DOUGH: BASIC WHITE DOUGH

[@Nice_Fella]

1000g flour 30g fresh yeast or 10g instant yeast or 12 to 15g of active yeast 20g salt 700g of room temperature water Weigh the water in case of temperature or atmospheric changes that can slightly affect the amount of water in a millilitre measurement. This is for 70% hydration bread (1000g flour / 700g water) (From the comments on another version of this video)

[@ImForgivenToo]

Nice fella........THANK YOU !!!!!!! 😊

[@hollyedwards1396]

He adds sugar, also. Maybe 1T?

[@en2oh]

don't forget. For most kitchen scales, the smaller the amount to be weighed, the less accurate it becomes. (trying to measure 10 grams by adding it to a kilogram of flour is very likely to be more than 10g.) Get a small cup, tare it and measure 10g.... much more accurate. For practical purposes, 1ml of water weighs 1gm. The hard part of volumetric measures with liquids is reading the meniscus... IE the level at the top!

[@newbie2guitar]

​@@hollyedwards1396 at 1:40 he says he doesn't mix the yeast with water and sugar. Just the yeast, flour, salt, and water.

[@junesugrue6208]

He says in his own comments NO sugar don't need it....

[@Ascensiion1]

I call you Professor when I watch your lessons. I have learnt to make bread through you. They say bread is life and that is true on so many levels. My thanks and appreciation Sir! Now back to another lesson...I'm forever learning.

[@jillcrook4481]

Memories of a lovely days course at the Bertinet Bakery School in Bath last year. Comments on my bread after being Bertinet'ed were 'what happened?!', 'outstanding improvement' :-) the magic of Monsieur Bertinet. Thank you Richard.

[@bhuvidya]

He's so great - and I've learnt lots just by watching his videos. He is a great teacher.

[@kevinu.k.7042]

Tremendous video - An enjoyable watch. I did smile a little though at the comments about British baking. Richard was referring to the way my mother used to bake back in the 1970's. Many British folk haven't kneaded like that for over thirty years and yes, it was the old French Boulanger Paysan methods which came to the fore. So too did the use of natural leavens which sadly Richard does not seem to use. Anyway Richard, I always recommend your videos to others for the excellent dough handling. Thank you for all you have taught me over the years.

[@onetrue217]

I discovered Richard a few years back and have baked many items from his book Dough. May I ask, what do you mean by ‘natural levain’? He does use biga, fermented doughs and sourdough in his other books, Crumb and Crust. He really does handle the dough so well doesn’t he? Cheers

[@kevinu.k.7042]

@@onetrue217 Apologies, Natural Leaven is what the Americans call sourdough. The problem with the term sourdough is that it implies the dough is sour. In France and Italy and amongst many in the UK a sour bread is seen as a poor loaf. Hence in France the term is 'levain naturel'. American dominance of social media in the English language has led to the adoption of their term. FWIW Americans *generally* like their naturally leavened bread very sour. Thanks for the heads up about his books. I've read both. As a quick intro to naturally leavened baking Crumb and crust is OK. No depth though. However as someone who tutors advanced baking I'm in a different space to many home bakers. I will be for ever grateful to Richard for introducing me to slap and fold kneading. A very old French techniques and the fastest way to develop gluten by hand. The 'slap' actually breaks the intial weak gluten bonds allowing the stronger sulphur sulphur bonds to take their place. Best of baking to you!

Made it today 27 Jul 2023 #NZT. Use to work with wet doughs, and specially #pizza (Neapolitan style), which are starting to have higher hydration (70%) compared to the old days (60-65%). Usually a bit messy and the tendemcy to have flour everywhere (included in the Dough). This method w/o machine just brilliant. Thank you #Chef from NZL.

[@yolindao5893]

Finally I found someone to explain it from scratch! I watched tons of videos “ it take just ten minutos” but it was not true if you do not have the right technique. Thanks 🙏🏼

[@colleengarcia4886]

Thank you for the teaching. You are very talented and I appreciate watching your videos.

[@penguin0101]

I listen to you to go to bed. I dont even need to watch the video, you voice… and the activity… so soothing, puts me to bed

[@VE7QRZ]

Wow! Thank you for this video. I came across a demonstration of your technique a few weeks ago. Tried it, and well, yes, very nice. I have enough experience now to appreciate what your are saying and demonstration. So much easier to make and work the dough. Good prep = good results, and a good hard flour helps👌

[@johndudash2579]

Did it finally ! Been stuck in wheat flourville ,is so nice to get back to the basic white loaf with white bread flour, just had a piece, rose well , tasted fantastic, followed Mr. Bertinet’s method, Voila!

[@MikeWinger]

Thanks! I’m making this today, just waiting for the final proving and in the oven for some baguettes!

[@shauleen]

Oh wow... 🖐🏾 lovely seeing you here Mike! 💜💜💜 your work, if you or your family are ever in England, a day course at Bertinet's Kitchen is well worth it!

[@idahogal4675]

Beautiful. Such talent 🙂

[@michellecasmith8010]

I love your method it’s not failed me yet and so delicious 😋 thank you for sharing your skills it’s really helpful for this beginner

[@twne8336]

Hi Richard. Thanks for your tutorial. Can you give some advice on using dough from fridge please (i.e. shall I let it return to room temp?). Thank you. BTW I made your Tarte Tropézienne last week. Was amazing. My filling/custard was poorly executed though - too runny. We still ate it all. Delicious. Cheers

[@edithharmer1326]

Excellent Tutorial, Educational, Thank you for sharing, Greetings from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia🌹🌹🌹 Edith, a happy Subcriber

[@jacysh]

Amazing skills. 👍🏻

[@JeanCSchmidt]

Great receppi, thanks very much 🇧🇷

[@mariarugolo2487]

What a wonderful teacher and instruction. Does anyone know the oven temperature? For the recipe, based on another video of Bertinet, the basic recipe is 1kg equals (1,000g) bread flour, 720 ml water, 20g fresh or dry yeast, and 20g sea salt. Always fully incorporate yeast into flour first, then add salt and then water. If only i knew the oven temp and bake time.

[@kwkarol]

250C, bake for 10 minutes, then again for another 8-10 minutes to get crispy crust. He also uses a spray bottle to mist the oven once he puts the dough in. Always pre-heated oven

Und ersetzt das Sportstudio.Klasse!

[@matthewjacobs141]

Just a hint...You need a higher workstation OR make a hole to stand in😃

[@borhotkaar3480]

I love this method

[@lilyjackleonardo6779]

Thank you,,,I like your video

[@sharontjaden1150]

Can I make the dough, bring it together and then refrigerate overnight or for use at a later stage?

[@zashuiva7324]

"The british method of making bread" ahahahha

[@Bettina_endelt]

I love it😊

[@gobear83]

Sorry did I miss what temperature and how long to cook it ?

[@pedropaulodepra857]

Richard, please, How Can I discover the hidration capacity of a flour?

[@9mmTXn]

Im not sure what happened with my dough. I used the following... 964g King Arthur AP flour 36g Red Mill gluten flour (for STRONG flour or 14% protien) 20g yeast 20g salt 700g room temp water When this came together, I had to knead it. The slap and fold technique wouldn't work. It wouldn't stretch as expected. Absolutely no extra flour was used. Any ideas?

[@TheresiaHandayani-e4s]

Dalam adonan puff pastry.. penggunaan lemon juice apakah bisa diganti dengan white / apple vinegar?

[@fabianherbst8997]

[@joellelugo7587]
