Submitted by Eidetix on November 25, 2010 - 9:21am Links to videos on kneading by handHappy Thanksgiving to all. For what it's worth, you will find below a handful of links to videos that demonstrate hand-kneading technique. I encourage others to add comparable links herein, so this thread might become a reference point for TFL posters with questions on the topic. Links were current as of Nov. 25, 2010. The first video features world-class baking teacher Richard Bertinet demonstrating his slap and fold technique. He is working with sweet dough, but I believe he recommends a similar approach with other doughs. The Bertinet link: http://www.gourmet.com/magazine/video/2008/03/bertinet_sweetdough YouTube offers a French student showing and telling (in English) the ins and outs of slap and fold. I like this one because it's light-hearted. The clip is headlined "Hand Dough Kneading French Method." Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvdtUR-XTG0 The following segment showcases TFL stalwart Mike Avery applying the more gentle fold, push and turn technique. The video is about halfway down the page, just beneath the second chart thereon. The Avery link: http://www.sourdoughhome.com/kneadingconverting.html The next link also illustrates fold, push and turn. It's from Fleischmann's Yeast. At about 90 seconds, it won't take much of anyone's time. The Fleischmann's link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9KX4KFBj5w For good measure, this demo from epicurious also addresses fold, push (or stretch) and turn. The epicurious link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWj8oHMPFm0 As to recommended techniques, I recommend that you ask somebody who knows much more about making bread than I do. Otherwise, please enjoy, add to and comment on. Bob Submitted by Erzsebet Gilbert on October 16, 2009 - 6:58am Blog link problems, which made me a little mad!Hey to everybody, anybody - This isn't a bread concern, but just personal, and something that sort of irritated me - on my TFL profile, I'd posted a link to my own external blog, but checking up on my account discovered that somehow a website with which I'm not at all associated - a bible sales corporation - had somehow pirated the link. No idea how - has this happened to anybody else here? I think I've corrected the problem, but if anybody's interested, my real blog is http://erzsebetgilbert.blogspot.com/ where I don't sell things - I just put up my own short stories, travelogues, diaries, and photographs. Apologies, thanks, and greetings to all - Erzsebet |
