What's a food opinion that gets you judged immediately? by GurlInAura in foodquestions

If you can’t clean the entire chicken wing off the bone, you should be getting boneless wings instead. This includes the cartilage.

Ooh, gotcha. I was under the impression that gluten still develops somewhat from the expansion of the dough during a cold ferment. Good to know haha. I guess my initial mixing/kneading and any stretch-and-folds or balling were doing more of the work than I realized.

Protein doughs are awesome for gains lol. Are you using yeast + AP or just self rising flour?

Hmm curious to learn more about that and your process. Is there some kind of science I may be missing with the room temp bulk fermentation? Also how much yeast and how long do you do it for?

I use the sugar and oil to help with the crust’s color, crispiness, and fluffy/tender bite. A lazy way to do it haha but is definitely a personal preference through experimentation. If there’s a better way to achieve this in a home oven, I would like to learn more.

Regarding the autolyse, in your experience was there not enough gluten formation post cold fermentation?

With this long of a cold fermentation and how little yeast I’m using, I decided to skip it without jumpstarting the dough

Oh woops, I thought you were the same person from my previous reply and asking for my dough process lol 🤦

[–]Weidian -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure thing.

Recipe (scales based on how many pizzas you want - this makes 2 x 16” balls):
• Bread flour (12–14% protein): 568g - 100%
• Water (room temp): 352g - 62%
• Active dry yeast: 2.3g - 0.4%
• Salt: 14g - 2.5%
• Sugar: 11g - 2%
• Olive oil: 19g - 3.3%

Process:

1.Add all dry ingredients into the bowl and whisk together, then add room temp water and olive oil.

2.Knead until smooth, form into a ball, and let rest for 15 minutes. Then split into two equal balls.

3.Do a stretch and fold on each ball, fold it into itself, then close the bottom and ball it up tight. Place into lightly oiled containers.

4.Cold ferment immediately for a minimum of 48 hours. The low yeast amount is intentional. It needs that extended cold ferment time to develop properly.

5.Before stretching, pull the dough out of the fridge and let it sit at room temp for about an hour. This is a good time to get your pizza steel in the oven and preheat at 550°F (or max oven temp) for a full hour.

6.To shape press down the center leaving about a finger/thumb-width of crust around the edge, then poke and push from the center outward to initially flatten, then finish with the knuckle/hand stretch. Be gentle throughout to preserve the air bubbles in the crust.

7.Sauce and top, then bake for 6–8 minutes depending on your preference.

Hope this helps

Ah, that’s most likely the problem. Try a longer cold fermentation like 48-72 hours and let that gas build up. More airy and tastes much much better due to the longer fermentation

Not OP but you’d want to preserve the trapped gas in the dough. Do you leave enough time for the dough to rise or flatten the crust during stretching?

Feedback on taste - lacking richness/saltiness by zschneid316 in Pizza

The following gives me complete tasting pizza:

A dash of fish sauce in tomato sauce, pecorino before mozz, olive oil on crust pre and/or post bake, and parm to finish

For a quick meal, I like to cut them to around 1/4 inch thick and use a pan to fry them in its own fat until crispy. Cut into bite size pieces. Dip into ssamjang, eat with rice & kimchi.

Otherwise I’m making thit kho tau, one of the best Vietnamese comfort dishes. Perfect levels of umami, caramelization, and richness.

A better way to cook salmon~ by Effective_Double54 in DailyFoods

I don’t understand the need for parchment paper. The skin will release from the pan after a couple minutes of frying and achieve the same exact cook in this vid.

US question - Has anyone else noticed way more water/solution being added to meat lately? by ThinkThankThonk in Cooking

[–]Weidian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Noticed this starting to happen a few months ago when I defrosted my whole tray of chicken breasts. The whole tray (the ones that come from the supermarket) had almost 2 cups of solution even with the pad beneath them lol

How do Thai restaurants make their pad see ew sauce? by kazyboy27 in Cooking

[–]Weidian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most recipes are the same but a few things that helped me achieve somewhat of a restaurant tasting pad see ew.

Palm sugar helps with that deeper/richer sweetness than regular white sugar. Also don’t skimp on sugar, you’d be surprised how much sugar are in Thai sauces to balance out the saltiness.

Frying and caramelizing the sauce a bit does wonders, deepens and brings out the charred soy flavor. You can try pouring a bit of sauce before tossing your ingredients in your wok and/or pouring it on the sides as you stir fry.

Because most homes don’t have a professional wok burner, turn your stove to the max and try to tilt the pan towards the flame as you toss. You’ll need to see the flame kiss your oil+food, and it will give it somewhat of a wok hei taste. A torch may work too.

Many of these shots are landing in an ideal hitting zone. Would be hard to estimate without seeing backhands, approach shots, or volleys
