» Proof Bread is a modern throwback to a way of life that values small-scale craftsmanship, local community, and creativity. We are a small group of passionate bakers working in our garage (thanks to cottage laws) which has been converted into a micro-bakery. Everything we bake is made by hand, from the best local ingredients, with no short cuts.

Jesus, these are the most intuitive hands I have seen. You're working magic with then loaves with no effort at all. Such a miracle to watch!
I just started making sour dough this year and am not doing so well shaping. I can’t wait for the day I make a loaf that’s beautiful inside and out and tastes delicious Loved this video.
Wishing you the best of luck!! Just take it slow, remember to be nice to yourself (and your starter), and keep trying! You will get it. I think it takes 100s of loaves to get the feel for what you like. If you have a local sourdough bakery, go see if you can hop in for a day to get loads of practice all at once. Shaping is such a meditation when you get there. ❤️
Watching Amanda scoring and talking in the scoring video completely fixed a problem I was having with my sourdough boules. The difference after learning from her was ginormous. Thank you for these videos!
The way she does it makes it look so incredibly easy, this is just beautiful.
It is beautiful to watch but I just wish it was truly that effortless for me! With such beautifully rised loaves of course she can flop them around while talking nonstop. Maybe that's the secret. I over-obsess about my shaping.
As someone who only uses whole meal, white flour is easy to work with.
@@maureenperez9999 I always mess it up when I get to shaping. :(
@@guyeshel9316 I used to have that problem too. I absolutely threw out at least 12 loaves of dough because it was too sticky for me to shape. I threw my SD starter out and stopped trying. No book worked for me. About a year later, I started watching videos from a baker in Germany. I realized I was trying too hard to shape the dough. That baker autolyses the flour/water for 2-12 hrs...depending on his daily routine...which makes the dough easy to "stretch and fold". The gamechanger for me is an "old-school" pastry mat that has been sold for over 70 yrs...at least. It sticks to the counter, allows tension while shaping the dough, is plenty big for multiple loaves at a time...and folds neatly away for storage.
Sometimes if the dough is too sticky and difficult to shape, I will shake flour around the base of the dough to unstick it. Bread is still light and puffy if I don't over-flour the surface. The other gadget I found on Amazon...is a metal ball with holes which can be used to sprinkle powder sugar, or in my case...FLOUR. I can control the flow and amount without making the dough too dense. Works great for sprinkling flour in Bannettons, as well.
I can finally spend only 10 mts shaping the dough before putting it into basket for proofing overnight. So relieved. I hope this helps you and anyone who is struggling.
@@maureenperez9999 i can’t wait to try your “tips”!!!! I’m ready to give up! This is the second time I’ve revisited sour dough bread
Only a master would try to teach this way. (Do your own thing. Find your own way. Get to know your starter.) I watched several shaping videos, but knew this baker was a master after she shaped her first loaf. Thanks for sharing!
i wish this was longer… so soothing and warm, could watch it all day.
Ha. Maybe we should do a segment. Daily dough shaping with Amanda, a “breaditation”. 😂
Amanda's Zen approach is an inspiration to me, I'm just starting and easily get frustrated when things don't go right. To let the dough dictate how you handle it is a great help for me, thank you!
Real Zen!
I'm just making my 4th loaf & still experimenting with shaping. My first batard looked great. The last two were not that great.
« Shaping can be very meditative » ❤ she got my heart here
I think its important to teach technique. Everyone's journey may be personal but you still can benefit from learning the RIGHT way.
Is there really a “right” way? Am I doing it right??
@@amandaabou-eid1873 you are a pro. I should have chosen my words more carefully. I meant to say that I’ve found teaching a technique (of which there are many) from start to finish often gives amateur bakers a good grounding.
As a one year long sour dough baker, I love watching your videos and hearing all the comments. It really teaches me a lot. Thank you.
A bakers resume is their hands and head.
Beautiful to watch and i can tell you've done this many many thousands of times
“A bakers resume…” I love this.
Making bread, a symbol of life, is an art that nourishes the mind and body. Artisan bread creates a time bridge that unites us to our ancestors. Passing down the secrets of how artisan bread is made from generation to generation is a very important task. Respect and honor for all those bakers who dedicate their lives with passion, love and sacrifice to the art of baking. Cheers, Domenico.
I live in Karachi Pakistan I like your comments send 4 month ago
I came here to learn about making a better bread.. but i ended up learning about living a better life. Thank you Amanda
My pleasure!! Honored you found some bonus value. ❤️ Happy baking, my friend!
Love it, she adds another view of one lump of dough isn't the same fold as the next? "She's good at anything she does" certainly shows.
Hope it helps to show different ways of shaping!
Love the tips on rescuing product. I have always said, it’s not what you do when things are going well, it’s what you do when things are going wrong.
Amanda, this is one of my favourite videos you have done; the details on how to shape a loaf is so clear and well done. Of course we know you are so Flat out busy that it is hard for you to get the time to do these. It is like being mentored by you on this one. Thank you for sharing knowledge. Great job! I hope in future you will get time again once you have staff enough to do so. Have a good rest of your day.
I could've kept listening for another day of this!
Now I know why I’ve been so drawn to your videos lately. Florence and the Machine oh hell yeah!❤
The one downside to being in a retail space now is that we can’t quite blast the music while shaping anymore without drowning out customer orders. Also, everything must be pretty PG. I often miss these days of jamming out to whatever I wanted (as loud as I wanted). 😂
Amanda is so helpful. I like her approach to dough shaping. She's definitely a Master.
Get out. This is so nice of you to say!! I feel like a forever student. Never master (but I’ll take the compliment, haha!).
I just started work at a bakery. I'm watching your videos to learn. Thank you!
Every other sourdough bread video tutorial scares you into being gentle with the dough during the shaping process yet here she has no problem slapping it down and folding it over and over again. No wonder my dough comes our flabby and shapeless! I now have renewed confidence when it comes to shaping the dough.
You make it look so effortless. Anyone who's touched dough knows it's anything but easy. Thousands of hours of shaping leading up to this -- beautiful video
I've never ever ever worked or touched white flour before, and have only ever baked with whole meal. But using white flour honestly looks 100x easier in every single case. I couldn't imagine how easy it'd be if I swapped to it.
@@softenbysam this is made with whole grain flour, just because the dough looks white doesn’t mean it’s white flour. If you’re American, you’re probably using just hard red wheat whole flour, which gives you that much darker color.
I think you have done PhD in bread making working 100 *100*100*100 hrs. Honing your skill. Now you ar my teacher. I have subscribed!
OMG that's shaping level: GOD. I'm pretty comfortable with my bread, but now I absolutely need to start shaping this way.
you can tell shes done this millions of times! much respect
Thanks! It was actually quite hard for me to break it down to teach. lol. Even to this day!
Who knew I could learn many life lessons from just watching how to roll & shape bread. Thank you so much for that!! ❤️
Seriously though. I could listen to her all day. her attitude is like "I'm relaxed and confident because I know wtf I'm doing here". It's so amazing.
So glad I came across this lesson. I’m intrigued by the big bowl of flour (is it rice flour) which saves on the fussy way of dusting the banneton. I love watching your confident handling of the dough. So inspiring. Thank you. 🙏 🌷😃
My go to video to learn how to fold bread dough. The effortless way she shapes the dough is just outstanding.
Happy to hear this is your go to! What an honor! 🥰
I tried your shaping method, had the best oven spring ever, thank you
Honored!! 💗
Just watching you handle the dough in the first 2 minutes changed my outlook on handling and shaping. In the past, I've approached the dough very carefully and gingerly and ended up getting it stuck everywhere it wasn't supposed to be. You look so relaxed and deft; this obviously isn't your first day. :)
Out of all the sour dough shaping out there you are a master!! Just made my first sour dough loaf and ready to bake off in the morning!
You are an inspiration 🥖
Aw!!! I hope it was a success! And if not, don’t worry. That’s the beauty of this black hole that is sourdough baking. ❤️ Keep trying!
This was such an enjoyable video. I noticed you weren't pre-shaping the loaves all the same way and then you explained why. As someone new to this it blows my mind that you can talk on camera and mindlessly shape loaves with different techniques. I hope I'm that skilled one day! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Amanda, I appreciate your attitude and your philosophy. You Make bread the way I cook. It's from the heart it's an attitude it's a Feeling, no cookbook, just a lot of heart and a lot of practice
wow! it's like a master class to me
I bake sourdough bread at home for almost two years and still find a lot of interesting tips in your videos
It is so incredibly relaxing to be watching and listening to this. Thank you for the good vibes.
You’re very welcome. ✌️&❤️
This is the fourth time I have watched this video. My goodness you make it look so effortless.
Finally pulled it off today and it feels so good. Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge with us！
This instructor makes the technique look almost zen...a great guiet time activity. Then we get to bake!
Thank you
So glad to hear I can find my own way to shape my loaves. Thank you.
Totally. It’s all about your own relationship to your heap of microorganisms. lol.
You’re wonderful!! Thank you!! I’ve been baking at home and needed instruction on shaping. This is a masterclass. Thank you again!
Amanda I have seen a lot of UA-cam bakers shape bread, some professional and others navies but good bakers none the less, I have also lived in France over 13 years with my family members and of whom owned their own Boulanger and I worked with them and learned a lot in break making. I too have shaped thousands of loaves and baguettes but I really like the way you brad shape your bread and I too don't like to leave the ends open and like you, I too fold them over. So many bakers could learn a LOT from this video.
I have been waiting for a video focused on shaping like this one. Thanks Amanda
Thanks Amanda, we love your channel guys. You are helping us develop our skills.
You make it look so easy! I love your videos.
Love watching you shape this bread.
Love doing it! This is probably one of my favorite parts of the sourdough baking process. ❤️ It’s just a time to jive around a table. Whether you’re doing it alone (meditation) or in community, it’s a great experience when you start to get in a groove.
I have been struggling with flat (albeit delicious) loaves. This is super helpful - thank you!
Thank you so much for the valuable tips on baking and specially the over proofing one. Take care
A couple months ago, I asked the "reshape" question you kindly answered in Reddit and no one seemed to know if it was ok to reshape or give a little tension boost just before baking. Glad you talked about it.
If you reshape, you need to reproof (to let it inflate again), so it's not advised. Only reshape if your dough overproved.
Thank you so much for that lesson :)
I'm struggling with the shaping all the time :)
I think now it will be much better
True artist. Love watching you work.
I love this pace! It's love, it time, it mediation :)
Good to see a practiced pair of hands. You can see how you "communicate" with your dough to bring it to the desired consistency. 👍🏼
I'm a visual learner in many ways and getting to watch your work repeatedly while listening to your hints and commentary I found quite entertaining and informative. Thank you.
Final shaping master class. Like a boss!
Well this is actually one of the most informative videos on the subject I've seen...
Thank you for explaining this with such patience. You are giving us the opportunity to learn by watching & that’s actually pretty cool!
Really enjoyed watching you work. It was very helpful to simply watch you work. This video’s timing is perfect. I just got my starter going well and I’m struggling with shaping. Very helpful and wonderful commentary.
I am so glad I found this channel. I am newer to making bread and sourdough bread. I enjoy watching the process to making and shaping of the bread.
Such a relaxing and reassuring video - makes me realise I only have another 70 loaves to go before I've finally "got it". 😉
I’m just finding this video in Feb 2022. The method is so relaxing.
beautiful craftsmanship
I like this video! Today, I have adopted your way of shaping the dough and very curious how it turns out tomorrow when I bake it. Thanks Amanda!
Another brilliant vid from Proof! Thanks.
Wow. Watching your hands do this dancing is a pleasure to the eyes. A lot of cueues to pick up. And folding is my weak spot. Thanks.
Happy to provide!
And yes, folding is basically “first shaping”. lol. First time to play with the dough after mixing and understand its properties (or attitude) for the day.
Thank you for teaching me this!
Thanks Amanda your words and shaping technique are beautiful
You are the best. Thanks for sharing your tips
Thanks Amanda for the over proofing tip! What is the difference between preshaped and non preshaped loaves?
Great hands with the dough!!
Thank you 🙏 😊 🥖
You make it look easy but what a good way to teach thank you 😊
Thank you! This helps explain some of the things I have seen in some of my loaves.
Such utter skill and finesse. I really like how she connects the act of engaging in the activity to gaining a larger benefit beyond simply ending up with a perfect result. It's so true.
I wonder what the hydration level of that dough is.
The dough balls look so perfect
It's very interesting and of course it's a matter of experience... But I'm a home cook that is always experimenting and what I've learned with bread is that there si no bad bread! It doesn't matter if it's more dense, more chewy or not, with more crust, more white flour, 100% wholemeal... whatever... I love all of them! 😁
absolutely thrilling. and each one a little bit different and unique. beautiful.
You are an excellent teacher ....
Many hundreds of hours of muscle memory and feel. Beautiful to watch.
Real Professional at work...Toll!
The lady is a philosopher..
My respect
Great info and technique thank you
Wonderful tips! Especially liked that you should learn to read your dough so you know how to best roll it to get that final shape. Thanks so much for sharing your insights!
Great video. Thank you. I am really struggling with the final shaping.
I can watch this for a millions years without stopping
Still watching...
Wow! This was very helpful. Thank you!
Love it! Especially after seeing so many bread baking youtubers telling me to be _extra_ careful when shaping so not to degas the dough. If this video does not prove that false I don't know what would 😃
love your style and the bread is beautiful too
I am so so impressed by the way you explain this hand craft. 👏👏👏👏👏😍
Wow I really liked this! When you explained why you were doing what you were doing, tucking in the ends and eliminating those wrinkles, you gained a subscriber. Well done.
I'm in the middle of a bulk ferment and I'm going to attempt this technique today. Wish me luck!
Amazing mastery!
Thank you Amanda. You and Jon have helped me so much. I keep finding new points to focus on! And still don't have any oven spring! This helps a lot, especially knowing it's possible to reshape after putting into Banneton. My next question is about fermentation. Wasn't allowing any time for this! When do you allow fermentation time, before shaping? after shaping? how much time (this doesn't apply to me since my kitchen is so much colder than Arizona kitchens), what results do you look for to know it's time for the next step? Can't thank you, and Jon, enough for all the help you have given me. Bless you both! You deserve all the success you are receiving and I pray your rewards increase going forward. You have helped so many.
Great to watch smooth repetitious technique!
This video was super helpful to improve my shaping techniques. Thank you. Fernando from Mendoza, Argentina.
This really is an excellent video. Thank you!
You rock Amanda, on all levels
She makes this look waaaaaaayyyy too easy... 👏👏👏
Loved it! Thank you👌❤❤
Been having trouble with the dough proofing too much in the fridge, didnt know you could save it by reshaping!! ty
Thank you for sharing the tips of shaping the dough, l from Borneo. That's is super awesome. Thank you .
My new meditation video. So therapeutic watching and listening. Of course the information is priceless.
Beautiful to watch and listen to her 💜
