I'm converting!
This year I will convert my recipes to weight.
My holiday baking experience convinced me after needing to make about 8 batches of Floyd's Lazy Man's Brioche and 12 batches of french bread using a weighed recipe and having every batch turn out perfectly proportioned. It was so much easier having a mise en place and knowing it would turn out. I actually bagged up all the dry ingredients in ziplocs for all the french bread and did bakes over several days.Made a preferment every night,woke up and grabbed several bags and made the loafs for the day.What a pace!
So my resolution is short and simple. But not so simple when I started actually doing it. I discovered that even carefully measuring by cups and weighing I can have significantly different weights. So do I scoop up a cup 5 times and average the weights for grams? And then try out the final recipe?
Who's done this before and can offer some guidance on the easiest way to accomplish the task? I have LOTS of recipes.
