  • The dough will seem fairly wet when shaping into rounds, but the high hydration is key to forming those trademark nooks and crannies. This is part of BA's Best, a collection of our essential recipes.

    I really love the POV of these videos because when the camera is on the other side of the countertop it feels like you're in the kitchen with Claire and she's right in front of you teaching you how to do this, it's just very easy and friendly and creates a closeness which is interesting also the background conversations I'm so glad you leave in the background white noise

      They look a lot like "placke/lepine" what we call them around here. They are made with a regular bread/pizza dough. We grill/fry them on a lightly oiled skillet and eat them with sour cream/parsley/ricotta mixture. My mother would make them with the left over bread dough. I have yet to meet anyone who doesnt like them.

    • @TheZuma100
      @TheZuma100 6 років тому +1

      Getting up on the weekends as a kid and seeing mom make "lepinice" as i used to call them was probably the best part of that day. Adding some full fat homemade sour cream and maybe some processed meat made my day the best. And yes this does look a lot like that. Cheers to you buddy! :)

    Thumbs up for this recipe. I followed it pretty much to the letter, which I NEVER do. I wanted to make the recipe half whole wheat and use my homemade sourdough starter instead of yeast but decided to follow the first time as is and make my own variations next time. This is a very wet sticky dough this accompanying UA-cam tutorial with the author's tips are helpful to see. I followed and it worked out just fine. The overnight refrigerator rise is a nice way for the flavors to meld and the dough to aerate. When I shaped the dough into rounds a let it proof for the 60-70 minute 2nd rise, my kitchen had that yeasty, fresh dough smell, which made me feel that I was on the right track. I found the portion size to be more generous than other recipes I've tried. Some expanded to small hamburger bun size, which I liked. More nooks and crannies.
    A few notes:
    • The buttermilk gave the finished product a nice tang reminiscent of sourdough.
    • I did not warm up the buttermilk. What's the point? It's going back in the refrigerator.
    • I used Bob's Red Mill Artisanal Unbleached Enriched Bread Flour. This is a fairly substantial flour as opposed to a Pillsbury or Gold Medal bread flours.
    • A dough scraper really doughs come in handy.
    • The 2 spatula method she used in the video helps for the first turn as the dough is still wobbly
    • I used a Kitchen Aid with the dough hook.
    Great recipe! if you have a fair amount of bread baking experience, this recipe may seem counter-intuitive, even with the dough hook and 5 minutes of kneading the result is more lava-like than clay, but I think if one follows the instructions and watches the video they will have good results. And now I am off to deliver freshly baked English muffins to my elderly neighbors who are sheltering. 4 each or the 2 of them and 4 for me to keep.

    Right now Claire is my favorite food vlogger. I wish she would tackle basics that didn't involve modern machines. You know that people cooked and baked before new spray oils or mixers. I know it isn't her thing -- it isn't at all the focus of this series, yet, it would be easy to follow her into the basics like this because she has developed trust with us.
