‘The Great British Baking Show’ Season 10 Scores Bread
It's time for the third and final of the baking basics as The Great British Baking Show brings us Bread Week.
It’s Bread Week in the tent on The Great British Baking Show, with all the under-proofed, overworked tragedies that come with it. Bread Week is also the unofficial Paul Hollywood Week, as somehow the manly work of baking bread has always been his domain. It’s also usually a good sign of who the emerging front runners are. It is rare for someone to land Star Baker on Bread Week and not be in the finals, happening only three times in the show’s ten-year run. So far it’s only happened in Season 2 (which never aired in America), Season 7 (for us, Season 4) and Season 8 (Netflix’s Collection 5).
Will this week’s Star Baker follow this trend? There’s no way to binge ahead and find out. Instead, we’ll have to settle for this week’s Signature Bake: “Tear & Share Loaves,” or “Pull-Aparts.” Here in America, it’s usually called Monkey Bread, and sometimes Bubble Loaf. Cinnamon buns are also technically pull-aparts, as are Star Loaves, and multiple contestants make both.
