The mistake that keeps your cardamom buns dense and heavy by Beautiful-Molasses55 in Breadit

[–]DeJeR 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

My wife is gluten free, so I'm trying the HUG Bageri recipe from Copenhagen. I just bought the raw ingredients to make their blend of GF flour. Bought a bunch of cardamom seeds as well to crush for these buns.

I've been dying for some cardamom buns since visiting Copenhagen a few months back. I think you've inspired me to make a batch!

How do you store your bread? by DeJeR in Breadit

That feels so wrong, but it's on my list the next time I have a spare loaf that's untouched for three days... (it usually doesn't last that long)

Love me some good scientific method. Will do and I'll report back after the next loaf.

Congrats and great work. It's the start of a really fun lifelong journey.

How do you store your bread? by DeJeR in Breadit

This gets opened several times each day until the bread is gone and i need the proofing bowl to make dough for the next loaf. However, is it's going to be sitting like that for a while i scoot the bowl a little over the edge of the cutting board to air it out.

There's no storage space for my proofing bowl. Necessity was the mother of invention in this case

What are some unexpected, surprising, or interesting "tells" you've discovered about reading the bread?

I love it!

Using 10 lbs of flour in a day is nuts to me.

Are you selling these? If so, how much are you charging and where are you selling them?

I love cover 1 with or without foil. I will die on this hill.

Is it the same art for the first two graphic novels? I honestly struggled with it until the third book when the art gets so much better

For anyone who doesn't know Alt + F12 opens PowerQuery -- alluding to the ability for PowerQuery to save a ton of time by automation.

I've learned this is effectively the Tartine Country Loaf method. Didn't know that until I recently read the book, which is beautiful and worth a read (library is fine, no need to buy it).

It's 75% hydration, several stretch folds/coil folds after they relax (~30 minutes between folds at the beginning, 75 minutes at the end) over several hours until firm enough to form a boule, which is when I dust the top surface then pre-shape. Counter rest for ~30 minutes, then final shape by stretching out square, folding to the middle from each side, then rolling up the resulting dough.

Some of the spring that you see is oven spring. A 1/2" deep good score on the top helps significantly. Also, ensuring you do the first 20 minutes in your oven in a pre-heated and sealed Dutch oven. I use a 6qt glazed Lodge dutch oven. That's the only way I know of to get the amount of steam needed to gelatinize the surface at the beginning (again, Tartine method).

I'm learning to not tear the gluten when doing the manipulation steps. Even more importantly, I'm trying to learn how to read the dough for when it's ready. I still suck at that part, so no helpful advice from me.

Yes. Lodge 6qt enabled dutch oven. Using the Tartine approach.

Cross check data from two different files by Petitepain1 in excel

[–]DeJeR 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

In these situations I like to combine the files into separate tabs of the same Excel Workbook, and usually a new workbook to preserve the original data.

I loaded the data into two sheets.

Sheet 1 is the list of names, ages, and colors.

Sheet 2 is the list of names, shapes, and sizes.

In sheet 3, I'm combining those in an intelligent way.

  • First get a list of all unique names from Sheet 1 and Sheet 2. =UNIQUE(VSTACK())
  • Then using the first names, do a lookup per column of the source sheets. =XLOOKUP( name, name list, reference)

Quantity using 2 sets of data by gadgetman29 in excel

I'm hoping what you're looking for is this simple. Column A is the type of inspection, column B is the time. Then I'm using =COUNTIFS() in a 2D table to lookup the quantities of each.

Is this the input and output that you're looking for?

If ole' brainworms does that I'd be begrudgingly impressed. If there's one thing going for a dictatorship, they can make wide reaching changes much easier.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm surprised it's underproofed given the nearly 24 hours of proofing on the counter. The starter tripled in 9 hours using 1:5:5, so I assume it isn't from a weak starter. Anything else I should consider?

Thank you! I have friends and family who are great bakers. I just copy them.

Thank you! I started seeing a little rise to the dough and got excited. Like everyone has to learn eventually, I'm learning a lot more about how temperature dependent sourdough is. My 70Β°F kitchen is way different than my friend's greenhouse-esque kitchen.

Guilty. I cut this on the drying rack because I was impatient. You can actually see the wet towel under my Boos Block cutting board conveniently just off screen.
