>Soup in a bread bowl
Good or bad, /ck/?
>>7151065
>a bowl I can eat
Good.
Good.
It has the potential to be a meme food but it's not.
Only gripe about bread bowls is the bread to soup ratio is always like 3:1 and they're always stale. Have yet to find a place that hollows them out correctly or uses fresh bread.
>>7151065
Good. Great for clam chowder.
>>7151082
I thought you had to use stale bread because its tougher and less prone to having the soup seep through?
Great
>Soup in a bread bowl
>a bowl I can eat
When will this meme end?
>>7151090
If they glaze the outside correctly it will lock in any soup leakage. Plus it won't rape your mouth like stale bread does. Also makes it easier to pull apart and won't flake all over you.

man that don't look too guud.
>>7151118
I honestly want to punch the chef that thought that was a good idea in the throat, and I'm really not a violent person.
>>7151099
How do you properly glaze it?
>>7151159
Semen.
>>7151065
I prefer not because I like to dip my warm bread into my soup
the bread gets kind of soggy, I don't like it at all really, it's the same reason I dislike traditional french onion soup, I get really grossed out by soggy bread, I'd much rather just a nice few slices of sourdough on the side with butter that I can dip in when I want to.
>>7151159
Instead of using and egg and water wash for your glaze, use an olive oil glaze instead. Light coat before and after it comes out of the oven. The science behind it is pretty obvious, water and oil won't emulsify, thus the bread bowl will retain moisture and allow it not to leak soup. So long as it's a very light glaze it won't leave your bread too oily, and the olive oil will add an savory flavor to the bread which is a plus for many soups.

It's right up there with people who drown their food in siracha
Best breadbowls I had were from a street vendor in San Fran. Chowder in a breadbowl was fucking delish.
>>7151242
Did you get a side of feminine tranny dick with that too?
>>7151245
Indeed. It made the chowder even creamier.
My friends and I got into a debate today over the difference between sauces and condiments. Do you guys think there is one?
Personally, I think condiments are what goes on a sandwich or similar food item and sauces are things that go with other dishes, Also, sauces like ketchup can be condiments, but not all condiments, like onion, pickles, and salt, can be sauces.
One of my friends thinks all sauces that would be found in sandwiches like mayo, ketchup, and mustard are just condiments no matter what, and my girlfriend just thinks everything is a sauce, no matter what it goes on.
What does /ck/ think about this? Do the semantics mean anything? Am I just a fucking idiot?
>>7151268
Holy FUCK I meant to make this a thread, sorry
tasty bacon bowl > shitty bread bowl
>>7151065
I enjoy it occasionally, maybe twice a year. Almost exclusively for chowders instead of soup or stew.
Doesn't the bread melt? How does it not end up a gloopy mess?
>>7151090
Bread bowls typically use creamy and/or hearty soups, the viscosity of which is much too thick to seep through rapidly.
>>7151280
You use stale bread and hollow them out almost completely. The stale bread softens when it absorbs the soup, but shouldn't fall apart.
>>715109 or you could use a harder bread like a sour dough for a harder crust and leave more of the bread in which is what I do desu
>>7151065
fuck useless carbs.
>>7151075
Found the guy who wasn't around in the 90s
How do you eat this? The soup first, then the bread? Or alternate between the two? When I eat soup and bread with the soup in a normal bowl I usually alternate. But I worry that with a bread bowl alternating would compromise its structural integrity.
>>7151140
Is this from California?
>>7151306
Use a creamy soup because it's the best. Dip the lid into it and eat the lid that way. Use a spoon the rest of the way and eat the bowl as the soup gets below it.
>>7151097

you just made a shitty goulash, congatulations
Why not just get a loaf of bread and eat it with the soup that way you don't have to wait till eating all the soup and make a mess eating the bowl. Also what if you don't finish all your soup?
>>7151365
tee bee h I pretty much expected that response
>>7151776
You're a fucking moron.
>>7151065
Usually you're getting less soup for more money, so hopefully you love the shit out of the bread
>>7151155
All the litter on the edge of the plate is what gets me. It's nonsense. Also it seems like these would be mildly annoying to prep. Then, how do they fire it for service?
>Place precooked onion bowl in convection oven to heat up
>Meanwhile pile rock salt onto plate and regurgitate chopped herbs onto everything
>Onion is done. Ladle in soup from steamtable or sauce pan and garnish some more
Meh I guess it's easy enough to assemble. Still seems gay af though

Just had chili in a bread bowl. Shit was cash, but my diet is ruined for tonight. Bet I went WAY over my cals for the day.
>inb4/fit/
nah just /fat/ trying to be less /fat/
eh, it's cool once in a while. there was a pretty good street vendor out in pier 39 in SF that was good.
>>7152460
I usually get kicked out for fighting or something similarly boring and stupid. You've taken getting kicked out while drunk to a whole new level.
>>7151097
The bread bowl really is a meme.
Are bread bowls dishwasher safe or do I have to hand wash it? If so is it like le creuset where I can't scrub it with steel wool?
>>7154671
You give it a tongue bath while making lewd noises.
>>7152460
That HAS to be black out levels of drunk, yet you remember it. Worst I've done is trying to literally pick up a fat chick. Felt so bad after words.
How the fuck you do that.
>>7154730
>you remember it.
Or he was told about it by his friends, always a possibility just sayin'
Also careful trying to pick up fat chicks you might throw your back out
>>7154734
Picking people up is my party trick. I'm 5'4" bagina style and I can pick up my 6' and above friends with ease thanks to diddylifts, but I couldn't pick this chick up. Only knew it happened after coming to singing total eclipse of the heart on the train home. She's getting married January 1st so I'm sure that's good enough revenge for her.
Anyway, bread bowls are the kind of food you eat when you plan to have only one meal in a day. 4000 calorie meal right there. I'd rather drink beer.

A bread bowl is neither good not bad, but it is excessive, and living in 2015 America where excess has spilled over into commonplace it's probably better avoided.
Would not eat.
>>7154905
>Get bread bowl clam chowder at diner

>>7154905
Bacon spoon is probably a good idea. I just ruined my noodles with a stainless steel spoon. I can't eat this shit.
>>7155213
This looks sad. Do you have major depression? I recommend going on antidepressants like lexapro. It helps man. It gets better. This too shall pass.
>>7155218
I picked up the bowl and tried to drink the soup but the spoon became lodged in my mouth. I am going to go throw all my pyrex stuff in the trash, woe is the day my spoon falls again like a lamb to the slaughter in the bottom of a pyrex baking dish. This is an outrage.

had a bread bowl soup at panera bread yesterday and this >>7151082 was my complaint. i had soaked up all the soup with just the bread they gutted from it and couldn't eat anymore. the dull butter knife they gave me wasn't strong enough to cut through it, since it was really hard bread, so i couldn't eat the bowl. also for some reason they still served me a sizable piece of sour dough bread with it. i rate panera bread bowl soups unenjoyable/100.
>>7151118
Wtf is that. Chef was on meth.
