Welcome to the Wordloaf Friday Bread Basket, a weekly roundup of links and items relating to bread, baking, and grain. I’m still working up that shokupain de mie recipe I promised earlier in the week, so keep an eye out for it someday soon. One thing I forgot to mention is that it’ll also include an alternative formula for making mini hot dog buns, which is something I worked up for Liz Cook and the excellent/gross Substack newsletter
For years, I've shown my high school culinary class a video from Jaime Oliver's site that shows a young woman making a roast chicken salad. It's filled with intentional sanitation and safety errors and I have my students make a list as they find each.
This year, I decided to try and find the real recipe. It's Zuni's Roast Chicken & Bread Salad. We made it the week after watching the video in August. My students still talk about how delicious it was. I'm intrigued by the vegetarian version.
Bahn Mi is so amazing with the right bread. I can't wait for you to hone your recipe. I have a great recipe for the meat and pickled veggies, but struggle to find a good bread. Sometimes I give up and make fresh spring rolls with the ingredients instead of fussing around for bread.
The bread salad and everything bagel tortillas make this email a keeper!
