The two main types of yeast for making bread are wild yeast and cultured yeast. The type of yeast you use depends on the type of bread you plan on creating.

Baguettes are a quintessential part of French cuisine, known for their long shape, crusty exterior and chewy center. The mild flavor and delightful texture make it a stellar pair for herbed butter and creamy soups and can hold up sturdy ingredients, like sliced apples and brie, as a crostini.

Types of Ice Makers · Modular Ice Machine (IMH) · Undercounter Ice Machines · Countertop Ice Dispenser · 3 Types of Ice Machines ...

If you’ve browsed countertop ice makers at all, you’ve likely noticed that each product description claims a number of pounds of ice that the machine can make. Unless you’re trying to keep a body on ice or you’ve turned your spare bedroom into a speakeasy, you don’t need to worry about this number. That’s because all it tells you is what the machine could, theoretically, produce in 24 hours. And that kind of ice production would only be possible if you completely emptied the machine as soon as a batch of ice was ready and ensured the water reservoir was constantly filled. The chances you will ever bother with all that are basically zero, so it shouldn’t matter if you have a 24-pound ice machine or a 26-pound ice machine.

If you simply want the most compact countertop ice maker, choose this bullet ice maker from Newair, which is the smallest one I’ve tested. It has a footprint of 8.74” x 12.32” and it’s just over a foot tall.

If you’re anything like me, you’re going to be very excited to show off your new nugget ice maker after you get it all set up. My favorite use for “the good ice” is cocktails. And while pellet ice is not the same thing as crushed ice, it’s a perfectly acceptable—and I’d argue, preferable because it melts a little slower—alternative when making drinks. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Though that particular high-end model is the best nugget ice maker out there (learn more about why below), it’s certainly not the only option. And one thing is clear: After more than a year of living with one, I don’t think I could ever go back to regular-old freezer ice. That’s because a portable countertop ice maker produces ice much more quickly than freezing water in ice cube trays, and it can be used just about anywhere as long as you have access to an outlet, then tucked away when you don’t need it. Perhaps most importantly, with a countertop ice maker, you’ll never have to worry about your ice absorbing food smells from the fridge and freezer.

If you're an ice person then you may already know that the GE Profile Opal 2.0 is the best countertop ice maker money can buy. If you are not an ice person, you may be surprised by just how much money it takes to buy it. But this machine does one thing better than any other ice maker out there: It produces perfectly chewable, Sonic-style ice nuggets.

Irish soda bread is a tangy, cakey loaf that uses baking soda and buttermilk to create its signature taste and texture. Traditional recipes veer either sweet or savory, incorporating fruit zest and raisins or caraway seeds that complement the bite of the buttermilk. Because of its intriguing flavor, soda bread can be enjoyed simply with a pat of homemade butter.

The clear ice cubes you get in nice bars and restaurants typically come from giant, prohibitively expensive machines like Clinebells. Anything you have at home will be a compromise in quality compared to that, but you could consider this more diminutive clear ice maker from Newair. All clear ice machines work by building the ice cubes in layers to prevent air bubbles. Those bubbles are what make other ice cloudy, but also chompable. So clear ice, while beautiful, isn’t as fun (or safe) to chew as nugget ice or bullet ice. But if you’re more concerned with aesthetics than texture, I thought the ice clarity from Newair’s clear ice cube maker (formerly called the Luma Comfort) was quite good.

Many bread recipes fall under the yeasted category, as this type of bread uses yeast to achieve its rise. Yeasted breads are typically baked and can have a soft or crusty exterior. The KitchenAid® Bread Bowl with baking Lid pairs seamlessly with all KitchenAid® 4.5 and 5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixers* and allows you to mix, knead, proof and bake all in one bowl.

This hollow flatbread can be found in Middle Eastern, Greek and other Mediterranean cuisines. The hollow interior of this bread can be used to create a sandwich pocket ready to be stuffed with roasted gyro meat or crispy falafel.

This rustic and flavorful bread uses slowly fermented wild yeast to achieve a tangy flavor and slightly chewy texture. Sourdough can be used as a base for sandwiches or fresh bruschetta, or even as a flavorful stuffing for roasted meats like in this roasted chicken with sourdough stuffing.

This machine is easy to use, and will give you ice nuggets on demand—and if I hadn’t put it side-by-side against the Rolls Royce of countertop nugget ice makers, I probably would have been thrilled with my little ice pellets. So if you want nugget-style ice on demand and don’t want to spend $600 or more on a machine, you’ll probably be thrilled with it too. And hey, if you throw a lot of parties, you might even be into the optional blue LED light, which illuminates the ice drawer and gives a kind of nightclubby vibe.

This sweet, soft braided bread has a rich history in Jewish cuisine and is often served during the Jewish holy days. The standard challah recipe calls for only eggs, water, flour, yeast and salt, but additions of raisins, honey or seeds can uplift this bread into something truly decadent.

Middle of the road in terms of size, this one from Frigidaire allows you to check how much ice you have via a clear door on top of the machine. It’s easy to use and easy to clean; you simply remove a plug on the bottom of the machine to drain and rinse the water reservoir.

Give your rye bread an artisanal touch when you use the KitchenAid® stand mixer and the All Metal Grain Mill Attachment1 to mill your own flour at home.

Breads like sourdough use wild yeasts that are fermented to create a funky, tangy flavor in each loaf, while more mildly-flavored breads typically utilize store-bought cultured yeast.

The chunky, marinated tomatoes in bruschetta need a crusty bread to act as a sturdy foundation for the appetizer. Sliced baguettes or toasted sourdough can stand up to the moisture of the oil and balsamic vinegar without getting too soggy.

I mainly focused here on the two most popular types of countertop ice makers: nugget ice makers and bullet ice makers. Financially speaking, that translates to expensive ice makers and cheap ice makers—because the type of ice you get from a countertop ice maker is directly related to how much you’re willing to spend. And after thoroughly testing ice makers for Epicurious in 2023, I learned that while all bullet ice makers are created almost too equally (more on that below), the same cannot be said for nugget ice makers.

Bread recipes vary around the world, using different types of flour, grains, leavening agents, mixing techniques and cooking or baking methods. You can use your KitchenAid® stand mixer to experiment with a variety of bread recipes to pair with your favorite dishes.

English muffins are a breakfast staple thanks to the nooks and crannies that soak up the flavors of butter, jam and egg yolks. These small, round bread products are made with a fermented yeast sourdough starter, milk, sugar, butter, all-purpose flour and cornmeal and are cooked using a hot skillet. Serve homemade English muffins with fried green tomato eggs benedict to make your next brunch gathering burst with flavor.

Though French toast is traditionally made with any stale, thick bread, you can use a variety of loaves to create a French toast recipe all your own. However, brioche, baguettes and challah are great for soaking up the custard mixture French toast is known for.

This decadent comfort food borders on the line between bread and cake. Overripe bananas give this dense loaf its sweet and slightly caramelized flavor. You can easily customize banana bread to suit your taste, adding ingredients like ginger, blueberries, nuts or chocolate chips.

Rye is a flavorful type of bread that incorporates earthy and malty elements for a complex taste. This yeasted loaf uses two types of flour: rye grain and all-purpose flour. You can even customize this bread’s density by adding more or less rye grain flour, making a bread recipe all your own.

This is the biggest of the three bullet ice makers I tested, but if you’re looking for an affordable countertop ice maker with a little retro flair, you might prefer this retro bullet ice maker from Igloo.

This German bread combines elements from sourdough and rye bread to create a unique taste and texture. Traditional pumpernickel recipes use a sourdough starter in the dough, while modern American recipes use dry yeast. Pumpernickel gets its subtly sweet flavor and signature dark brown color from molasses, and the sweetness is balanced out with fennel and caraway seeds.

If you live alone or don’t mind refilling the water reservoir more regularly, you can save a little money and a few inches of counter space by getting the version of the Opal 2.0 without the extra water tank. I recently downsized, and since my counter space is now more limited and my household now has one adult instead of two, I use my Opal 2.0 without the side tank and I don’t feel like I’m refilling it any more often than I did with the side tank and two adults. The water reservoir is also much quicker and easier to refill than the side tank.

Ciabatta is an Italian white bread that gets its name, translating to slipper, from its similar shape. This bread is baked with higher hydration levels, creating the signature craters in its interior. Ciabatta makes a delicious foundation for sandwiches like pesto prosciutto breakfast ciabatta or barbecue pulled pork sliders.

Another traditional Indian bread, naan has a chewy texture and a unique teardrop shape. There are several variations of the traditional naan recipe that range from sweet to savory, but regardless of ingredients, naan can be identified by its slightly charred and oven-fresh taste due to the yeast in its recipe. Serve freshly baked naan with homemade vegetable curries, lentil stews or an herbaceous dip like raita.

You can use your KitchenAid® stand mixer with the Sifter + Scale Attachment1 to quickly and easily measure out dry ingredients for your bread recipes.

The Opal 2.0 is the only machine that makes true Sonic-style ice—sometimes called “pellet ice,” “pebble ice,” and mistakenly referred to as “crushed ice.” I personally like Helen Rosner’s moniker for it: “the good ice,” and since I got my own Opal ice maker, I often refer to myself as “Emily with the good ice.”

Quick bread is another name for chemically leavened bread and refers to the short time it takes to get the dough from the mixer and into the oven. Because of the use of chemical leavening agents, quick breads don’t require proofing or kneading before they make their way to the baking process.

Sprouted bread, also known as Ezekiel bread, uses sprouted whole grains in place of flour. This bread has a rich and dense texture, and the grains offer protein to make each slice hearty and filling. Serve this bread toasted with ricotta and jam or use it as the base for sandwiches packed with flavorful roasted vegetables.

Some breads, like socca, are naturally gluten-free, while other breads can be made gluten-free by making recipe adjustments that substitute ingredients like rye, wheat and barley with rice flour, chickpea flour or cornstarch.

Pillowy soft, buttery and lightly sweet, brioche is a yeasted bread that can be found in recipes ranging from decadent French toast to savory gourmet sandwiches like this veal french onion burger. The enriched dough made from butter, eggs and sugar makes this recipe taste like a cross between cake and bread, adding depth of flavor to every recipe you include it in.

Fluffy and light, potato bread uses mashed russet or yellow potatoes as one of its primary ingredients. This loaf is similar in taste and texture to white bread with an added richness from the butter and starchy potatoes. Potato bread can be made into a traditional loaf or as dinner rolls to serve with sheet pan bone-in pork roast, pot roast with cauliflower or lemon thyme roasted chicken.

One interesting thing I learned diving deep into the world of countertop ice makers: If you’re not buying a specialty ice machine that makes nuggets or clear ice cubes, the rest are all pretty much the same. They’re all compact bullet ice makers with the same ice-making capabilities, nearly identical body styles, and they all cost less than $200—and often less than $100.

Conversely, after testing three bullet ice makers, I realized they were eerily similar in terms of style, size, price, and performance. Further research revealed that all bullet ice makers in the $75 to $150 range had the same body style, produced the exact same ice bullets in two marginally different ice sizes, and some even had identical control panels. That’s why I stuck with ice makers from well-reviewed brands we know and kept away from some of the random brands that primarily pop up on Amazon like Aglucky, Euhomy, or the Silonn ice maker.

Socca is a gluten-free bread primarily popular in France as a street food or appetizer. This bread is made using chickpea flour and cooked on flaming grills. Serve it in slices to pair with your favorite dip recipe or follow the French tradition by serving it in a cone with freshly cracked salt and pepper.

This soft, mildly-flavored recipe makes the perfect sandwich bread. Its simple ingredients of active dry yeast, water, butter, milk, sugar, salt and bread flour really let the flavors of your sandwiches shine through. Slices of white bread can be toasted and cut into points, ready to top with homemade pimiento cheese spread, arugula spinach spread or slightly sweet apricot cheese spread to elevate snack time into something luxurious.

These are truly portable ice makers: small and light enough to pack in the car for a weekend at the lake and to tuck away in a closet until your next party. They also work quickly by freezing water around little metal prongs and can start producing bullet-shaped ice cubes within 10 minutes of setup.

In addition to assessing the standard unboxing, setup, and cleaning, of multiple nugget ice machines, I really focused on the chewability of the nugget ice they produced. After chomping lots of ice, I found that though the machines were similar in style, price, and function, the ice they produced varied in clarity and texture.

This Italian bread is a cross between a flatbread and a yeasted bread and can be easily identified by its dimpled texture. The recipe is similar to that of homemade pizza dough, but focaccia is typically fluffier as the recipe calls for more yeast.  Focaccia is delicious on its own, dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar, topped with cheese and herbs, stuffed with olives and capers or baked with fresh fruits or vegetables. Make quick work of toppings for focaccia with a KitchenAid® Food Processor Attachment1 or Fresh Prep Stand Mixer Attachment1.

There’s nothing quite like the taste and aroma of freshly-baked bread, and KitchenAid® stand mixers make it easy to knead, mix and shape dough to help you make your favorite loaves. Browse the entire collection of stand mixers from KitchenAid brand and explore attachments like the Bread Bowl with Baking Lid1 to start making artisanal bread in the comfort of your kitchen.

If your interest in nugget ice goes beyond chewing and chomping—or if you’re willing to compromise a bit on the texture and live with nuggets that aren’t quite as soft as what you’d get from the Opal—you can save hundreds of dollars on a similarly sleek machine from Newair. If you aren’t picky about ice shape, texture, or cube size, and just need lots of frozen water on demand, there are several nearly identical bullet ice maker machines from reliable brands that all cost around $100.

This dense, O-shaped loaf gets its signature texture through a unique boiling technique that occurs after proofing but before baking. Bagels proof for one hour at room temperature or 12+ hours in the refrigerator before they are shaped and boiled in a mixture of water and baking soda, malt syrup or honey. Bagels can be savory or sweet, with classic flavors like cinnamon and raisin or cheese and herbs being popular add-ins or toppings. Learn more about how to store bagels for maximum freshness.

This countertop nugget ice maker from Newair is capable of making a lot more ice in 24 hours than the Opal 2.0 (44 pounds versus 24), and costs half as much. It works really quickly; when I tested ice machines for our sister site Epicurious, this one dropped the first little ice nuggets in less than five minutes. They weren’t nearly as chewy as the ice that came from the Opal, but they were still satisfying to chomp and great for putting in drinks. Plus, because ice nuggets are so small, even crunchier ones like these will soften up very quickly in water or a cocktail.

This circular flatbread made with whole wheat flour, water, ghee and salt is a staple in Indian recipes. Once prepared, roti is typically stored in a hot pot to preserve the soft texture and can be served with dishes like chicken tikka masala, vegetarian sweet potato curry or this veggie noodle curry bowl.

Warm, comforting and hearty, bread is a staple food around the world. Different cultures have created unique bread recipes to pair with a variety of meals, and each bread has a unique texture, flavor and use. Use the following guide to learn more about the different types of bread and explore some frequently asked questions about this internationally loved food.

You can use pumpernickel to make sandwiches with corned beef or pastrami or serve it as toast with toppings like butter and jam or cream cheese, herbs and sliced cucumbers.

Australian damper uses simple ingredients like flour, salt, water and baking soda to create a mild-flavored canvas ready to soak up the flavors of soups, stews and roasts. Make this classic Aussie loaf to pair with local honey, spicy vegan stew or vegetarian three bean chili.

The Opal 2.0 has a built-in cleaning function that you have to activate with a button on the control panel, and the manual suggests doing that weekly. It’s…a lot considering cleaning the machine requires draining out all the water, making a diluted bleach solution, and running the cleaning cycle multiple times. Regular cleaning helps to prevent mineral buildup and dangerous bacteria from accumulating inside the machine, but I offer no comment on how strictly I follow the weekly schedule with my own Opal 2.0 and I haven’t had any issues. You can also get an add-on water filter to reduce chlorine and minerals in your ice if you’re not already using filtered water.

This ice maker doesn’t have an optional side tank, but it’s easy to fill the water reservoir from the front of the machine (just lift the ice drawer out) and cleaning is easy too. One selling point of this machine is its self cleaning function, which is simpler than the Opal’s fussy cleaning cycle.

This simple bread recipe is made with only flour and water. Matzo, or matzah, bakes into what looks like one large cracker because of its unleavened recipe. The mild flavor makes it easy to pair with sweet and savory toppings, from butter and homemade jam to creamy tuna salad.

Pratha is a flaky, buttery layered bread in Southeast Asian cuisine. The flaky layers are created using a technique called laminating that alternates layers of fat and dough. You can serve paratha with savory and spicy dishes like Baingan Bharta or sweet treats like hot cocoa, frozen hot chocolate or creamy coconut chai.

Flatbread is a category of bread that includes tortillas, roti, naan, pita and more. These recipes create a thin, chewy and sometimes crunchy bread that can be used as a wrap, pizza crust or a standalone side dish. Read on below to discover different flatbread recipes.

Often found in classic southern recipes, cornbread is a soft and tender bread that is typically baked in a greased cast iron skillet. While delicious on its own, you can add more flavors to this crumbly confection by experimenting with ingredient combinations like jalapeno and honey, custom cheese blends or homemade jams.

There are countless bread recipes that stem from cultures around the world, each with an individual flavor, texture and preparation. Bread predates modern society, and its rich history has taken the humble loaf into hundreds of different directions.

Nugget ice, in particular, is so much more versatile than the kind of frozen-solid cubes you get from most ice molds, and it’s far superior to whatever shape your fridge’s built-in ice maker pops out when it feels like actually doing its job. In addition to being satisfyingly chewable, nugget ice instantly makes cocktails, fizzy drinks, and even plain water feel more summery and refreshing. I find it’s also the best option when you need to pack something on ice since it’s so malleable it can cover nearly all the surface area of even oddly-shaped items.

Multigrain bread doesn’t have one particular recipe as it is instead a category of any bread that uses more than one type of grain. This nutrient-dense bread is made from grains and seeds, flour, yeast, salt, sugar and water and can be customized to your taste. Use this bread as a hearty base for avocado grilled cheese or pear ricotta toast.

There are two versions of the Opal 2.0, and if your household goes through a lot of ice—or if you throw a lot of parties—it’s worth it to spring for the model with the side tank so you don’t have to constantly refill the water reservoir. The side tank triples the amount of water the machine can hold, but reattaching it after refilling it does take some getting used to if you want to avoid spills. This machine can also get quite loud when it’s actively making ice (it takes about 90 minutes to make a bucketful), though I’ve found that the motor runs less often when it has more open space surrounding it, so nobody shove baby all the way into a corner, okay? You can also use the machine’s Wi-Fi connectivity and companion app to schedule a batch of ice while you’re out of the house if you’re the smart home type.

Originating from Mexican cuisine, tortillas are thin, round bread made from masa or flour. You can make homemade tortilla dough in your stand mixer to add an artisanal touch to flavorful recipes like carne asada tacos, al pastor tortillas or steaming chicken fajitas.

The ice that comes from this machine isn’t frozen solid like the ice you make when you put an ice cube tray full of water in the freezer. Nugget ice is actually made of compressed ice flakes, which is why it’s famously so soft and so satisfying to chew.

While bullet ice, which is generally a bit bigger, less symmetrical, and somewhat harder than nugget ice, has never gotten the online adulation of the latter, it is pretty soft and chewy compared to what you get from an ice cube tray because it’s made quickly and not frozen solid. So if you just want to make sure you always have enough ice for cooling your drinks, and you’re not picky about what type of ice it is, these machines are all so similar that you really can just choose one based on color or finish. That said, they’re all slightly different sizes (all noted below) so if you’re super short on space, go for the Newair, which is the smallest of the three recommended below.

If your childhood summers didn't include Sonic limeades (or in my case, cherry limeades) you might not understand all the hype for pellet ice, but it's never too late to hop on the bandwagon. Test kitchen editor Kendra Vaculin told me it took a penicillin cocktail at a Brooklyn bar to turn her into a believer. "There's something about it feeling like a snow cone, but adult, with ice you can crunch between your molars," she says. "Plus, it keeps the drink so, so cold—which for me is necessary with whiskey."

Bread’s popularity changes depending on where you are in the world. However, white bread, baguettes, whole grain bread, ciabatta and focaccia are some of the most commonly used breads around the globe.

If you want to save even more money, you can get a smaller (slightly less good looking, in my opinion) version of Newair’s nugget ice maker. This machine opens on top and resembles cheaper bullet ice makers, but it still produces Newair’s crunchy pellety nugget ice.
