What about showing the crumb. Are these loaves just to be used for stage props?

Great instructions and explanations without corny jokes and cheesy music... subscribed!

I made this last night. I halved all the amounts to make 2 loaves, but forgot to half the yeast (1 g vs .5 g) in the poolish. it still came out great! I can't wait to do it right next time. My oven makes the crust a little darker than I like. Almost burned in a couple of places. I'm going to put foil over them about half way through the baking process next time. My family is from NY and they all loved this bread. It's their new favorite. Thanks for sharing this great recipe.

Much of this was over my head. PERFECT! I've enjoyed making bread in the past and was looking to up my game so to speak and your knowledge and enthusiasm tells me that I can learn a lot here.

What did you use for starter? I don’t understand what he means

@willphelps6715

@@Idk-bs6in Starter is a term used for a naturally formed flour/water/yeast mixture. It uses "natural" yeast, found in the air and on the skins of fruits, like grapes, rather than commercial yeast, like "fresh yeast blocks" or "instant dry yeast". Search KZread for "Making Sourdough Starter" for more information about it and how to make and care for it. It takes about 10 days to get the thing going, so you're not going to make bread tomorrow. I have given away small amounts of my starter to help others kick start their own batch. Ask around on social media if there's anyone near you that can give you a little.

I learned so much and your presentation is spot on. Thank you.

I just found your channel, and want to say as a home bread baker, this channel is great. Your presentation, content and calming voice to watch this. I bake yeast breads or sourdough. I never worked with a poolish, however, I have added a pinch of yeast to my sourdough mix, and found I get a better loaf. I know it as a hybrid loaf.

Cut the recipe in half but followed to the T. Was absolutely outstanding. Thanks.

I must say this is One of the best tutorials 👍👍👍😍

Going to try this...as this is a new skill im trying to master! Looks delicious 😋! Thanks for sharing!

awesome video. explained to me things I been wondering for years about dough development

I made this bread and its beautiful. Thank you

I used 00 flour and a 00 starter (70% hydration, adjusted water in the final mix). I baked this formula two times. First time a bit dry. I guess that was the flour. Second time with just a little splash extra was perfect. Thank you so much.

Been a long time since I’ve watched such a talented baker. Thanks!

The key to success of this recipe and others getting a group of flour's that you like and stick with them and learn how they mix and bake. All Flour hydrates at different levels. I switched flour recently and it takes a whole lot more water to make this bread correctly. I just started a batch and had to add at least 50 grams more water after I had done the first mix to the dough the dough was that stiff. I am letting the 2nd bulk ferment longer now just to try to save what I made. The bread may not come out as well as I had hoped but it is better than throwing the whole batch in to the trash. I like your vids, now if I could find more people to give out the amount of bread I have been baking, I would be golden.

That is absolutely beautiful bread, takes me back to my childhood in Brooklyn where you can visit the local bakeries at midnight and get the loaves fresh from the oven.

I just made this for pizza crusts. I've always used a ferment but never minded the percentages as closely as this recipe.

Straight from the mixer into the bulk for 2 hours then balled up and kept cool for 2 more hours. Then on the counter until 67-70f. Cooked on stone at 500f. In my past, I have made thousands of pizzas using the PF, or "old dough" method as a one-man wood fired operation but never had a pizza crust come out like this. This recipe is perfect for pizza and stretched beautifully! Next time I'm going to use 90/10 poolish/levain rather than 80/20. Not because it wasn't awesome but I want to try just a touch of sour. (side note: I added malt because of the relatively short proof of

Awesome video going to def try this, but brah left me hanging when the bread wasn't cut open

Where did you purchase the inserts for your oven? Is this a material I can purchase and cut to size? Great video. Easy to follow.

This is basically what Raymond Calvel called "levain de pâte", or bread made with two pre-ferments. The Poolish gives the natural levain a bit of help. It decreases production time and produces a loaf that is somewhat lighter in texture than a pure sourdough, while still more flavorful that a direct method bread. I have made this recipe and find that it's more trouble than it is worth. Like my usual sourdough, it takes two days, but requires the creation of two preferments and the resulting flavor is not as good as sourdough.

Thank you for a very nice and instructional video. This bread is now baking as I write. I have, however, one small question: you mention at 5:00 to 5:27 the reasons the KitchenAid foodprocessor is not your favorite. Today I was warming up to buy one of these, so I thought I would ask: which foodprocessor do you like or maybe even recommend for mixing dough?

You are correct

like the last shaping method , is it possible to see it closer or from a different angle as we cannot see the other side of the dough while you are shaping it.Thanks

Just a point in clarification, given the poolish & levain quantities - 1300 + 210 and stated water (580g) yields 650+105+580 + 45 oil = 1380g hydration(given the 100 % hydration of the preferments). The stated dough weight is 3500g and subtracting out approximately 42 g salt gives a flour weight of 3500 - 1380 - 42 = 2078g or a hydration level of 66.4% . . . or am I missing something . . . The dough certainly looks more slack that that . . . Beautiful batard BTW

Why is the recipe not listed under the video???

I am a big fan of your videos, and also a subscriber of your Online Artisan Baking Academy, I bought the course of Building a Bread Baking Foundation which I have been really enjoying. I would like to make this bread, but as many others, including you, have pointed out, the formula has been transcribed incorrectly. Not only does the hydration not add up, but the percentage of the olive oil also seems off, as it came out not even 2% according to my calculations, while in the video it says 3%. I wonder if you would be so kind and publish the corrected formula.

In artisan breads, especially larger loaves, It is best to not use a fan, as the heat is mostly surface related, and the crust may form and darken before the interior is properly baked.

Hi there and thanks for the super video. Question, you mentioned that the hydration was 73%, could this be an error. When you the math, it comes out around 61% with toatal four being 2140 grams and total water being 1305 grams.

Any blowouts are generally a result of under proofing. Don't go strictly by time, as conditions will be different from kitchen to kitchen. Check proof by touching the dough gently with a finger. The dough will allow you to press into the loaf, slowly spring back, leaving a slight indentation where you pressed. Good luck!

I can't believe a 25 minute video on bread making and only showing what the outside looks like. The inside is ultimately important.

how come he did not cut the loaf so we can see inside.

When doing the math to you add the prefermemts flour and water values normally? Like if its 200/200 do you just add 200 to the total flour and 200 to the total water? Or is there a better method for getting the hydration with preferments involved

As always thank you so much for your videos. I tried this last week, but of course scaled back to smaller amount.

My 2 questions if I may are: 1. with final hydration around 70%, do you include the water and flour in the white levain in addition to those in the poolish in your calculations for final hydration percentage? 2. with white levain does it need more time than traditional spelt levain to ferment, should I prepare it prior to the poolish to get good fermentation? the poolish was way more fermented and had grown substantially more than the levain.
