I really like your style of presentation. You're so natural without any preset scenarios or rehearsals.

I really admire your routine. Sourdough seems slacker than a normal bread dough. You have two mixers: a left hand and a right hand. he he.

That’s how I mix my dough as well. I just started a cottage bakery here on the Oregon coast as well. So fun to see another bakers journey 😁

Hi Lilly, I'm still learning every day also, I tried keeping my 10 loaves a day in baskets in fridge overnight, but found that when I tip them out in the morning they are nicely risen, but they deflate a lot and very quick, and I find it quite hard to get a clean score on the surface, so now I get up earlier, take the risen dough out of the fridge , shape, leave to rise for an hour then bake, but with winter approaching would prefer the first method... Shaping at night in fridge and out in the morning, straight into the oven, can you offer any advice?

Thank you so much for your videos, Lily. I'm thinking about starting a cottage bakery, and this is helping me work out the daily functioning details. Do you have a commercial oven? How do you get all the loaves baked in time?

Greetings from Boston! I’ve tried many starters as well and frankly, rye is always the most reliable. The nice thing is that if you use a recipe that calls for a LOT of starter, the rye adds a uniqueness to the final product that’s frequently missing from basic white sourdough. It makes THE best grilling bread ever.

Hi Lily, great video's. What hydration do you use for your plain sourdough loaves. I find the preshaping and shaping difficult even though my bulk process works really well, I do 5 hours of bulk S+F at 30 minute intervals. I am currently using a 70% hydration and find that the dough sticks to the work surface once I have done preshaping. I use semolina rather than brown rice flour during shaping process. My loaves don't get the oven spring I expect given the great bulk process. I would be grateful if you could point me to some links that I could look at that you have found useful.

@LilysLoaf

2 жыл бұрын

hey Sam thank you! My white sourdough is 70% hydration plus a little extra when I add my salt in (I always mix the salt with some water to dissolve before adding to the mix). Try 230c for your oven temperature - it's quite a good temp for good oven spring!

hello! hmm it could be a number of things... I normally bulk ferment for 3-4 hours max before shaping and putting into the fridge for a long cold ferment.

Great video. A quick question. I have noticed that on your blackboard it says you use 320 g starter to 4800g flour. That's only about 6% starter to flour. I wonder how 3 hours of bulk is enough for such a small ratio of starter to flour. I normally use 20% starter to flour, and the bulk fermentation usually takes anywhere between 4 and 6 hours, but never less than 4 hours. How is it possible to have a 3 hours bulk fermentation with only 6% starter?

She said she usually looks for a significant volume increase and bubbles at the end of the bulk fermentation. With only 6% of starter there is no way there can be a significant volume increase and bubbles after only 3 hours. That's why it confuses me. It would be great if we could get a response from her.

@@tothpianopeter ..another thought, many professional bakers, European and American, add a pinch or two of dry yeast as a fail-safe back-up to possible wild yeast failures. They do this to ensure successful bakes that their livings depends on. If so, this also shortens the proof time. Also, they don't advertise it because the sourdough purists will cry 'foul', and in many places in Europe, they have strict definitions in what can be called 'sourdough' and what can't. Btw, I adopted this practice a few years ago for a different reason - I love the taste of dry yeast from many years of making yeast rolls, so sometimes I add just a few pinches to get that taste along with the sourdough taste. It creates a nice, more complex taste.

I want to see you bread crumb. Your loaves are so big and round and stay that way.

Always autolyse without salt. 🙇🏼‍♂️ Salt is hydrophilic and will mess with absorption capability of the flour during autolysation(which means “self-absorption”).

Doesn't fermentation start when the Levain is added? In your case it starts when you first mix the starter in the water - not when you add salt 1 hour later.
