Mein erstes Baguette. 🥖

Ein richtig guter Einstieg und so lecker, dass alle drei direkt zum Abendessen dran glauben mussten. 😉

Gelockert mit Hefe und eigtl mit 12-16h Kaltgare. Aufgrund von $keineZeit konnte ich gestern nicht backen und es wurden 40h. hat dem Geschmack nicht geschadet, der Farbe vielleicht ein wenig.

Habe schon viele Ideen wo und wie ich am Grundrezept (Hier von Jo Semola) schrauben werde. Wird sicher interessant.

Continued thread

I did learn something from today tho'.

I'd been experimenting with slightly lower placement in the oven. One rack position lower. It makes the bake take a couple of minutes more and I hoped I would get a thicker crust out if it, and to a small degree... I _think_ it did? Just a little.

But it was not actually _better_. I didn't get any nice tears like I had been, and those are the best parts of the crust for me. Where it tears itself in the rise is where you get a lot of nice maillard reaction and interesting texture.

So this was back up at middle rack and even though I think the dough was a little wet, it did have some of that nice tear I like.
