    Eight months ago I was struggling to find something to do, to keep myself occupied. I'm a retired engineer and worked all my life from starting in 1974 to finish in 2016. I even thought of going back to work. I bought a N gauge model train set but that was a complete failure. Engineers' fingers are exactly the same size as N gauge trains; you can imagine the problems lol. Now entirely thanks to you 'John Kirkwood' I am a cooking fool; the success of the farmhouse loaf was my launch pad. My pride and joy are my cast iron pans and Dutch oven. I am extremely proud and protective of my sourdough mix. I have branched out into sausages and soon will try meat pies. Here where I live in rural North East Thailand they had never seen pancakes or crumpets, now the family love them. Thank you sincerely for your help, it is much more than you might imagine and more than just the bread.

    While I was watching this video I had a loaf proofing which coincidentally was the same recipe you are using. I baked mine in a bread cloche and it turned out excellent. I like using the cloche as it eliminates the need for the pan of water in the oven. Another great video John, every recipe of yours I have tried out has turned into another favourite with the family.

    This loaf was delicious!! Chewy, crispy, light and loads of flavour. My family ate the whole loaf before it could get cold!
    I use very strong Canadian flour (you can get this in Tesco in the UK) it has 14% protein and tends to make better bread than the usual 12.6% protein strong flour

    Well John, I've been baking my own bread at home for years now. Mostly sourdough. When your loaf came out of the oven I could almost smell it. It made me think of my childhood back in the UK. A doorstep of farmhouse bread with a lump of farmhouse cheddar and a dollop of Branston pickle.
    I'm off to bake a loaf right now. We can't get Branston here now after Brexit. If you have a recipe for a similar farmhouse pickle, please make a video for all of us Expats.

      @@JA-iu8bo You need strong flour for bread like this - I am not sure how it would be labelled in the US, but check the protein content on the side of the bag, which should be between 12 and 14 per cent (or grams per 100 grams). All-purpose flour, akin to what is sold here in the UK as ‘plain flour’, usually contains between 10 and 12 per cent protein. If you can find white flour which is unbleached, so much the better.

    Beautiful loaf, John! I enjoy your videos, because they reflect so many comfort foods that truly are the mainstays of most family's meals. I’ve been an amateur bread baker for about 15 years, and seem to get the best compliments on my simple, basic loaves like this one. I make an Italian loaf with just flour, water, salt, yeast and one ounce of olive oil, which our grandchildren call "Grandpa's bread!" They eat it without any topping, and is the first thing they look for when they visit. I’m a retired handyman and have lots of time to dedicate to making loaf breads, English muffins (American style), sandwich thins for our lunches, as well as dozens of sourdough, no-knead, wheat and rye bread formulas for various seasons and holidays. We have not had commercial bread in our home since I started this hobby. I guess that makes me what is called "old school!" I’m 71, so I guess that's appropriate.
    Thanks for the time you put in to make these videos. I have a small channel myself with videos of the most popular breads I make, so our children can follow my methods when they make bread in their homes, so I'm very aware of the time it takes to produce and edit them. 👍👍
    BTW, I have a two loaf batch on first proof, using your formula. Looking forward to tasting it in a few hours.

    John, what's your opinion of hand kneading versus machine kneading when it comes to the crumb and taste test? The crumb on that loaf seemed so consistant and fine. It would be interesting to see a side-by-side, like-for-like comparrison on a future video.

    • @JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade

I've worked with my hands ever since I was 12 years old, with the last 30 years working a keyboard for my IT job. Odd thing is typing doesn't bother me but kneading bread dough does. Tried a Bosch mixer, ended up prefering a 6 at. Kitchen-Aid Stand Mixer.

    For folks struggling with bread making, I've found the freshness of your ingredients REALLY makes a huge difference. Years ago I baked 2 loaves a week for myself and my husband, and I had access to a health food store that would grind my just purchased grain to flour for me, as well as selling "fresh daily" yeast pellets. On bread-baking day, I'd buy my grain, have it ground to flour, buy my yeast, then go straight home and bake. My loaves would rise so high I had to remove the upper oven rack, and the interior of the loaves were so wonderfully soft, the crusts so crusty, we'd eat a half loaf within 20 minutes of them coming out of the oven, hahaha. So tip: buy flour in small amounts, same with yeast. Anything that's been in the fridge or cupboard for more than a few weeks is going to reduce the quality of your final product (eggs and butter included, if used). You can feel the difference when kneading, also super fresh ingredients will allow you to use less flour, giving you airier loafs.

    Another delicious recipe, absolutely spot on! I've now made over a dozen of your bread recipes and every single one has been a winner (with friends and family too).
    My sourdough starter is aging nicely and tasting better with every bake. Thank you so much John, you're a proper star!
    I will be heading over to your store to purchase some baking essentials to help support your wonderful channel.

    Morning John, I am using this recipe of yours with a 30% wholemeal flour mix and must say it is a great bake. The fine line to keep is with your water percentage. It is a fine loaf that comes out of the oven. Thank you once again for your guidance. No more baked bricks in my house!
