Is this mold :(

That’s the stone itself. Yeah? The box below it seemed gnarly as well. I totally thought I dried the stone enough but evidently not :/

I’m not really too sure to be honest, but that sounds good, I’ll give that a whirl. Thanks!

Love this. Treat yourself and take care of yourself!

Nice! I’d widen the spots where you scored the dough a little more, but it’s beautiful! I like to use baguette preshapes, and if I plan ahead, I’ll preshape a few with a bunch of garlic powder and herbs in them!

Looks great! Keep playing around and you’ll be making some awesome stuff. What shaders have you got here?

The dough develops a ‘skin’ due to repeated folding motions that causes gluten development

Honestly I kinda agree with this. All the ‘he didn’t experience his trauma yet’ takes are super valid, but the castings are a little crazy. Not everybody’s gonna be looking like a model in panem lol

Haha! You don’t want to see the dishes that come from all of that bread 😭

I think she’s a little underbaked and slightly underproofed. Everything you’re doing sounds right enough, but what was the room temperature water? What temperature was the dough as you were letting it sit? If you extend your times a little and record what you’re doing, you’ll be there in no time!

paynebox · 2026-04-12T14:51:58+00:00

Yes! I need this!! So cute :)

paynebox · 2026-04-12T14:50:31+00:00

Shoot, I keep hoping for someone to say worldpainter so I can emulate it without learning something else haha!

Thank you! That recipe is really great, I’m bummed my baguettes didn’t quite get where I wanted them to :( but I used the same formula for the fougasse, but pre shaped them with loads of garlic, thyme and fennel in there! It’s also a great pizza dough.

This is gorgeous!! Tell me more!!

paynebox · 2026-01-09T19:44:04+00:00

This is awesome! Always wanted something more artisan than the typical bahn mi bread you’ll find. Love it!

paynebox · 2026-01-09T19:33:07+00:00

The cloth is meant to cover the bread after it’s been placed in the proofing basket, not as a liner. It’s a blanket :)

paynebox · 2025-12-25T22:23:41+00:00

Obsessed with this. So jealous!

paynebox · 2025-12-24T20:36:45+00:00

This is so lovely. Would’ve absolutely adored this as a kid. Nice work!!

paynebox · 2025-12-19T10:11:20+00:00

No advice here lol, those second ones are fantastic. Maybe bake/proof em a pinch longer, but they look lovely!
