I love when you show how "things" happen in the kitchen, shows that you are a real cook!! Thank you for the recipe looks delicious!

I love this stuff. These comments are ridiculous. If it’s food, and it tastes good, I don’t care if it’s authentic. Truly authentic human cuisine is raw unseasoned meat, LOL! Thank you for the recipe, John :) P.S. I’ve made your artisan loaf a dozen times now. It’s my favorite bread recipe now because it’s so fast and simple and rewarding.

I love when someone as experienced as you tries something new and shares it. Baking is an art, it is incredible that sweet recipes and bread recipes are so so different.

Made the recipe and it came out perfect. The olive oil was the trick, moist inside and crusty outside. Thank you

I am quick to click when the word EASY is in the title. I barely make myself do the least amount of kitchen work possible, so I am attracted to non-fussy recipes. Thank you for those!

Thank you John for being specific about the type of yeast! Most online bakers either don’t know or don’t bother to tell the difference and just use the term “dry yeast” to describe whatever they’re using. They almost never specifically tell you whether the recipe calls for instant or “not instant”…

Another amazing recipe. I love your tutorials and I really enjoy watching you. And don't even get me started on the yellow bowl....all the cracks and chips, how simply charming!!! I love it. I go to garage sales to look for plates and bowls just like that. ❤
