  1. Overnight happy sourdough. A long slow rise, ready for me just as I get up. G'morning!

  2. A dozen rolls.

    110g dough balls, 100g (3½ oz) after baking, burger bun size but not so round, being constrained by the tray.

  7. Baked up the bread batch. A big one, about 3.2kg of dough. Excellent oven spring on this batch and that's five loaves cooking now.

  8. I experimented with a bread "recycling" batch a cpl of wks back and it was v good.

    I'm intrigued by "rescue" ideas for failed/failing bread batches as it's something you often see from early/occasional bread makers.

    I have remedies to offer for a batch that hasn't risen properly, but I thought of an approach to use for loaves that are already baked too.

    I grind the loaf up and add it to fresh flour. It's a perfectly good ingredient for a fresh batch made with proper leavening.

  9. That batch of bread–just two loaves for this experiment–have just baked up and are cooling.

    Will be interesting to sample. Features the addition of other bread ground up and incorporated into the batch.

    Hmm, what if part of this batch went into another batch later? A never ending bread cycle.

  10. My current bread batch is an interesting experiment. I had a loaf of somewhat unsuccessful #sourdough – very flavourful, but overly dense.

    I was thinking about bread with nuts incorporated, and thought it'd be interesting to try a loaf with bits of old bread in it instead. It's a thing that some traditions do.

    So half a loaf of sourdough was cut coarsely and soaked, then whizzed in food processor and added to flour. Will see how it bakes up.

  11. Sourdough Focaccia

    Well, sort of. At 80% hydration and after a long autolyse the dough was too slack to keep dimples; poke it and it just flowed back.

  12. I’ve also been making Paul Hollywood’s cherry and chocolate bread today, now waiting for it to be cool enough to cut! #breadmaking #cottagecore #chocolatebread

  13. Making bread. Not my most energetic starter ramp-up (aka levain). I've been sloppy at feedings, distracted by other things.

    So cheating to use a bit of commercial yeast along side, so I don't waste all flour that went into that erratically-fed levain.

    A key part of #breadmaking, I've learned, is the experience to recover from hiccups along the way. I can rescue the most botched process and still get an enjoyable result. Ross's Bread Repair – I think I'll hang a sign out.

  14. Just after 11pm here and my bread batch for the day has just completed. Left it a little late getting started, but it's come out alright.

    Means fresh sourdough tomorrow for breakfast anyway.

  15. Baking this morning. Two loaves of bread and dozens of ANZAC biscuits.

  16. I don't often bake bread in a tin, mostly because those I have are crap and stick badly, but this made good sandwich bread.

  17. Baked in a preheated oven at 230°C (445°F) covered with ice cubes in the pan to produce steam for 35 minutes then uncovered for a further 15 minutes to colour.

    520g of dough went into the oven and a 452g loaf came out so it lost 68g of water in the baking.

    #food #cooking #baking #bread #yeast #BreadMaking

  18. Small (450g / 1lb) yeast loaf

    600g flour and 70% hydration. Kneaded. The water was very cold so bulk fermentation on the counter at 18°C (64°F) took 3 hours to double in size.

    Turned out 1,040g of dough what was halved. Half went into the fridge for tomorrow and half was shaped for proving in a banneton on top of the fridge where the ambient is a little warmer, 21°C (70°F) for 1½ hours.

  19. Challah bread in process. Just formed up the enriched dough into the requisite braids. Waiting for a rise then bake.

  24. @maudenificent Oh yes! I should have mentioned that I took its picture the day I brought it home from Salvos about 6 months ago. All it needed was 2 little replacement paddles, which had been lost, and some love.
    And we have already tried about a baker's dozen of the the recipes in the owner's manual which you will also have. I am hooked.

  25. CW: Food

    Had a busy day making some low Fodmap, gluten free baked goods.

    Bread came out much better this time. Once its cooled down, I'll give it a try.

  30. Horrible weather today so I've been baking. Two loaves of bread just came out of the oven and the apple pie has just gone in.
    The apples from our tree are not keeping very well so we need to use them all up.

  31. More pizza happened... various toppings including a sort of quattro formaggi with blue cheese, a red cheddar, and our own mozzarella, on a scatter of gruyère. A couple of others are "leftover bbq" pizzas, and another is a sort of spicy take on the margherita.

    The dough ideally needed to be a bit higher hydration, but it worked OK. I'm far from any sort of expert pizza maker!

  32. first pizza...

    Sorta a fancy margherita... our own fresh made mozzarella and pizza dough made with the cheese whey. With plenty of #allotment basil, and the last of last year's passata — with added fresh garden herbs. Not our own fresh tomato yet alas, and also some red onion and gruyère from shops.

    Should have popped fresh basil on top.

  33. Bread has risen!

    Both made with the cheese whey from above.

    The poppyseeded loaf is 50% emmer flour and 50% strong white, both from Doves Farm. Hydration about 70%. Squeeze of honey.

    The portioned dough is 100% strong white from Holkham, and about 65% hydration... these are for pizza.

  34. It doesn't end there though, even after making two kinds of cheese the approx 2.5 litres of lightly salty whey left over is a rich and tasty liquid. So, into a couple of batches of bread dough with some of it... and the rest, about 1.5l, goes into the freezer as I reckon it will be an excellent base for a soup, something like a classic cauliflower soup, or maybe a leak & potato. Zero waste.

    The milk used is raw milk from what we call the #autocow (a vending machine): theparlourbinham.co.uk/little-

    But I'm no raw milk evangelist, I do like the stuff, especially for cheesemaking... but I don't think it'll give anyone superpowers, and it can certainly be unsafe. You can make various cheese with pasteurised milk too.

  35. I've been #baking by hand for months and it is so easy and so good. A lot of people gave up on it after the #pandemic but why? You can basically 3D print #food with this. There is no downside to baking your own food. Just go and do it. #bakingmastodon #bread #breadmaking

  38. well, this is going to be an interesting first, a bread I’ve not made before - linseed and date. Will this combination work?

    A couple or three weeks ago someone posted on here about problems they were having with bread making. A retired baker replied with an offer to help as he enjoyed problem solving. Anyway, we are now in the "we have a problem" situation, but I cannot recall the name of the person who offered to help, to see if they can help us.
    If anyone knows, please tell me !!
    Thanks.
