Easy Homemade English Muffins Without Special Tools 

I am on the same budget as you! Okay a little different as I live in Canada and I'm on 100 Canadian a month. I feed myself and my husband. I know as a student you might not have a lot of time. If you do have time, baking your own bread is actually soooo much cheaper buying from the grocery store. Buy in bulk from something like a Cosco or wherever local restaurants get their ingredients. For fresh produce try to find an Asian food market. Living on such a tight budget forced me to cook and bake so much more than I ever have. I don't have any fancy equipment either. You don't need a thermometer or a scale if you are okay with a bit of trial and error.

@@Ersa0431 Fresh bread is also so much of just waiting so easy to do while you do other things as long as you set timers.

ksaa these would be way cheaper the store bought. You can do this.

@@Ersa0431 oh cool your Canadian same xd

You can save a lot of money by baking your own food.

This right here. 600g of flour is wack. I wasnt paying attention and ruined the first batch

Yes! Had to add 2-3 more T of water for mine.

Wish I would’ve seen this comment after I am praying it comes out half ok 😅 but way too much flour

This is a life saving comment, thank you very much

​@@funafish2351i wish i saw this before starting. What a waste. I dont understand why the measurements provided in the vid is not the same as what was on his website. 🙄

Nathan Ramires How about The Weissman Wiggle Whiskey Jiggle?

@@kristihanno3777 even better

WWW Weissman Whiskin Wiggle

I think The Weissman Wiggle is a winner.

I was convinced it was "the old shake & stir" but I now see I was wrong.

Thanks for the tip as to one reason my nooks and crannies weren't there!

​. mine either. I suck at this!

@@hotwireman49 LOL!

Will be doing that😁❤

I was just thinking the same thing and came down to the comments to find out! 😄

I went to the comments as soon as I heard that 😄

Great minds think alike 🤣

Charlotte Duru ....me too, I’m from Mexico

Denk ich mir auch immer es reicht auch schon wenn’s in der Infobox steht

American here. I also prefer grams! We aren't all a loss. :D

Olha só, uma BR por aqui :)

I use nothing

You mean ecologically more important or does a wet towel support any process?

@@MrVoswald wet towel keeps the dough at a good enough temperature to proof. Plastic wrap has a chance of sticking to dough.

Oh please. Even if our entire NATION did it all! No waste, no plastics, etc. It wouldn't make but a .o1% of difference in the entire world. There are far too many other countries that will continue to destroy our planet, no matter what we sacrifice. I adore plastic wrap. It can be used wisely and disposed of wisely as well. It can be recycled! So I am going to continue to buy that big-ass restaurant size of like 5,000 feet of plastic wrap at Costco. The main problem is NOT plastic straws (that's just dumb-ass) but PLASTIC WATER BOTTLES water SNOBS like you take to your gyms every day, the gas you burn to do your little "Look at me, I go to the gym, do yoga and am saving the planet" types you are. I love it when I have to clean up tons of Starbuck's plastic you Green Earth protestors leave behind after those total bullshit 'Save the Earth' events ya'll attend. Talk about hypocrisy at it's finest. That electric car you drive isn't changing a damned thing. Do your research. That sucker uses what to make it work? Electricity...hmmm....how do ya think it gets to your home? By the use of COAL! Don't bullshit me with claiming to know how GREEN those factories are about creating that electricity guzzling car you are driving can be. THEY ARE NOT. Oh and lets not forget about the batteries that car runs on. Those will have to be replaced from time to time. Ten more times toxic than a regular battery. Need I say more? Vote Republican. Wake the f*ck up.

Me too!

how much starter did you add? and, did you use less flour? I actually had that same idea. I thought that would bring them closer to the taste you get from store-bought muffins and bigger nooks and crannies. Thank you!

Same question

So Alton Brown's "English muffins" are actually crumpets?

English muffins and crumpets are completely different things.

Sofia Ligeiro more like a pancake

A year late I'm here to say nice 👌

Ohh damn, I've never really looked at the number of subscribers for this channel. I agree, it should be wayy higher, I just assumed it was.

@@TheCrathes The number of ones subscribers does not make the channel any less exciting. I never judge a channel based on their amount of subscribers, not ever. Remember, it's best to read the book itself and not judge the book on how someone else characterized it, everyone has a different spin on stuff.

@@DineseBeckert Obviously. I'm saying that judging by the quality of the channel, he deserves more subscribers. That he doesn't have as many as I assumed, without ever having looked at the subscription number, doesn't affect my view of the channel at all. That would be dumb. It's a brilliant channel that deserves a lot more attention. I really don't know where you're getting the idea that I'm judging the channel by the number of subscribers.

@@TheCrathes It is a brilliant channel, why would he want to "drop in quality, like 25%" that was my point 🤗👍

Dinese Beckert Um... pretty sure the "drop quality by 25%" comment was tongue in cheek humorous way of saying "Love you Josh!" Or some such thing. 😁

Rotationsmischung? zu viel?

@@FudgedDiceRoll neeee

Awesome. I don't have milk on hand, but I have plenty of plain greek yogurt. Thanks!

@@SunandSnowGardening Greek yogurt is a lot thicker than kefir, so in general you'd probably want to dilute it a bit, if no other liquid is called for. BTW, a lot of middle eastern and indian breads use homemade yogurt, or cultured whey leftover from churning butter (aka REAL buttermilk) or making paneer.

Can you use almond milk or plant based kefir?

@@noscaasifilmstudios Ive never tried it, but in this case experimentation is not only cheap but edible. 😁

@@noscaasifilmstudios As for fermenting almond milk (which is easy to make BTW), whether or not it would work depends on the types of sugars present. Cow's milk is predominantly lactose, and most of the microbes present in a typical yogurt or kefir culture feed on lactose, and the byproducts of strains feeding on same. I have no idea what the sugar profile of unsweetened almond milk is, so I have no idea how a yogurt culture might respond. But as I said earlier ... experimentation is cheap and edible, so have at it. 😄

Whisky business...

'masterbaking'

You can literally get one for 7.5$ online. WHO can't afford 7.5$ ?!

You can freeze the muffins after they’re cooked. I put em in a freezer safe ziplock bag and just defrost as needed :)

Noisy Chicken how about 'whake'?

Ohh good one I can hear it now “ and after all dry ingredients are added you’re going to give it a good shwhisk just like this and that will thoroughly incorporate your dry ingredients”

Shwhisky business...lol

I know this is super late but if anyone was still wondering i would use 100g of sourdough starter and then do 430g flour and 114g each of water and milk. I would bulk ferment at room temperature for 4-6 hours and then after shaping I would proof them for about 6 hours. Other than this i would keep the recipe the same. I've tried something similar to this and it turned out great! If you try this please let me know how it turns out.

Or english .... i feel so betrayed

It's definitely a muffin en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muffin
