    I like that you milled your own flour. I've been collecting and growing wild wheats for about 7 years now. I mix in new wild genetics when I find them. Keep the best ones and regrow. It all started because I wanted to make my own bread. I can attest that a mill is so much easier than a mortar and pestle.

    • @TrueFoodTV
      @TrueFoodTV  2 роки тому +1

      Sometimes the dough seals up too quickly for a few reasons: if there's not enough steam to keep the crust supple, or enough strength left in the gluten for the final oven spring (a sign of overproofing). Let me know if I can help troubleshoot! 🙌

    recently i've been working on a no-knead bread and the flavor is great, but it's very difficult to score because the dough itself is very soft. it almost pours out of the container it fermented in, to give you an idea of how soft and loose it is. the dough is also decently wet at 70% water (300g flour, 4.5g salt, 3g instant yeast, 210g water). the lame kind of pulls and drags the whole mass of dough with it. if anyone has any advice i'd greatly appreciate it!

      @TrueFoodTV  2 роки тому +1

      Timely question, Mike! I literally just used some for the first time ever... in THIS batch that you see in the video. (10 g malt to 2000 g of flour) So I can't say yet after just one try, but so far so good. I think it added a depth of flavor, and I was pleased with the gluten strength (can I credit the diastatic malt? not sure). The most noticeable thing was the softness in the texture of the crumb. What's been your experience with it?

      It's not burning that's usually the problem, it's the way to add steam to your oven. I have steam pods that heat up with the oven and I pour water into at the last minute.

    OMG! You didn't answer the main question I had. HOW DEEP do I cut? I'll go by visual and say 1-2cm (~1/2 inch). I've been using a really sharp chef's knife and it cuts cleanly and smoothly. Chef's knife and razor blade being nearly polar opposites. I must be compensating with attitude and confidence. ;-)

    I think we should apply this technique in Pizza, because today's time everyone likes Pizza and want to make delicious food with Pizza..

    Have confidence, by never cutting towards your other hand. I've had enough of cutting myself that I'll put my other hand behind my back.

    Great video but swinging that blade around so close to your free hand looked like a trip to the ER was about to happen.
