steaming nuance
Hi all, borrowing heavily from this post's constant flow of great ideas, I've come up with a twist of wet paper toweling around the perimeter of the loaf, inside the stainless wok cover. Got a nice delicate, crispy crust , and some scores that nearly did what I wanted to achieve. It's Petaluma Rye again, and the loaf pan version, unsteamed, needed some time in the fridge to slow it down. I would have liked baking them together, but lack of space was the issue. Some pictures, I hope, included. Ray
