If you have a scale, then the most accurate and most consistent way to measure flour, and ALL your ingredients, is by weight… not by volume measurements, regardless of which of the two methods you showed.

Hi! Yes! We totally agree with you. We are sensitive that some home cooks don't have a scale and are more comfortable with volume measurements. It is particularly preferable to measure flour by weight for these bread recipes, however. Thanks so much for joining in and for your comment!

The reason you score the loaf - this is done to let the bread spread out and will give good texture. The reason to cool the bread before cutting is that if you don’t wait for the bread to come to room temperature the bread will get kind of doughy in the Center. It will get pretty dense and not nice and light. The bread is still baking the first while after taking it out of the oven

Hi ☺️love your video ! I have a tip to "refresh "?your bread the next day or the next couple of days when your bread gets a little tough. I wet the entire bread with just tap water then place in a pre-heated 350 degree oven as is on the rack for about 10 mins of so , just keep checking for crispness on the crust and when it's done , it will taste and feel just like the first day .

In Britain we always have used weighing scales, not cups. We just tip the flour or other dry ingredients straight into the weighing scale until it balances or tells you digitally that it’s the correct weight. I have long used a vintage weighing scales with cast iron weights.

I started making my own Sourdough in April and I would say that I’m just now starting to make pretty darn good bread. Sourdough is a bit more complicated because of having to make a starter or acquire one and then you need to learn all the steps in order to get a good loaf but it’s so satisfying! I’ve also made other things like my own hotdog and hamburger buns with the “discard” and commercial yeast which also helps with just getting a feel for different doughs and how to handle them and bake them. If you enjoy eating your own bread, Sourdough is definitely a tasty and easy to digest bread. Good luck to you on your baking.

I am a little confused. At the end of the first part the message is “When you’re ready to bake the bread take it out of the refrigerator and let it sit for 45 minutes”. The second part states “What to do is to fold the dough over with some flour for a final short rise for about 30 to 40 minutes. Am I correct that once removed from the fridge to just let it sit for 45 minutes then I do the folds and let it sit for 30-40 minutes?

I’m curious. You’re concerned about flour volume but not so much water temperature. It’s Dec 22, ‘23 here in DFW. Temps outside are in the 60’s. In summer, temps are regularly in the high 90’s. That means 30 degrees difference in water temps. You mention cool versus hot water. Will this variation in faucet water temps make a difference? Inside the house it’s 68 now, in summer, often 75-78.

Hi. I have a question. I have made this bread several times. First was dough made at night and placed in frig. Baked in morning and looked and tasted great. I have tried making dough in morning and leaving on counter 8hrs. several times. It does puff up and smells awesome but spreads out and not holding it's shape and dough slits are difficult to create. Do I need to be adding more flour? This bread recipe is a great improvement from my first attempt at bread making.. It was the size and shape of a red brick!!!!!!! Our friend who owns an amazing bakery and makes all the bread laughed out loud. He asked for it and it was sprayed with shellac and now is their family doorstop......

Thank you for the reply. I have made 4 more loaves. It seems the dough I make before bed and set out in the morning seems to not rise as much and is more loose than the dough I proof on counter for 8 hrs.. The taste is really nice and all my friends are extremely impressed. I think I need to be adding a little more flour when I pull dough together in the bowl. I am a disaster in the kitchen.

I followed your recipe for overnight in the refrigerator but in the morning I noticed the dough had almost no rise at all. How did your dough rise in the frig? Doesn’t yeast need room temperature for dough to rise? I’m going to leave it on the counter to see if it rises a little before placing in Dutch oven.

The dough was still cold when place in oven and it did not look like it proofed well. Where did I go wrong?

So sad. But because of this, I found a much better flour and I've been baking over 40 years so I do know my flour

Hi! Thanks for that question! When we bake bread for a video, we literally bake 4-5 loaves so that we can show all of the stages clearly and ...as you know....the process takes time! When we show a loaf at any time during the process, it may be that we are using a loaf that is a bit further along in the process for the purpose of showing everyone what each step looks like. Rest assured, we are showing a real example of what our loaves look like after they are done! Did you try this bread? It's delicious!
