Most people did not have ovens in their houses so they took their bread to a baker to have it baked. Thus why so many bakeries were needed. People stamped their emblem on it so they were sure to get their bread back.

The production quality is so good on this series

Oh my God, I actually know why they had so many bakeries! Most people didn't have ovens. Either their apartments were too small, too high up or too rickety. Ovens were shared, sometimes on the first floor of the apartment building, if they were lucky. Otherwise they made the dough and then took it to the bakery and paid them a fee to bake it. Obviously, some folks just bought bread and didn't make their own dough. Also there were grain rations to citizens but that's a whole other story... Anyway, bakeries were busy back in those days. p.s. I'd love to see the earliest chicken pot pie.

Awww she misses Tiny Whisk!

Me: "Wait, so are you a chef chef? Or a pastry chef? Or a bread baker? Or a culinary anthropologist? Or just a really smart and fun KZread cooking personality?" Sohla: "Yes."

As a request, could you make pemican and acorn "Mush" that doesn't taste as bitter as the stuff we made in third grade. Might as well do Fry Bread too! Edit: I suppose that those are all from different locations and timelines. Fry bread being more modern, acorns from the West and pemican from the plains. All are worth exploring though.

Native American fry bread isn't traditional native food. It was created by native cooks using government surplus flour and shortening that was given to reservations. It's history all right but not necessarily the history you thought it was. It's good, but it's also very unhealthy if eaten on a regular basis.

the edit of her tasting and coming up with words to say is what i look forward to every episode 🤗

Sohla is a gem as always, but definitely gotta give props to the whole team behind these videos. They give a lot of room for Sohla to just be Sohla while adding their own little flairs. The editing is fun and lighthearted, but not overly. The shots also just feel a smidge longer than you see in a lot of other modern cooking videos, which I like. I think it fits the "ancient" tone as well as serves Sohla well.

I love Sohla and love that she's doing this series! My kids are learning about Rome and Pompeii and this was such a fun addition to their learning.

Sohla is so charismatiiic , everytime I watch one of her vids I feel like we're just hanging out as friends lmao

As an archaeology/anthropology student who has a deep love of food culture, I am loving the fairly recent uptick of interest in food history channels from the past couple years! Food is one of the most basic requirements for life, yet throughout history we take it and make it fun and colourful and yummy and extravangant and we imbibe it with meaning and significance, we find joy and enjoyment in it and I think that's so cute of us.

Best new series! Love Sohla!

He's neither the first nor last to do it. He appeared during covid at the right time. Townsends have been around for over a decade with a focus on colonial american food. And there's been other smaller channels that never made it big that dabbled in it. I thought about starting one almost 20 years ago and thought no one would be interested in my weird, quirky interest in historical food, particularly middle ages and how that carried over to the colonies, and ancient rome. At the time, it probably was true. But with everyone stuck inside during lockdowns and baking bread, lol, Max got in at the perfect time. He also has a great personality.

My birthday is coming up, and all I wish for is a crossover episode with Sohla and June from delish!

How about cooking food underground with embers? We learned that it was done in Sweden way back in the day ☺️
