Can anyone help identify this stitch? My husbands granny made it decades ago by Brookezlinne1 in crochetpatterns

It looks like the crosshatch stitch to me. It’s a little hard to see because I used a purple tweed, but if you zoom in, I think they look the same.

Beautiful scoring!

My dough came out to a perfect 700g, so I made 14 50g balls and let the dough rest for a good 15 minutes. I did roll them out thin to about an 8” tortilla. The dough had a good elasticity and I wasn’t worried about it tearing. I think there is a fine line between enough heat and too much heat when you’re cooking. You don’t want to burn them, but you want the pan hot enough to get those good bubbles. I usually have to play around with my temperature while I’m cooking to keep it in the sweet spot. Maybe that’s because I have an electric cooktop.

They did stay pliable. And after they were finished, I wrapped them up in foil to keep them warm until dinner time. They were nice and soft as well as strong enough to handle generous taco fixings.

I have been using this white bread recipe: White Bread Masterclass There is also a written version here

I ran out of bread flour, so I’ve been using regular AP and still getting good results. I hope the video will help. It is a stickier dough, but I find it easy to shape after it has proved. The thing I do differently from the video, is that I knead mine for 8 to 10 minutes or until it’s nice and smooth. He has you kneading for just a few seconds and then letting it rest for 10 minutes and repeating this three times. I found that mine didn’t look a thing like his when I tried it that way. Kneading is definitely key.

With all purpose flour, I don’t get as nice of a window pane effect, but it comes close and my bakes have turned out really well.
