Parisian baguette, Filone Rustico con Semola

 

All systems go!

 

 

 

 

The Filone dough. ( Two hrs. In)

The no knead 90% hydration ( for all intents and purposes) dough has just about doubled.

Just before the third rubaud fold the  Parisian baguette dough has expanded nicely.

With just about 60 minutes to go in the Filone bulk the dough is very active and more than doubled in volume.

Dough

A successful culmination of a full day of baking. My mentor, Allie Boy would be proud!
