It was time to redo this one! I just changed some of the grains from the last time I made this and reduced the jalapeño amount because that’s what I had. I also couldn’t get fresh chives so freeze dried had to do. 

Recipe

Makes 3 loaves

Add-ins

55 - 100 g sliced pickled jalapeños (to taste)

250 g old cheddar cheese, cut into 1/4 inch cubes

3 g freeze dried chives or 24 g fresh chopped chives

Main Dough

100 g freshly milled Selkirk wheat flour 

My wife asked if I could make a soft sandwich bread for this weekend, so I did another round of my Pullman pan test loaf.  Just increased the size of the loaf.

For the levain, I used a combination of Raisin Yeast Water and little bit of mother starter in the build.  So...  I guess we'll call it a sour poolish.  :-)

After enjoying a few days away, I’m glad to be home and do some baking. This one has been on my list for a while – 100% spelt, based on this recipe. I think I’m finally starting to see progress in my ability to apply the various things I have learned over the last 6 months.

Tweaks I made:

Hi.. Everyone! I've been baking croissants for about 2years and this is the only thing i can't figure it out.. Will you suggest me to make it better

My stiff starter Etno (50% hydration) got a refresh today after being chilled for over a week so I mixed its discard with ingredients for hot cross buns. I figured I’ll just jot down the weights as I mixed them. The dough was rather sticky but manageable. Think I should reduce a lil bit of milk the next time I make these.

Going to a lunch time gathering tomorrow and i am making a 44.4% Wholemeal Potato Rosemary and Cheese loaf. It was going to be a Sour Dough version but my starter has been sluggish recuperating from its slumber in the freezer. It will recover just may need a few feeds to gain its vigor. So a conventional bulk fermented fresh yeast dough it is.

Hi everyone. I am starting a small bread bakery business and would love any tips that you have. Specifically I am looking for which products sell the best and basic startup ideas/advice. Thank you very much in advance. 

For a colleague's birthday made cardamom knots, but increased the amount of dough and filling to also give babka a go. Adapted the recipe from https://myloveofbaking.com/sourdough-cardamom-knots/ (except used all milk and no water in the dough). Here is the actual formula I used: https://fgbc.dk/1fvt
