All these bakers are like magicians to me. I go anywhere near that dough and my hands are glued together.

What kind of black magic is this? When my dough touches anything it is literally glue. Inspiring stuff...maybe one day

No black magic. I was like you not long ago so don’t worry, and if you need help just ask me and I’ll try to help you 😉 I have been studying deeply how gluten works and how it is affected. Once you understand that everything will come together. Anyway just to give you a bit of magic… if your dough sticks means that gluten is not formed properly, once gluten is well developed it will stay together and the magic will happen 😊no black magic though but “white” the white magic art of flour 😊

Also if dough sticks let it rest 15/20 min, rest helps gluten to develop

Additionally it is very important how much protein your dough contains if it is low then impossible to have a high hydrated dough with it

Hey! So when you stretch and fold it on the counter you didn’t flour it, how does it not stick?

What's the amount of oil you use to create this dough?

I wish I had seen this before my last batch of dough.....it was far too wet and I had difficulty with it but you make it look very easy ! I continued and the bread was quite good with a good crumb but the loaves were a bit flat in shape !! Thank you for the video.

@@TheSourdoughScience Thank you for the reply and I love your Italian accent - very popular here in UK !

Do you autolypse the dough first, and how you do it? do you add the salt and levain at once or just add salt and knead and then incorporate the levain and knead then S&F and repeat? or do you mix all ingredients then rest, S&F, rest, S&F and repeat to form that gluten strength? also with 11.9 protein content, wouldn't it be weaker for this hydration level??

@TheSourdoughScience

Ай бұрын

Hi Michael, Sorry for late reply… In this case, I skipped the autolyse step and instead mixed all the ingredients together, allowing them to rest for an hour without extensive kneading, similar to autolyse but with all ingredients. However autolyse helps with kneading. Then, I performed stretch and folds a few times every 30 minutes until the dough became smooth and strong. The protein content doesn’t matter much; you can achieve the same dough with a lower protein content if you know how to handle the dough. The main difference with lower protein is the duration the dough can hold its shape before collapsing but anyway 12g is a good amount for a 24/36 hour fermentation Hope this helps 😉 Let me know I can help you further

Excellent!

@@TheSourdoughScience, i do well with hydration of 70-75, but more than that would leave me with runny mess on my hands. Yours looks like close to 100% to me. It looks silky and pretty! What flour do you use?

@TheSourdoughScience

Dilyara Marsh this dough is 80% hydro, the secret is to let it rest, gluten develop by itself in high hydration, try to mix the dough then let it rest 1 hour then 3 stretch and fold at intervals of 30min, if still wet rest in fridge overnight. I’m in Australia, I use Kialla Organic Typo 1 flour, is a 12% protein. Let me know if this was helpful 😉

How much protein is in that flour?

In this case I was using 11.9g of protein typo 1 also known as high extraction flour

Nice skill! I've certainly benefitted from using wet hands, but my dough still stays sticky and flops when I come to shaping it :-(

@TheSourdoughScience

As I say in the video, let it rest, if sticks let it rest 15/25 minutes and come back, give a fold and rest again, repeat even 6 times if needed. Also check the protein in the flour, you want to use 12 to 14 g of protein per 100g of flour, the more protein the more fold needs to build the gluten. Also hydration affect the result, start at 70% amd the more you learn the more you increase hydration. Hope this help feel free to reach out for more help 😉

Yes correct is semolina flour, is a mix of 50/50 of 2 different size of semolina, I find semolina to give a more crusty texture to my pizza, although rice flour would be okay too, plain flour can burn in a 400 degrees oven and give a bitter taste. Hope this help

How many slap and folds each time?

@agave20091

2 жыл бұрын

Seriously, how many?

@TheSourdoughScience

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Maureen, How many slap&folds can vary a lot depending on flour used, hydration and gluten development. General rule of thumb I would say between 5 and 10 but still as I said it can vary. Once you go over though you will notice the gluten structure will tear and rip a part, if you reach that stage means you went too far and you need to rest the dough for at least 40 minutes before doing another slap ( during resting the gluten will relax and rebuild) With practice you will get to know when to stop, it al just matter of trying multiple times. Hope this will help 😊
