This must be a non-American thing because outside of being raw dough or burnt, I’ve never once had to clarify how cooked I’d like my bread.

[-] EyesEyesBaby@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

As a non-American I have no idea what OP is talking about.

[-] loaExMachina@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I'm french, I just assumed it was the same everywere.

As a bread enjoyer, I'm intrigued. Would you like to elaborate a bit? All I can find is different types of bread (like different flour, shape etc.).

[-] zaph@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

So is cooked a translation thing?

[-] FarceMultiplier@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

North America doesn't have a bread culture like much of Europe does, and it's sad.

[-] Pandantic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Just what I was thinking. I don’t think I even have a proper bread making bakery in my town. I wish I could be in the culture that this comment is from.

Where I am you can buy part-baked bread and "well fired" rolls. https://aldprdproductimages.azureedge.net/media/resized/$Aldi_GB/05.04.22/4088600273976_0_L.jpg

I've never heard bread referred to as "cooked" in my entire life. Baked, yes.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

You’re telling me you’ve been eating dough this whole time?

[-] db2@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Next you'll tell me it's just flour yeast eggs milk and salt, has the whole world gone mad? 🍞 🤪

[-] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Most bakery bread doesn't even include eggs milk and salt

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Bread is just flour, water, yeast and salt (you really need the salt). If it has anything else, you're either being sold something fancy or some industrial crap.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Baking is just one type of cooking.

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

Op being French is the only kind of context that could make this post make sense.

I'm super confused.

Is there a reason you're saying cooked rather than baked?

Even swapping cooked for baked I'm still confused.

I heard somewhere that one time there was an Asian lady that didn't know the word 'toast', so while at a restaurant part of her order was 'bread, medium rare' LOL!

Hey, lacking the right word, it does at least make sense when you think about it for a moment.

[-] skillissuer@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

op what are you ~~doing~~ cooking in your shower

[-] jesterraiin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Overthinking.

Do not do it.

[-] n00b001@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

But these bread buns are hot and need glazing
