Are you ready for Urenika??......Purple Rewena....
Made with the Urenika potatoes from La Cigale last week
First success!
I was finally able to produce baguettes that I am happy about.
(didn’t have the nerves to post here until I had something to show off )
Thanks to txfarmer , I flowed the formula he posted under
Straight Method Baguette - a good starter baguette to practice on
(with title alteration on the flour parts)
This is my version, and what I did:
We bumped into a container marked as stock in the fridge. We were looking for stock but inside was a once mature YW levain for panettone that we made on Feb 1st. Here it was 2 weeks later and we still hadn’t used up all the excess levain build we had made trying to get to a panettone white levain.
happy valentine's day to all

Trying my hand a baguettes again, this time just bit smaller. These are only 250 grams and about 41 Centimeter long.
Good crumb, nice crisp outside and a slightly chewy inside, happy with them, sorry about the scoring

Sourdough Pizza: (Based on Maggie Glezer's Pizza Napoletana crust)
The loaf shown below used the same formula as the rolls I posted last week. The only difference is I increased the cheese to 50% of the flour percentage and increased to 650g total flour for a loaf size batch.
I've been refining the technique for making sourdough during the working week so that it's out of the oven in time for dinner. It's going pretty well now, and I'm regularly turning out loaves that I'm really pleased with.
