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 11 months ago

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

[-] loaExMachina@sh.itjust.works 8 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

So is cooked a translation thing?

[-] FarceMultiplier@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago

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

[-] Pandantic@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[-] db2@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months 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 11 months ago

Baking is just one type of cooking.

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 14 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[-] jesterraiin@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Overthinking.

Do not do it.

[-] n00b001@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

But these bread buns are hot and need glazing
