Thug Loaf Shows Rappers on Loaves of Bread​Thug Loaf is here to drop some dope loaves on you. He’s a master baker in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Lately, he’s been making loaves that reflect specific rappers, such as this one of Cartier’GOD. Accompanying TikTok videos helpfully explain how each loaf is baked and painted.There’s a recipe for each loaf, most of which are sourdough. This one is a rye, which I’m going to guess fits Cartier’GOD’s style. It’s painted with activated charcoal, which Thug Loaf colors with edible pigmented powders.-via First We Feast#rapping #bread
This Bread Is Made with GatoradeDennis Lee, a professional food writer in Chicago, has recently been experimenting with baking bread. He discovered a no-knead recipe in the New York Times that is astonishingly simple. It’s just flour, salt, yeast, and water.It was that last ingredient that sparked Lee’s ingenuity.You see, you don’t really need water—not pure water. You just need a water-based product.Like Gatorade.Lee selected the “flavor” of Riptide Rush, which is blue. The resulting dough, he says, “smelled hilarious”. That’s normally not an aroma, but only for those of us who don’t bake with Gatorade. After the dough rose, he baked it in Dutch oven.Lee reports that there was a bit of grape aftertaste, but not much. “Basically, just take a grape-scented marker, scribble all over a piece of bread, shove it in your mouth, and there you have it.”-via Kottke #Gatorade #bread
Sourdough Bread Loaf That Looks Like a TurkeyRedditor mazekeen has a great idea for Thanksgiving, but I’m not sure if it increases or decreases the actual workload of preparing a turkey. Their sourdough bread recipe uses a combination of bread, wheat, and rye four. The dough rises for four hours, then one hour, then an hour and a half, and then a final hour. That’s probably necessary due to the complex shaping necessary to get the turkey look perfectly, even after baking. That baking requires a three-stage process at two different temperatures.Perhaps, due to the complexity of the task, it’s as difficult to prepare as the traditional Thanksgiving turkey dinner.#sourdough #baking #bread #turkeyImage: u/mazekeen19
