Bread expert challenged to tell the difference between cheap and expensive loaves
by Mark Frauenfelder from on (#43GCZ)
I like these Epicurious videos where food and drink experts are given blind taste tests and asked to identify the cheap and expensive samples and explain their reasoning.
In this episode of 'Price Points', Epicurious challenges bread expert Jim Lahey of Sullivan Street Bakery to guess which one of two breads is more expensive. Lahey breaks down white bread, whole wheat bread, rye bread, sourdough bread, and focaccia bread. For each type, Jim analyzes, smells, and taste tests before guessing which bread costs more.
