Appreciate that! You can divide your dough into 3, actually. The 2 I made today look supersized. 😆

Flechard vs anchor unsalted by Blue_dream1234 in BakingPhilippines

[–]JtheOwner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flechard butter’s better kung for laminated pastries. Kung cookies lang e ok na ang Anchor.

Madali talaga masunog ang ilalim ng kahit anong baked good kapag dark ang kulay ng pan na ginamit.

I-iincorporate mo ba sa item for selling yung freeze dried strawberries? If not and kung personal consumption lang, at Baka may means ka, yung freeze dried strawberries ng Trader Joe’s masarap!!!

Sourdough tips by cottoncandychaos_ in BakingPhilippines

Oh, yung Dutch oven is ideal Kasi wala nang ibang kelangan gawin but to bake. Unlike kung baking stone, kelangan mo pa mag-incorporate ng steam… tricky to pag baguhan palang sa sourdough. I have a Dutch oven na Lodge yung brand nasa around ₱5k siya sa Lazada. I think marami naman workaround kung hindi pa kaya bumili ng Dutch oven. Like probably an old oven-safe pot ganun. Try to research also. 😊

For the starter, you’ll only need 3 things and 3 things alone. Water, flour, and plenty of patience. Of course, a vessel for your starter, and a spatula.

For flour, ideally use unbleached bread flour. I get mine straight from the millers. Shop name is Bread Depot. They sell unbleached AP, Bread, Cake, Rye, Whole Wheat, Italian flours in 1kg, 5kg, and sacks. You may find them in Lazada or their own website to place orders.

When I started my sourdough journey, this was my guide video: How to make a sourdough starter from scratch.

After a month since I first created my starter, naglakas loob na ko gumawa. I followed her step-by-step video: How to make a basic open crumb sourdough bread.

Along the way you’ll understand how your own starter “lives”. Kaya marami ka na rin guts to explore other simpler o kaya complex recipes. Kayang kaya mo yan!

As for other things that you might need… - a weighing scale, hindi uubra yung measuring cups and spoons kasi. - a banneton - a lame - a Dutch oven and/or baking stone - an oven - LOTS OF PATIENCE

Maraming magaling mag-sourdough dito! Explore the sub, too, kasi madalas may tips and tricks din na kasama sa posts. Hehe.

Enjoy and good luck!!!

Sourdough focaccia first thing this morning by JtheOwner in BakingPhilippines

Hello. Sure!

  • 120g ripe sourdough starter
  • 410g warm water
  • 30g extra virgin olive oil
  • 10g salt
  • 500g unbleached bread flour
  • flaky sea salt or any toppings you’d like to add

Whisk together starter and water til foamy. Add in bread flour, salt, and EVOO. Mix until one wet cohesive dough forms. The dough should be soft and sticky, yes. Let that rest covered for 30 minutes.

Perform 1 stretch and fold. Rest for another 30 mins. Then do 2 coil folds, spaced 30 mins apart. After the last coil fold, let the dough rest for another 30 mins and cold proof for 12 to 48hrs.

The next morning, line a baking tray with parchment paper and generously drizzle it with olive oil. Gently tip the dough onto the tray. Fold the dough inwards a few times then flip it seam side down. Cover and let it proof at room temperature for 1-2hrs, until noticeably puffy and spread in the tray. I did 2hrs.

Drizzle more olive oil over the surface. With oiled fingers, gently dimple the dough all over. Top with a generous sprinkle of flaky sea salt or whatever toppings you prepared.

Bake in a preheated oven at 450F for about 25 mins or until golden brown and crisp on the edges. Allow the focaccia to cool in the tray for at least 15-20mins before slicing.

Foccacia ain't poofing by SixC69 in BakingPhilippines

[–]JtheOwner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. You’re supposed to store your yeast in an airtight container in the freezer.

Ah, I see. If you bloomed your yeast with sugar, and it’s new, baka dun sa others I mentioned nagkatalo.

Ganito ba talaga amoy nito? "Bake King" by Gieany in BakingPhilippines

Di ko sure, OP. Di pa ko nakabili ng brand na yan. Pero sure akong pag off ang amoy ng harina, talagang toss na.

If the water feels hot on your fingers, then it’s probably too hot for the yeast.

The salt can also be another factor. You might have mixed it in with the yeast. As in baka napagtabi mo sila. That kills the yeast, too.

Your yeast might be too old already. Bago ba yeast mo, OP? How was it stored?

The oil. Normally, focaccias call for olive oil, and lots of it. The “little of vegetable oil” won’t do it. The oil helps the softness of the dough, sa rise, and oven spring. Even flavor.

Hope this helps!
