http://violencebaguettesviolence.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 26, 2008. Breadmaking for the lazy. I find myself in Connecticut, separated from the 'Ley-made sourdough starter but with all this bread-making time on my hands. But, of course, also, I am commitedly lazy. Luckily, there is a solution: no-knead bread. Even better: eight-hour no-knead bread. This bread will be delicious, and not involve kneading. 15 C bread flour (we used King Arthur). 225 tsp active dry yeast (one packet). 075 C water at room temperature. A sprinkle of cornmeal. 7 ...

Monday, June 15, 2009. Further forays into the baguette-o-sphere. Oh man, I've had this post sitting in draft limbo for ages. Time to set it free:. A few weeks ago, Mark Bittman linked. To this baguette recipe. So of course I bookmarked it. The link is very worth checking out - he links to some excellent videos demonstrating kneading techniques. Anyways, I've used this recipe twice now and both times the baguettes came out excellent. I had to change my scale's unit mode to grams, for Chrissakes! I just d...

Saturday, November 29, 2008. Rye Must I Chase the Cat? There's no easy answer. 60% hydration [100% flour (3/4 white-bread, 1/4 dark rye), 60% water, by weight]. More salt this time—a full 1/2 teaspoon for 2 cups of flour total. I realized my eyeballing was woefully conservative. Squashed against the table. Turn a light switch on and off and consider the time it takes to be thoughtful. 2 pre-risings (one of which had to be retarded in the fridge, in the 80's "Let's get retarded! 10 tbsp. water. The trick ...

Sunday, June 28, 2009. What fate had in mind for these croissants. In the laborious process of making these croissants, I think we were meant to learn about either restraint or perseverance. In the end, we chose to only learn about perseverance. Despite all the obstacles that poor reading comprehension threw at us, Eric and I succeeded in making some buttery, if slightly smoky-tasting, croissants. We used the recipe in the beautiful Tartine. Cookbook. Some photographs:. Whatever you do, don't do this:.
