Thin progress

Clearly much more equal than the last effort. But, maybe, a bit too long (and too thin). Proof will be in the eating.

Pour changer

Fresh brioche

Fresh brioche on the rack, maybe a bit blonde

Need to up the shaping game

Made baguette from this starter

First fermented on the counter (slightly too long due to a cycle trip), than over night in the fridge.

The baguette started out the same weight, shaping is ok, but inconsistent. More work to do.

three fairly crusty baguette on a cooling rack, good rise, VERY different sizes, though they started the same weight

Starter doing it’s thing

I use our joghurt maker to ferment the starter (50 g each: old dough, flour, water) at 24 C for 8 h. Works a treat.

through the clear lid of the joghurt maker we see the starter in its plastic container

Quite happy

2 rolls and a baguette, nicely risen. The cut on one roll was too shallow, the others are nicely dramatic.

a baguette with dramatic ears lies diagonally on a cooling rack, a bread roll on either side.

Yesterdays rolls

4 traditional German rolls sitting on the cooling rack

Got tired of round rolls, so made these instead

Much better

Last weeks rolls made me wonder, but my dough still got it. Yeah.

Should have reduced the temperature a bit earlier, so the ears are slightly dark.

4 freshly baked crusty rolls with nice ears, slightly to dark
