The stretch and fold technique is called just that, "Stretch and Fold" Autolyse is when you let the dough rest for a bit after the initial mixing before kneading to let the dough fully hydrate.

[@lyn1896]

Actually, autolyse is when you mix just flour and water, nothing else, and let it rest. But the point is still to make it hydrate and gluten is starting to form (which shortens the kneading time). You just don't start the fermentation yet.

My house stays cold too- hot tip: put your dough in the oven to rise with the oven OFF but the oven light on-creates just enough warmth to help out with a rise 🤗

[@ioanaprodescu7024]

Great ideea! I usually put the dough in the turned off oven with a small bowl of nearly boiling water next to the bowl of dough and it rises well

[@emilyesnyman]

I often use the microwave, to house might go in the winter, so there’s no fear of me accidentally turning the oven on. If you put in the microwave you can leave the door open slightly and it turns the light on and then you have a much smaller area heating up more efficient

[@EksNiHil0]

Upvote this so he can see it : When you need to proof something at room temperature you can set your oven 2min to 200°C and after that it should be around 40°C, which is ideal for rising doughs, obviously you can use a thermometer to ensure it's not too hot. I'll let you do the conversion to farenheit.

You had the same moisture problem with claire's krispy kreme donuts in the past. It seems like for some reason they're not calibrated correctly for your environment

[@RobinCafolla]

At a guess it's probably the difference in the protein content of the flour. Bread contains so few ingredients that the relative qualities (not quality) of those ingredients takes on a heightened importance. Clare is probably using a higher protein flour or a flour with a higher absorption level than David.

[@Hannah-zw9ow]

@@RobinCafolla I doubt it. Different flours are labeled differently, that’s why you have all purpose flour, bread flour, cake flour, etc. Different brands wouldn’t vary so drastically they would ruin your recipe. It’s more likely he lives in an environment extremely different to hers. He mentioned his house is always cold, that’s a huge factor in baking. He could also be in a more or less humid environment or at a different altitude.

[@RobinCafolla]

@@Hannah-zw9ow Bread flour can come with anywhere between 11.5% and 15% protein, depending on the brand and where you are in the world, and that percentage will make a big difference to moisture absorption. You're right about the temp and humidity effecting his baking; but it shouldn't make that big a difference specifically in regards to the moisture absorption.

[@declanbrown2246]

I love Claire’s one, I’ve made it a few times but doing it exactly as it says in the book for me yields results exactly like the ones seen here. Personally I take out the garlic as it definitely burns, and use a stone towards the end to crisp up the bottom

[@Kokeshiflower]

Which recipe do you recommend?

[@Stainlesssteele4]

It seems like your oven's elements are pretty hot, which led to almost all of them getting scorched. Probably wanna keep the racks much lower

[@notestasiskis]

I was looking for this comment. If everything's coming out charred, maybe it's not the recipes, it's the oven.

[@THEHORSELOVER235]

Lower? The heat comes from the bottom

[@Stainlesssteele4]

​@@THEHORSELOVER235 Standard electric convection ovens have elements on the top and bottom, and a horizontal fan in the back wall to circulate heat. David's seems to only have upper elements (see 9:34), so they run "hotter" to bring the whole oven to temp faster, causing his bread and toppings to scorch despite following the recipes' directions.

[@Stainlesssteele4]

*or rather a shielded, hidden bottom element

[@kortenmary]

@@THEHORSELOVER235 if the top is getting scorched the heat from the top of the oven can also scorch. Even if the heat comes from the bottom. If you have your dish close to any sides/bottom/top that area will always run hotter than if you leave it in the middle away from all walls.

[@Margar02]

The reason yours had less bubbles than Joshua’s is that your fridge (or that specific spot in the fridge) was colder than his. The amount of yeast activity is directly correlated with temperature, which is why more bubbles came up as it rested to room temp. Lower temp is also probably with the oil got all jello-like!

I've done babish recipe several times and have added garlic 2 different ways into the same bread mixture.

I add an extra 1/4 cup to make it actually workable. I just think her recipe has too much hydration. If you add an additional 1/4 cup, it rises up so much better.

I finished binge watching some of your videos. The ones I haven’t seen before

[@frgwyn3760]

You know ur cooking career successful when David reviews ur recipe

[@lucysrz3496]

i don't think you followed claire's recipe correctly, the second time you knead the dough is not supposed to be that wet if you watch her video it has to pull away from the sides of the bowl

He did say he measured everything, so it might have something to do with different ambiance humidity levels I guess

[@lucysrz3496]

@@anelecky humidity probably had a lot to do with it, but i don't think measuring has anything to do with kneading. it just needed more time in the mixer

@@lucysrz3496 he said he mixed it for 18 minutes, it's obvious that the hydration is just too high for his flour. At those hydration levels the different gluten levels in brands of flour will make a difference.

Really wanted to see Ethan Chlebowski’s recipe here :c

[@nadinea1125]

Claire’s focaccia has been my go to I’m making it on a weekly basis! Definitely try again- the garlic does get really brown though, so I skip it usually or use garlic oil

[@sammulhall]

I’d love to see you test out Alvin’s 100 hour brownies

[@31337ification]

For claires one. I reckon if you confit some garlic that would give you garlic oil you could use instead of regular oil. then at the very very end (literally last 2-3 mins) sprinkle on some garlic slices

Latest TikTok trends: baked feta pasta, cremora tart, vegan chicken (homemade seitan) with the washed flour method

[@1anastudent]

When you want dough to rise put it in a warm place. I recommend on top of the refrigerator. It's the warmest place in the kitchen

Please keep doing Claire's recipes!!!
