Soda Bread | Cooking At Home With Jacques Pépin | KQED

[@JamesStray]

If this were to be done with whole wheat flour, would you add an extra egg to help bind?

[@kqed]

That's a good question. Does anyone know?

[@jasonquigley2633]

If you wish to use whole wheat flour, I recommend making Irish style soda bread instead. Darina Allen has an excellent video on KZbin to demonstrate how.

[@luciaperdue5687]

James Stray Irish soda bread has no egg or baking powder. It has baking soda /bicarbonate soda. I use wholemeal flour also and no problem

There are no words to adequately describe the comfort derived from watching Jacques in the kitchen. Love this man!

This is the best cooking show ever. No frills, just a master sharing his secrets (in a kitchen which looks remarkably like my humble kitchen).

Even just the way he stirs the flower and all ingredients together makes me so happy !!!! Thank you again Jacques

Lol! My husband is a Mexican man, and it is also very difficult for him to have dinner without bread.🤷‍♀️ I'm American of English extraction, and I do dinner just fine without bread, except if it's fresh from the oven, then there's no way I can resist anytime. Thank you, Jacques. This recipe looks like another real winner!! I'll be trying thissoonerr than later.😘❤️

I really like this series - short and useful. No expensive or hard to get ingredients and Jacques is the perfect teacher.

I am in love with these Jacques Pepin videos.. He is such a fine person and it shows! He is my Chef Dad who I appreciate and love... :)

Simple and great. As someone with French heritage too......Bread is a must have in meals. A quick and simple Soda Bread....absolutely yummy. The best part was hearing jacques say his oldest motto "Happy Cooking!" That made my day along with the video!

I like how humble he is. He never introduces himself as Chef Jacques Pepin. I watched more of these videos - and he does use Chef. Still a humble guy though.

[@fun_ghoul]

People who call themselves "chef" before they run a kitchen are clowns. Sadly, the industry is replete with tiny cars packed full of them!

[@TheVetusMores]

@@fun_ghoul Sort of like people with PhD's who insist that people call them "Doctor." I always ask, _Can you write me a prescription? Then, no._

[@fun_ghoul]

@@TheVetusMores Not really, because a doctor of English will never accede to become doctor of medicine.

[@TheVetusMores]

@@fun_ghoul Which is why it's even more annoying. If someone has done the time in a commercial kitchen, and has the requisite knowledge and skills, I have less of a problem calling them "chef" (if their ego requires it) than I do calling a doctor of English "doctor", to use your example.

[@danielsummers7162]

@@TheVetusMores I know I'm a bit late to comment, but the medical profession stole the title of doctor from the PhDs and not vice versa. I still think that it is not needed to insist on being called doctor except for in formal settings when it might be appropriate

[@fun_ghoul]

i don't mean to answer for Jacques, but...use whatever is available, cheap and good. Squash, celery, carrot, broccoli and cauliflower all make excellent puréed soups, which also all freeze quite well! Oh, did you already catch his tip about freezing veg scraps for stock? A good stock is the basis for a good soup. Outer onion layers, carrot ends and peel, celery ends, etc. He uses milk cartons, i use large yogurt containers. Whatev. P.S. As it happens, I'm a '79 model as well. Cheers

I love his shows. Why is it called soda bread if it has no baking soda? Or did I miss it?

[@richardadams4928]

Baking soda is one of the main ingredients in baking powder.

[@misssoarneagle]

made some last night! was good! ..... What does covering while cooking do?

[@richardadams4928]

Probably encourages rising by increasing steam production, much like how popovers rise.

[@marcelocerveiradepaula2352]

I bake soda bread at least once a month. I prefer to make it sweet, so I put sugar, raisins and vanilla extract.

Imagine that, ingredients most people have on hand, no waiting just mix it up and put it in the oven.

An Irish staple. This is usually made with sour milk.

[@CJ-im2uu]

I judt tried making this. Shortly after I put in the oven, I thought SOB, did I put in the right amojnt of milk.

[@TrophyGuide101]

If anyone is making this you can swap milk for buttermilk, takes it up a level.

[@bullirish]

I use buttermilk, is there a difference?

[@carolelerman9686]

I'm sure soda bread is made with baking soda and not baking powder. Am I wrong ?

[@leonidas7692]

Soda bread is easy to make?

[@MrSullismom]

No baking soda?

[@bartosznowak7842]

As I know baking powder is kinda universal, baking soda activates in sour environment - there's need of some butermilk or sth like that, so maybe because of using just milk in the recipe Mr. Pepin uses baking powder instead of baking soda?

[@fun_ghoul]

Baking powder is soda+an acid (cream of tartar, monocalcium phosphate or both if "double action"), plus corn starch to keep the acid and alkali from reacting. There's also self-rising flour, especially in the UK, which comes with those pre-blended into the flour; you just add your liquid and you're done. Note that you could also still use buttermilk in conjunction with the other acids.

[@daryl9434]

Interesting. No acidity to help activate the rise, so it's meant to be a more hard firm bread.

[@robertballuumm730]

This is the first recipe I've seen from this great chef that hasn't come out properly. The dough was far too wet which was probably why the bread looked too solid. Irish soda bread doesn't have egg and uses baking soda not baking powder. Plus better to use buttermilk or even milk that's slightly on the turn to react with the baking soda.

[@disco0752]

It contains sodium bicarbonate in the leavening ( cream of tartar plus bicarb.) hence soda bread.

Soda Bread is one of a thousand different types of bread you can make, and very common in Ireland. It's kinda like a cracker/cookie, and is good dunked in coffee, soup and commonly in **beer**. If you don't like this style, don't make it. If it's all you've got, it's better than starving.
