That was so cool. Chad is, of course,...Bread porn!<br /><br />That was so cool. Chad is, of course, at a level far, far higher than my own; there is so much I can learn from him. In fact, I took a lot of very specific things from this video. I like the idea of using water rather than flour during the shaping; never thought of that before, but it makes perfect sense. I also like the porridge bread idea. I've always wanted to do something like that, but never got around to it. It looks like he's using steel-cut oats, which I happen to have at home.... Lastly, I was wondering how he was going to get such high hydration loaves to hold together instead of just spreading out like blobs, but of course it was a Dutch oven! It just so happens that we recently procured a Dutch oven ourselves. I think I have my next bread project.<br /><br />I love watching videos like this because they really inspire me to bake more. I haven't baked a loaf of bread in a couple of weeks (not counting quick soda breads for breakfast on occasion), and this makes me want to get right back into it. I think I will experiment with a porridge loaf of my own on Saturday.Charleshttp://www.liminality.orgnoreply@blogger.com
