I want to maintain my skills in making baguettes. Unlike Alan and Don who has really developed their skills for the long haul, I find unless I make them every few months my skills backslide. I haven’t made baguettes with inclusions in a long long while so decided to add a handful of poppyseeds to the dough.
I haven't been logging loaves as much recently in part because I don't have easy internet access but also because I haven't been doing too much different.
I found a handful of chanterelles the day before I wad planning to bake, so that became the inspiration for this one. For whatever reason the ones I've found this year don't seem to have much flavor, but it's still fun to throw them in. Olives are always a nice savory addition.
450g loaf
I’m trying to make Crystal bread please can you help me with a good recipe I can use with method and instructions
Finally home and had a chance to bake a loaf of bread. We are really enjoying this particular blend of whole spelt and whole wheat along with a combination of nuts and/or seeds. I decided to use walnuts, sesame and poppy seeds this time and I’m glad that I did, the flavour from these inclusions really enhance the flavour of this milk bread.
The past three months were non-bake months due to travel. Coming home I had to refresh my 100% AP levain and did so from my healthy 75% hydration mixed flour levain. 3 or 4 builds within 24 hours was all it took to have a hearty levain to work with.
All posted by me before, and I pondered whether to even post these, but what the heck. Here's what came out of my oven between Sunday and Wednesday.
Somewhat Deli Rye w/caraway - way easier than a true deli rye and just as tasty.
750g x 2 batards.

Howdy folks!
A few months back while doing some genealogy research, I discovered that I was related to a miller in North Carolina- my 7th great grandfather was Thomas W. Lindley, founder of Lindley Mills. I hadn't heard of Lindley Mills before and was super eager to try out their flour. I ordered 25lbs of bread flour and really liked it- it baked nicely, and I powered through a ton of it getting my chops up on the Ooni doing pizza. It's a great price, and affordable shipped to Atlanta from NC.
Just like they do it in New Orleans!
