Please can you make a wheat sandwich bread?
It was amazing! Followed the recipe to a T. Only had low fat milk it came out Great!
Great video Billy! Can I incorporate the Biga or Poolish vice dry yeast, if so, how much should I add and do I need to decrease any other ingredient? Also, can you please do a video on baking white hamburger buns (they look like store bought but have natural ingredients, nothing to fancy) Thanks again for all the great recipes and your awesome details!
I thoroughly enjoy your vids Chef. Would it be possible for you to get the audio adjusted simultaneously with the video? That is my own personal grievance because of being primarily a visual learner 🙂
I love the recipe. It’s easy, and turned out beautiful. But it’s really dry. Great for French Toast, but it’s like sawdust for sandwiches. Help!
After successfully making a few of your other bread recipes, I thought I would try this one next. The previous ones have worked great. This one not so much. It just didn't rise and my guess is the cold milk! What did I miss or did you just not say to warm the milk? I realized once i got the hand kneading part of the direction and the dough was cold I was in trouble. I'm still letting it rise in the oven with a pan of hot water under it to create a better warmer climate so we will see. But my guess its going to be too dense and chewy. I'll let you know.
Thank you for sharing all your experience and knowledge
You are so right
my bread turned out soooo dense lol will try again later
I just made this bread. Its so delicious! It is an absolute keeper!!! In one loaf I added butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins then rolled it up… omg!! Thank you for the PERFECT white bread recipe!
When it comes to bread making Chef Billy Parisi is always at the TOP of his game! I wished I could buy stock in his techniques!
Hi Chef Billy. I’m a new subscriber. I have tried your cinnamon rolls and everyone loved it! Now trying this white bread recipe… but I might have killed the yeast with the water I used (i guess it’s too hot) because I did not observe the same rise in the dough as in the cinnamon recipe… oh well. I hope it will still turn out ok. (They are currently in the oven…)
Anyway, thanks for sharing these awesome recipes. All the best!
Can you use 2% milk vs whole milk, or does that mess it up?
Can you sub the flour for gluten free flour? if yes, which one would give the same texture ? Bob's GF all purpose flour or Bob's 1:1 baking flour? Thank you 😊
So true!
Great! Only your trick with the light in the oven only works in older models… mine has a bulb that doesn’t get warm at all
You say to add milk but you don’t specify if you’ve warmed the milk. I’m assuming you would but I would like to be certain.
Hey Billy….convection or static? What do you usually do? Thanks
Billi can you give me the ingredients in grams. I know you like using grams to measure and I think is a lot easier and more accurate. Thanks
Has anyone used a bread machine for mixing and kneading?
Thank you. I used to make sourdough until my wonderful partner could not stand the smell of the starter. This is easier. I prefer your Country Loaf – the long time from 9 am to 4 pm.
Can u show me how 2 make Honey Wheat Bread? My parents can't eat white bread and I'm so tired of buying store bought bread, thank u in advance 😊
Chef Parisi:
It's not stated in the recipe, but I'm assuming the oven has to be preheated, before bread goes into the oven… Correct ?
New to baking bread, and after a couple “failed” attempts at making overnight poolish bread (SO sticky!!!!) I figured I’d try an easier bread. Everything went well with this recipe, and my loaf turned out beautiful. The end product has somewhat of a yeasty flavour to it. Is this normal?! I don’t usually buy or eat plain white bread, so I’m not exactly sure if this yeasty flavour is supposed to be there in the final product.
Hi, Chef Billy! I’m making this right now, and I was a little concerned that I didn’t have the exact ingredients. I only have half and half, and the regular white all purpose flour (because apparently, this pandemic made flour an in demand commodity) so I only have what’s available in my local costco). However, as I was patiently letting my mixer knead the dough as followed in your directions, it came out perfectly. I just had to add another half cup of flour for the consistency that I saw with your dough in the video. I also kneaded it for 3 minutes, which I enjoyed because it really is a beautiful dough, regardless! Now, it’s proofing in the oven… the hardest part in doing this recipe is the waiting! But seriously, I’m confident this will come out perfectly. Real thumbs up recipe! Will update you on how my bread turns out! Thank you for this recipe and all the others! I’ve done your Brioche bread recipe and it’s perfect as well! 👍🏻🙌👩🏻🍳 Thank you!
Can I change butter into margarine? I’ve been wondering whether it will taste different. Thanks!
Can I use skim milk instead of full fat milk?
Hi Chef Parisi…the video shows two loaves but your written instructions left out, 'cut the dough in half' thank goodness I have watched your video several times. Waiting for the second rise in the pans. Getting excited to bake this bread. Your sourdough video was the best. Tomorrow's dinner…your chopped steak recipe! Thanks for your great videos. 🙂
I just made this and OMG it turned out perfect. I’ve never been able to bake bread without ending up with a brick. Thank you!!!
Your video says 425 degrees, the recipe says 400. Does it matter as long as the internal reaches 200?
Quick question.. if I didn’t want to bake both at the same time, is there a way to store half of the dough?
I made this and it was perfection – I'm so pleased!! What a fun and productive way to pass the time during these weird times. Thank you Billy! 🙂
When do you use all purpose and bread flour? I'm so confused, most of the recipes I came accross for white bread asked for bread flour
Can I use 2% milk instead of whole milk??
Forgot to tell you, loved the way you shape the bread before putting in oven, and the water temp for the yeast was also helpful. I have made bread in the past and often would have trouble with the rising. I think I didn't have my water temp high enough. Thanks again!
Followed your exact instructions, and the bread turned out wonderfully!
Due to the covid19, we couldn't find bread in any supermarket. Then…I found this and I just made it tonight, it became an instant hit with my fam. We now have bread for the coming days. This doesn't even need eggs, but it just needs a few tablespoons of butter and sugar. Ahh! I'm so happy I saw this. Never going back to store bought white breads again when it's this easy to make, plus knowing what goes in your food is great too.
The stores only had instant yeast, is there a substitution ratio?
why does my bread is little bit sticky after cooking?
I made it tonight and it’s sooo good! I’m not going back to store bought again Thank you!!
I made this but did one loaf in the pan like the video and made one big round loaf similar to the other breads on this page. My baking time was 2 minutes less on the large loaf and 6 minutes less on the bread pan. Simple and Tastes great.
Where are you doing business?
Your videos are awesome!
I've been looking for a recipe to make home made loaf of bread for a while. This is the only one I've found that you really can have a wonderful loaf of bread in 2 hours. I've ruined more bread than I've made so I'm no expert by any stretch of the imagination and mine came out amazing. 100% worth trying out for yourself. Oh… And the oven trick with the light, amazing. Just don't forget about it like it did. Mine almost tripled in size. Still turned out great though.
At 4 1/2 cups of flour mine became a dough ball. Is that OK?
