Love the recipes, but I do miss having them written down below video. :-)

brenda okuda I had to google “struggle meals, bread” but it’s there on the website! But I get it’s so much easier to have it here ✌🏻

One of my "struggle" go-tos using flour is Korean-style pancakes. Flour, egg, water, then chopped and/or shredded veggies of choice. (Nice way to use up veggies, too!) The batter should be just a little on the thin side. Fry up & serve with a dipping sauce of choice (my favorite: soy sauce, sugar, rice vinegar, plenty of chili paste, couple drops of sesame oil--all staples in my pantry. Or just a squeeze of lemon juice works nice--not traditional, but simple and good). Versatile, cheap, easy, quick, tasty.

[@KC-zn1mg]

Throw some mashed potatoes and a little onion and fry up with a little oil and it makes for great potato pancakes. Could even be adapted for using up thanksgiving leftovers easily

[@teresamcmurrin8672]

Frankie, it's the end of the summer, fruit and veggies are ripe. Why not give us some tips how to preserve some of that in-season cheapness?

that's the idea!

[@robinhawk]

This was from their facebook page: Open-Faced Bacon, Leek, Tomato & Goat Cheese Sandwich Yields: 4 servings Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes Ingredients: 4 thick slices artisan bread 4 slices bacon 1 leek, sliced 8 ounces goat cheese 1 cup cherry tomatoes 2 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves Salt and pepper Steps: 1. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add bacon and cook until crisp on both sides, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from pan, chop and set aside. 2. Reduce heat to medium-low, add the leek to the pan and saute until tender and slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. In the last few minutes of cooking, toss in the tomatoes and cook until they just begin to blister and soften. Remove and set aside. 3. Use hot pan to toast bread. 4. To assemble, spread 3 to 4 tablespoons of goat cheese on each piece of toast. Top with leek tomato mixture and bacon pieces, and garnish with parsley.

[@Melissandrel]

we miss the recipes in the description T_T (I mean being French, this comment could seem as a disgrace, but you know what your recipe Frankie seems way easier than the one I have, so I'm interested XD)

[@DvLnDsGyZ]

Frankie is the only reason I subbed.

[@thomasbeebe-wurzer3061]

Me too

[@Adoak1]

Add a teaspoon of salt to that and it's a basic pizza dough.

[@thegourmetgrandadandfamily]

You can't get better than home made Bread and a great Sandwich too ... cheap oh yes please.👍👍

[@gregjames5648]

Am I missing the actual recipe for the bread? What temperature and for how long? Is there a text version of the recipe?

[@marianmacfarland8701]

That is actually going to change depending on your climate, which is most likely the reason he didn't give that direction. With the dough, you want to add flour and water in small quantities until you have the texture you want. Then for baking it, usually it will be between 350° and 375° F

[@mirandamom1346]

Have you tried the no-knead dutch oven bread recipes? Even easier.

[@lem0ntr4sh38]

PLEASE put the recipes in the description or have a link!

Interesting tip of adding ice cubes to the cast iron skillet in the oven to create steam while baking the bread. 😀

I started making yeast dough’s 12 years ago! I love your ice in the oven to create that blast! I’ve been using the spray bottle, but you lose too much heat every time you open that oven! Frankie, I always learn something from you and I’m a well trained cook! I love you Frankie!

I love how piggy 🐖 is keeping an eye, on the rising dough.

[@violetarena995]

I know that most people don’t really bloom instant yeast, but I like blooming instant yeast because it gives it that extra rise that you usually get if you do a double rise.

It is so refreshing to have one of these budget eats video with REAL pricing. I know Europe is grand with their affordable food costs, but bread is 8$ here too. Would love to see more vegan content tho.

Do like the South African strugglers. I forget what they call it in Afrikaans but it’s just toast with onion, tomato, then cheese on top then warmed in the oven to melty perfection.

What temp for baking ? And how long

[@kikialdama2528]

What do I preheat my oven too ?!

[@EvolutionYUK]

my question is how do you protect a camera inside that hot as oven??

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

The bread looked so lovely when cut like madeira cake. I prefer rolls so I'd section it into those and freeze some as it's a waste otherwise if you live alone. Also you could try wholemeal flour or 50/50 to up the fibre content.

[@jb6712]

His whole point is economy---most flours other than white are far more expensive than a lot of people can afford. YOU could probably go ahead and "up the fiber content," but many people are just trying to get from one payday to another without spending a lot on food.

[@thejustinnava]

I tried to make it, eyeballing what he doesn't clarify. The bread came out good, and it rose a ton! Also this comes out as a sourdough bread. Still delicious

[@jessicareynolds55]

Justin Nava mine is on its second rise. How hot did you have the oven? How long to bake?

[@thejustinnava]

Jessica Reynolds I think 35 minutes on 375. But id try for 40-45 minutes if it really rises up so it cooks all the way through

[@patrickcarroll7185]

Dearest Frankie, you are a genius my friend, xx

[@M4TTYN]

this was scripted, thank the writer to camera ppl too

[@pkhame]

I did the bread by guessing the amounts and temps. So...it did not turn out like it wished. Feels like I lost out on .88 cents.

[@thefaceofinsecurity]

Paul Sengkhammee when I made this the first time it was so incredibly bland. EVERYTHING else was perfect. The crust was perfectly crunchy, the bread was light but chewy but it just had no FLAVOR. Luckily my roommate was a good sport and ate the loaf and just dipped it in an extra cup of marinara sauce when he ordered pizza. I followed the recipe to a tee but it def needed more salt

Making the bread today!

[@casuallycare]

What temperature is it baked at?

[@JessicaSavery97]

Best bet cause it a lean bread (only flour, water and yeast) it should be about 200-220°c. Breads bake between 25 - 45 minutes so I suggest watching it every 5 minutes past the 25 min mark.

[@Userhandle7384]

No salt in the bread?

Dude! $5.88 for cheese! Seriously?! There wasn't a cheaper cheese out there?

[@Fluffiekinz]

Cream cheese is cheaper and just as tasty. Just let it come to room temp and mix in some herbs and pepper.

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

That's about £4.50? Yowzers that's a lot! Here in the UK you can buy Goats Cheese like St Helens for about £3. Feta is kind of similar only less pungent and cheaper. You could also melt some mozzarella which costs about £1.50 for the basic stuff.

[@caitlinhill5569]

@@Fluffiekinz ^^^^ And cream cheese actually tastes good.

[@ambeegaming76]

Yeast is surprisingly expensive almost $2 for a packet

[@HTNPSullivan]

I think it's Amish, but there's some kind of yeast you mix and then dip into as needed to make more, it's something like "friendship starter" because you can revive it with flour, I think, and pass it along to a friend. Now I have to go look this up because I'm not able to extract it from my old-lady memory. But it's a great way to cut down on buying yeast and I think the result is something like French bread? If I find the recipe I'll come back and share it.

[@HTNPSullivan]

It can cost $8 for an artisinal loaf, yes. Not for grocery store bread

[@FrankieCooks]

Yup, NYC is its own universe

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

Here in the UK for organic artisinal loaves like sourdough they cost anything from about £3 upwards. I think Selfridges do a £50 one which is about $100. You'd have to be either Scrooge McDuck or insane to spend that on bread, that's a lotta um bread spent on bread!

[@Jcstuart1]

Jasmine Surreal yeah I live in the UK! Would never pay more than £2 for a nice load and at the moment that’s about $2.40 with the exchange rate being so bad.
