  1. As a professional baker we used to make over 50lbs of white and rye sour daily. Never heard someone babble this much about a simple sour. I don’t see any hair covering, washing of hands or aprons. If you have a sniffle blow your nose and wash your hands! Who wears a fleece jacket while handling flour and why keep pulling flour from a bag, pour some in a container? Not very professional IMHO.

  2. 10 minutes in and he’s still talking without actually doing anything. By now my yeast is dissolved and my milk scalded, salt, sugar, and butter combined with it! Next I’ll add my yeast to my warm water and add my scalded milk mixture to it! I’ll add some brown flour mix it like crazy before adding the remaining strong hard wheat all-purpose flour.

  3. If you have any kind of attention span deficit this isn't for you. No-knead artisan bread takes 4 items to build it…water, salt flour, quick- rise yeast. Stir in the correct proportion, let it set overnight…..no rocket science here. Many recipes out there. .02

  4. I have an interest in people who don't know what they doing; yet have lots of resources-and are willing to make a spectacle of themselves while basically wasting your time. Lots of people in charge who seem to know nothing-but have the attention of many. It's remarkable. "essentially no difference between sponge dough and direct dough"….."sponge dough is better"….I would recommend this video as a sleeping aid.

  5. For we new folks you might add below the maker of that knife, and the size of the metal bowl so we can get started. Does this apply to all bread Doughs?

  6. OMG…..Are you kidding???

    Dusting, adding flour, dusting again…..over and over again.

    Hasn't this guy heard of 'Baker's Math'?

    And he says he is a professional baker.

  7. I found this video was particularly hard to watch because these guys had hairy hands, hairy arms, hairy fingers, hairy faces, scraggly hair on their heads, nasty soiled baseball caps, fuzzy sweaters, watches and rings all willing and able to harbor and release into the lovely dough bacteria and particals not meant to be part of bread. UGG….

  8. That time when you leave YouTube on autoplay, watch something totally unrelated, then the answers to all your bread making problems come up after you had already given up and put a loaf of bread dough in the oven!

    Google: Stop listening to my home. Thanks.

  9. Thanks for mentioning that lead is white! Did not know that 'till now! Am convinced it's in the pipes going into my home, but will do testing to find out.
