t65 results crumb shot added

1-2-3 bread with 20% Caputo Semola Rimacinata. Add ins as part of liquid EVOO/honey / buttermilk( ran out of yogurt) levain all raisin YW. Crumb shot later. 

Edited to add crumb shot from 2 baguettes that I shaped with some of the dough just to see what would happen. Wow… cool custard open. Perfect. The book couldn’t be judged by the cover!

I love the look of the exploded boule. I wonder what other colour things in a doigh could be emphasized by that exploded look...

I don’t score but I love the unexpected exuberance that the loaf shows with its natural explosion!c

I like how natural sunlight makes the grigne look like orange lava in the photo that has both loaves.

At least I think it's natural sunlight. 

Benny and some other users regularly use natural sunlight. It looks so.... artist-y.

The T65 Le Moulin d'Auguste has a flavor that is impossible to describe. All avid bread bakers should be lucky enough to give it a try. I know of no US flour that approximates the real thing. KendalM introduced me to this flour and glad he did.

I like your idea of baking seam up and no scoring. That seems to work well with T65 dough that is on the weak side.

Well done, Caroline…

Wow Louisiana took a beating. My one nephew is in Covington and my poor brother in law is in LaPlace and other nephew in Baton Rouge. LaPlace was the worst. They are selling and moving and the BR nephew already has. I hope you and family and friends are recovering. 🙏

The flour and bread…. Yes there is no describing the pillowy touch and the fragrance. The Caputo adds even more with its creamy yellow. My raisin YW continues to amaze me and I regret all the lost years because I didn’t understand how to use the correct raisins! 

My husband doesn’t want me to bake anything BUT t 65 😂. Pizza crust is staggeringly good with it. I’m so glad our gyms are 2 blocks from the house! I run to them 5 days a week so I can wallow in t65 goodness… sigh. 

please post some of your doings. Did you suffer damage to your outside kitchen project? Is it done? Pictures? Take care c

Our home faired well, with the exception of the trees. Patsy lost her shop (hair salon), but happily she is retired. Hurricane Ida devastated a lot of people in our area. I’m 70yo, and don’t remember any other hurricane more destructive for us. 

I have no plans for an outside kitchen, and for that my wife is happy.

I’m sorry about the hair salon but at least it wasn’t needed for income . I guess I misunderstood about an outside building /patio project you were working on. I’m glad otherwise you fared well. Take care c

Beautiful baking Caroline, I’d love to try this T65 flour you all are loving, but it is too expensive to deliver it up to Canada.

I wish you had been able to get it while you were in FL !! I should have thought of that and could have sent a bag so it would have been waiting on you . I just checked shipping to Canada from US and it is insane. My daughter in law who lives here in VA  will be in Niagara on the Lake at her parent's house for Christmas. You are in Toronto ?  That's so close !! What if I could get it to her parents and then her Dad could send it on to you ? Message me and let's talk. c

Because we travel with our Nexus cards, there is a zero tolerance for bringing any food items across the border otherwise I would have ordered some flour to bring home.  Your second idea is incredible, I’ll message you, thank you Caroline.
