Mini breads for a great friend !
Bonjour à tous,
A friend asked me to prepare something special for him for a party he wants to do in the spring. In principle I only bake bread at home for the family and friends I receive. And I also give a lot. But I don't make bread on demand. Exceptionally I will do it for this friend.
So, to be really original, I thought about it and decided to test something that I have never done.
This morning, with a dough recipe that I use for my express breads, I tried (or rather I quickly tested) the possibility of making mini breads.
Here is the result which encourages me and which means that I will soon test mini wholemeal breads, rye and other white breads. I think this idea will surprise my friend's guests!
I specify that these mini breads are not for decoration! They must be eaten!
Good breads for all ! T.J.
Bonjour à tous,
I tested 5 different bread doughs to make my mini breads.
1 - A 100% wholewheat T150 dough.
2 - A 100% rye T150 dough.
3 - A dough 50% whole flour T150 + 50% flour T80.
4 - A dough 50% T155 flour + 50% T65 spelled flour.
5 - A 100% T45 flour dough.
The 1st and 2nd give mini round breads that I will have to improve further. Mini long breads look more like sticks than breads. Which can be understood because they are heavy and rather dry doughs which does not have a lot of bulk even for large breads. These sticks are still good and could perfectly accompany, among other things, fried or boiled eggs.
The third gives mini round breads that I will have to improve further. Long mini breads are thicker and fluffier and still look like sticks. But I figured out how to make them really look like breads.
The 4th and the 5th give suitable round breads. And also give long breads that look like breads.
Overall, everything is good and is eaten with pleasure. When the time comes to really make these mini breads for my friend, I will know how to improve some flaws and I think it will be possible to make a nice presentation for the table.
In any case, it's a fun experience that doesn't take much time, but you have to be well organized.
Good breads for all ! T.J.
Just for the fun video of minis breads !
Thanks TJ - they look very professional!

Hello, thank you, it's nice of you.
The main thing is not to be bored and to enjoy eating what we do. And for that, it is sometimes necessary to leave the usual paths. Let's be inventive to have a good time with family and friends! Regards, T.J.
