This is the kind of crumb that I LOVE.
I am not a fan of those big holes in the bread, after all, you can not eat holes ;)
I of course understand that taste differs.
Have a lovely Sunday and HAPPY BAKING.
I guess it happens once in a blue moon... forgot something cos you didnt gather all the components together. The only thing that saved these batards were the sundried tomatoes that were added in and the little shower of salt that went on top as an afterthought. They were bulk fermented and proofed cold more by necessity than by design so could have helped slow down the yeast activity. Certainly the appearance is distinctly duller than normal, lacking the sheen that comes i think from a certain degree of caramelization.. That was SD with sweet raisins sundried tomatoes and thyme..
A picture of this Year's Thanksgiving Puff Paste Rugelach - Apricot / Walnut variety shown but the Chocolate Brown Sugar ones seemed to be the hit as always.

My mom always made bread and I was interested but never asked to be taught. My mother in law - same thing.
Now this site has made it possible! My first loaves of French Bread!
Thanks for the information and links to my new world.
I dont do much but I can bake a loaf of bread. It's because you helped me, and for TFL I am thankful.
Cari Amici, solo per voi le Spiegazioni per fare il Panino Coccodrillo.
Gli utensili in plastica e metallo che vedete nella foto principale da noi si chiamano 'tarocchi'.
Qui di seguito i passaggi per la formatura del Coccodrillo.
Just trying to come to grips with the site for a moment...thanks, and nice to meet you all
Every year we bake up a simple bread for Thanksgiving stuffing. Sometimes it is a poolish, sometimes it is yeast water or a YW and SD combination and sometimes, like this year, it is a simple SD near white bread.
Cari Amici,
oggi ho preparato un bel cestino di soffici Panini, mia figlia li adora e me li chide spesso, voi cosa ne pensate?
Sono un ottimo accompagnamento per una zuppa di verdure calda ed autunnale; sono straordinari con prosciutto, formaggio ed insalata, ma sono anche stratosferici con la Nutella.
Che dire.....non vi resta che provare a farli e magari, se ne avete voglia, fatemi sapere come vi sono venuti.
A presto, un affettuso saluto a tutti.
Anna
