  1. I just found in my files an article dated March 29, 2010 by Jeff Hertzberg pertaining to the deli rye bread and rye flours. Have been trying for the past hour to find that article as when I printed it out evidently a good part of it did not come up. If anyone can help me I shall be extremely grateful. Many thanks.

  2. Hi Jeff,

    I am anxious to make the Cranberry/brown sugar bread 🙂 I got that we let it raise for 1 hr. 20 mins. And bake at 450 degrees. Is that for 30 minutes like the other loaves?

    Also, is it best to let it cool before cutting, or can it be cut warm….yum 🙂

    Thanks!
    Katherine

    1. Katherine: which recipe in our books are you using as the base (which book, page number)? I like these to cool but it’s a matter of taste.

  3. Good Morning,

    Yes, it would help if I told you which recipe huh? 🙂 It’s the Master REcipe Boule Page 26 of your first book (I have all three) “Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day”.

    Thanks for letting me know. Have a good day,
    K

    1. Thanks, but to my original question…. how long do I cook it for? And with the water in the broiler pan, yes?

      K

  4. Kath: Same baking time if you stick to a 1-pound loaf. Larger will need more: 2-lb takes about 45 min, and 3-lb takes about an hour. Height of the loaf matters, and use an oven thermometer…

  5. Is there a way you can post a picture or video of just how sticky the dough is suppose to be? I know you say to mix until there are no dry clumps, but can you show us?

    – should it look like play-doh? Taffy? mud?

    1. Jennifer: Shouldn’t be that wet, which of our books are you using (which recipe and page number)? Check our videos on this page– click through to our YouTube channel.

  6. I am using the Artisan Bread in 5mins a day. I dont know page number, its on my Kindle. Its the basic recipe.

    61/2c flour
    3c water
    11/2tblsp salt
    11/2tbslp yeast

    Mix until clumps gone, let rise with lid vented at least 2hrs, then put in fridge. Then bake. 🙂

  7. yes i did use the scoop and sweep. I ended up making the bread last night, but in a bread pan rather than on the pizza stone. (i read on here how you shouldnt wash the stone and i did! I had no idea!!) and it turned out GREAT!!! I loved it!

  8. Jennifer: if it’s still too wet, just use a little more flour in the next batch (and be sure you’re using unbleached flour– not bleached).

  9. It appears u understand very much with regards to this subject and it all shows via this amazing blog,
    titled “Video+TV+Radio | Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day”.
    I am grateful ,Roy

  10. Hi,
    Today I made the Sun-dried Tomato, Parm Bread. When I cut the bread it had a hole across the inside top. I read somewhere what that means when the loaf does that but I cannot find the information. What does that indicate? Thank you,
    Sharon

    1. Hi Sharon,

      This is always a possibility when you are rolling ingredients into dough. If an air gap forms and it contains steam, it will get larger as it bakes. You can try rolling it a bit tighter the next time.

      Thanks, Zoë

  11. Hi,
    I love your book!
    I have made the Pecan Sticky Rolls twice.
    I would like to bake the rolls in the morning to take to work while still warm. I don’t want to have to get up 2 hours earlier to do this. My question is: if the night before work I prepare the dough with butter, honey etc, roll, cut and place in a butter 9″ pan and refrigerate will the rolls rise correctly when I bake them in the oven the next morning.
    Thank you for your time.

    1. Hi Sharon,

      Yes, this works beautifully! They will rise slowly in the refrigerator. I usually let them sit on the counter for about 30 minutes while the oven preheats.

      Enjoy, Zoë

  12. Jeff or Zoe, my dough only rises about half of what yours does in the picture above. Following instructions exactly and using Philsbury all purpose bleached flour. What could I be doing wrong?

    Thanks, Rocky

    PS My life is better because your bread is now part of our life. THANK YOU

    1. Which recipe (which book/page number)? How are you measuring? What flour are you using? Most importantly, what kind of hole structure are you getting in the finished bread (that’s all that really matters)?

  13. I use only fresh milled flour that I grind myself. I would like to be able to make breads in the cloche, but have had no luck. Do you have a video or u tube that would show this process? I own all your books but have not found any luck figuring this process out. I do not want to let the dough sit for days in the fridge, because that defeats the purpose of the fresh milled flour and all its nutrients.
    Thank you.
    Janet

    1. Have you seen our cloche posts (no videos)? Just type the word “cloche” into our Search Bar above and the first three posts listed are about baking in a cloche. When you say you’ve had “no luck” baking in a cloche, what do you mean?

  14. Your book The New Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day is great, but there’s one recipe shown in the pictures for which I can’t find proper instructions. The color plates before page 81 show multi-colored pull apart rolls and cloverleaf rolls. Neat! But the book doesn’t explain how to create the darker color.

    1. You’re right, we forgot to list the pumpernickel dough (page 123) in the list of possible doughs in the Ingredients list on page 88. You can pretty much use any lean dough in the book. And the truth is, probably any enriched (though you have to bake at the proper temperature for each dough you swap in)
