Too wet. Too dry. I'm doomed!
So, a couple of days ago I posted about my failure with the Brianna's Pugliese recipe in The Bread Bible. It was just too wet and didn't have enough flour so it flopped.
Today I'm making the BBA's Poolish Ciabatta recipe and gosh darn it's too dry! I added a bit more water towards the end of the kneading but didn't make much difference. I did a search here now and I see I'm not the only one having this problem with this particular recipe.
So, these rustic Italian breads are kicking my butt! One's too wet, the other's too dry...perhaps the third will be just right? LOL
I will let you know how these ciabattas turn out!
