It looks very good bread that you prepared, in my country Venezuela bread can never be missed we classify it in French bread, peasant bread, bread quill, among others and you can eat at breakfast, lunch or dinner and with different contours. I'm going to encourage you to prepare one at home.

Thank you! Yes bread is amazing, especially homemade bread.

Yep thats definitely Italian bread 🤗. I love how you keep your instructions simple and not a whole lot of random ingredients that are tedious to locate. Thank you 😁

hahaha thank you! Yeah I like to keep things simple when I can, although sometimes you have to add all kinds of ingredients, lol just depends on the recipe. lol and you are welcome!

Good recipe my friend! One ask, why you write the ingredients on tbs and cups?

Thanks! Because here in the America we use American Standard cups, etc. And I was in a hurry with the post, and didn't have time to write the conversion down. It is in there now.

Oh nice i see, let me try this recipe! Thank you my friend!

hahaha you are welcome!

ahhahah, beautiful and terrible))

Dude! I would KILL for a slice of that. I bet it tastes like Heaven 😋

Wow thanks! :)

Oh, my. What a wonderful post and video. I just have one small problem. Actually, it's a fairly large problem and it lives right behind my belt buckle. As a regulation fatboy I'm pretty sure I used up my entire carb intake for the whole day just watching this :)

I really do love the video and your presentation. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thank you! :) haha hilarious. I would say just eat a small amount of it, but I already ate half of it and it hasn't been 24 hours yet. lol Again thanks so much. :)

Dude, my mouth is watering!!! I have to tell you, you’re blog is quickly becoming a must try recipe book for me!!! Great job!

Thanks man!! I appreciate that! Definitely try the bread out sometime and see if you like it. :) And then let me know how it goes and tastes. haha

This looks so good and you make it look super easy. I always have a hard time with the yeast. That's always the disaster for me whenever I try to make homemade bread, but I can make one heck of a good beer bread. Congratulations for your successful post. I resteemed this as well.

Thank you so much! I think you should give it another try. :)

I may give it another try soon. Hopefully it comes out edible and not intended for use as a stick or ball bat. Haha.

You should definitely try it again. :) hahaha I have had some turn into bricks before. lol

I will, but I think I will have someone around to help me out especially when it comes to the yeast part. I think that's the part that always messes me up.

So what messes you up with the yeast part? Does it not get foamy?

It may be a combination of that and the kneading part. I've not tried to make any homemade bread in years since the last fiasco!

give it a shot following what I do in the video and I bet you will have a great experience. :)

thanx for the recipe

you are welcome!

Trying to keepbread out of my diet but that is s tempting

Do it, Do it, you know you want to make some now....Do it! lol :)

@mrchef111 LOl well Sunday I do slip on my diet a little so maybe I will :)

Cheat day! lol Nice. :) I had tuna and veggies for lunch, well and chips, to wash the tuna down. so I think I can eat some more bread with dinner tonight. LOL so good.
