that you explain that. Also Eva always makes the point that vegetables are supposed to have flavor - not the cardboard type we find here in the US. Which is why I grow my own. It's an important concept.

[@maticiafatima9305]

Thank you for this cornbread recipe. I am going to make it for my 85 year old mother.

Now I will surprise her.

This channel is making me realize that Italian food is one of my favorite. Eva is making me want to visit Italy. The people seem so loving and no BS. Lol.

[@Missfire267]

I knew ciabatta was a high hydration dough, I was always afraid of making it due to the high hydration and sticking to everything. Now that I saw Eva making it, it seems much easier to me. I’m going to try making it soon.

[@TheTenCentStory]

I love ciabatta bread

[@stevemonkey6666]

I agree. It seems to be a pretty easy bread to make with a really good result

[@Lagolop]

High hydration doughs are not that difficult to handle once you get the hang of it. Light touch. Typically I do not use any extra flour when forming the loaf. Use the tackiness of the dough to help you get surface tension. A little practice goes a loooong way but it is very rewarding.

[@Lagolop]

PS I have never in my life used "bread flour". I use all purpose flour as a base and usually include a percentage of ra whole flour like rye, semolina, whole wheat or ESPECIALLY spelt in the mix. Spelt lends a fantastic taste and smell. If you use AP flour just make sure it has a decently high protein content. I live in Western Canada and our AP flout has a pretty high protein content (greater than 12%) which is why I do not buy bread flour.

[@gonzoducks8]

AP flour in the US is weaker. European flours are also weaker than the flours in the Americas.

When you think back on the history of the Roman Empire and how important these breads were, it’s pretty crazy to think of. They went to war over the wheat supply, the entire reign of an emperor could depend upon whether he could keep Rome supplied with wheat. That’s one of the reasons Rome was so interested in Egypt.

Brava Eva! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻 And I want to second what you both said about nothing being better than a good panino made with delicious Italian bread and delicious Italian bread dipped into tomato sauce: NOTHING better in the world!!!

I did not learn much about baking while growing up, but I did learn how to can and freeze foods in my early 20s. I am grateful that I have this knowledge.

Their house would smell wonderful while it was baking. Also my Mom's side was from Sicily but they made a pizza but not with cheese just tomatoes and olive oil and oregano it was amazing.

It's nice to see a bread episode. I started baking my own bread maybe 7 years ago and then switched to making only naturally leavened (sourdough) breads, rolls, pizza dough, pastries, etc about five years ago. The alchemy of mixing water, flour, and salt together in different combinations and ending up with entirety different results still amazes me.

Classic bread from Umbria and Toscana regions is without salt (pane sciapo), since a Pope put taxes on salt on XVI century, and there was a war, we still eat that bread, it's perfect with any dish but much more with "salumi" (cured meats) like prosciutto, mortadella, capocollo, etc. On these days WHO recommend use less salt as possible, so less cured meats as possible... and also no salt on bread is another good solution, even to not change the taste of the dish.

[@gregoryschmidt1233]

I've heard it called pane sciocco. ;)

[@icoborg]

the roman empire has nothing to do with the bread without salt....It was about a tax though, for tuscany they are various theories, probably a Pisa tax on salt, in umbria it happened surely for a Papal state tax on salt

[@andybranca]

@@icoborg yeah, you're right, I corrected it, Romans built the street of salt, la Salaria, to transport salt all over the Empire. A Pope during XVI century put a tax and start a war between Stato della Chiesa and Perugia province, part of Perugia city was destroyed, now Rocca Paolina is underground and is just what remain from a fortress.
