TV, and radio for Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day: We’ve demonstrated HBin5 across the US, on TV and radio in Minneapolis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Orlando, Pittsburgh, and on the web.  Check out a sampling of our TV and radio appearances below, or, to see some free instructional videos we’ve shot ourselves, click here and scroll down to see the listed videos (don’t click on the word “Video” in the list near the top).  You can also see and subscribe to all our YouTube Videos.

Our official video, designed to get the message out about “Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day” (click to view).  Shows the standard mixing and shaping technique.

November 5, 2009, a San Francisco appearance on KGO-TV (ABC): “The View From The Bay.” Hosts Spencer Christian and Janelle Wang helped us mix the Whole Grain Master Recipe and Zoe formed a 100% whole wheat Holiday Stollen (click to view).  Great fun, but one caveat:  when you mix the dough, you can’t use a wire whisk! That kind of whisk is for blending dry ingredients only.  Use a wooden spoon to mix the dough, or a dough whisk, such as this one available on Amazon.  Those work beautifully, actually easier for hand-mixing than a wooden spoon.

December 10, 2009, on KARE-11 TV (NBC) in Minneapolis, another go at the Christmas Stollen with Showcase Minnesota host Rob Hudson. We made lots of Stollen this December; Jeff was on again in Pittsburgh (12/18/09), shaping one on KDKA-TV (CBS) (click to view).
