Cairnsprings has some really great flour. their trailblazer sifted at T85 is really phenomenal.
Good
Oh no. You've lost it. Video says your name instead of the featured guest.
Ben Simantov is Isra!l!s. Stealing all of these recipes from the surrounding countries. Boycott Isra!l!s everywhere including content
And I am super disappointed in you Brad, hosting someone supporting genocide on your show.
I am so grateful to have this recipe and technique. And you two are so good together. Fun, on point, very nice vibes.
Hey Brad!! XO 🙂
Cant wait to try. Lets go Brad!
Thanks for this! Am I missing the adding of salt somewhere?
ngl these look amazing
What a magnificent beard! Fresh pita is soooooo tasty.
is that Subspace Emissary music?!?!
One thing he got wrong is where pita is from, ancient egypt did have flatbreads similar to pita but they were barely leavend, the pita that we know as pita the fairly leavend dough flatbread with the distinct pocket is most likely from Palestine.
Shame on you collaborating with a Zionist! You even have orientalist music! Stealing Arab food culture, passing off European fantasy music as Middle Eastern! Israel is doing JENN ASIDE. 18,000 dead kids! More journalists killed than in any conflict in world history! Millions made homeless!
Wow, I've been a fan of Brad from when he was screwing around in his fermentation station at BA but working with an Israeli is where I draw the line (and I'm a white dude). They're actively committing genocide. And this one for sure did his mandatory military service in the IDF where he likely killed many Palestinians. Unsubbed after many years!
Brad you beautiful golden retriever of a man…. Please learn how to balance your audio lol.
🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
Im digging this combo
You've got to drop the recipe for the macarel & salad!! Don't leave us hanging.
The vibe is POTENT
Disappointed to see you hosting an Israeli who fundraised for soldiers of the IDF who participated in the ongoing genocide in Gaza Brad. I have enjoyed your videos since the BA days, but hosting someone like this 2 years into a genocide where hundred of thousands have died, including children and babies that have been bombed, starved, and sniped. I can't support it.
Brad I know you're all for peace and love – but this guy absolutely supports apartheid and genocide – he has proudly posted from the Golan Heights. Please take this video down – support the BDS movement
Could it be done with sourdough starter instead of the yeast?
Love that Palestinian pita bread!!! Probably would have been wise to have someone of the culture this bread comes from, as opposed to a colonizer that’s stolen food culture from those they oppress, and claim it as their own.
Free Palestine💚❤️🖤
There are thousands of people you could work with and you picked this guy, at this time? Seems intentional
Fahrenheit…. Relax✋ 😆
Did anyone else simply not get the cute little round springy guys experience at the rolling stage? I rolled mine lightly twice, turned 90 degrees, rolled twice again and after I’d let them rest they were just flat and oval shaped. They didn’t puff at all when cooking at 240C which is as high as my fan oven goes, and they have no cavity. So I’ve just made individual bread portions
I don't normally comment. Just wanna say that bread pocket is pretty cool. Good job.
surprised he didnt say pita originated in Israel.
I’ve learned a lot from you Brad… maybe it’d be good to learn how to make pita bread from a chef who actually had a grandma or two that actually made pita bread.
perhaps it’d be good recognize the historical moment it’s disappointing and feels like I’m seeing you pedal in passive ghee-cide laundering Brad
been makig similar pita/flatbreads for 2 years now!
an oven steal works great in a regular home oven
we alsways do Tarte flambée or pizza first
so i can make 1 starter dough for everything
This is awesome thank you so much for posting this!
Has anyone had success doing this in the pan?
Is Brad just done learning stuff he already knows? Like this shit is alightly interesting to me but it does feel like Brad knows more than he’s letting on and that feels not great
Great recipe great guy great Brad.
Excellent way to explain the shaping of the dough balls!!
