    I made this bread using my bread machine dough cycle for cooking class & it was awesome. Everyone loved it. I've been asked to make it again for fellowship lunch this Sabbath. PS. I used a whole can of coconut milk + 1/4 Cup of coconut water. Thx the recipe.

    Just discovered you on youtube a few minutes ago. Watched first black cake followed by sugar cakes. Wonderful to have you on here doing these wonderful Caribbean recipes. As for the coconut thing,well i heard it immediately watching both videos and now this one as well. Fine that someone else cared enough to tell you,if not,i would have. Better to be corrected than to keep saying it incorrectly. You do a wonderful job here with these recipes. Keep it up.

    The coconut is dessicated not decimated. Desiccation is the process of extreme drying. To decimate is to kill, destroy, or remove a large percentage of.

    If I do not add the yeast, will it change it much since I just want a flat bread?

  • @bridgetr7166
    @bridgetr7166 Před 6 měsíci

    Chris, thank you for sharing this recipe. I will try it. However, I need clarification I don’t have access to fresh coconut so when I buy it in the stores am I buying unsweetened coconut or am I buying sweetened coconut for this recipe ? Can I knead the dough in a Stan mixer? I will send you the pictures on Instagram.

    Is it sweet

  • @bobbipins
    @bobbipins Před 11 lety

    Did you forget to add the quick rise yeast? It's still quite dense even with the yeast. Make sure you use the yeast and give the dough about half an hour to rise before you pop it in the oven. One time I was making bread and it didn't really rise and was insanely dense and almost raw in the middle. It was only afterward that I realized I had made the mistake of using our blending flour, not the all purpose flour, and that was more than likely what caused the problem. Lol.

    It's better to use the unbleached flour

  • @shevahmorris9132
    @shevahmorris9132 Před 11 lety

    it's usually not to sweet not too fresh..kind of like a fresh pound cake...but, sweetness depends on u n ur taste buds....but it's a "comfortable" kinda sweet NOT a "snicker-bar-tooth-decay" type of sweet :-)

  • @grasworxTTGameplan
    @grasworxTTGameplan Před 10 lety +1

    the shortening gives the crust more crunch, so the more you use, the harder the crust gets, compared to butter. (use unsalted butter, not margarine.)

      LaDonna Louise it depends on a lot of things. Did you use the original yeast where you have to dissolve it in warm water? was the water too hot?
