Mastering the Art of Sourdough Baguettes: A Step-by-Step Guide for Perfect Crusty Loaves

[@iswearnotme]

Finally got around to baking these with sour dough instead of yeast, as I had previously. The results with the sour dough are excellent - much better than my yeasted rendition. I think, to replicate sour dough using commercial yeast, it would be best to use active dry instead of instant, and use a smaller amount while targeting longer fermentation and proofing times. This recipe with sourdough is really great. I really perfected my steaming method, which has proven difficult in my gas oven (it doesn't like to hold onto steam for very long). Vigorous steam helped the bread spring dramatically. I had to refill my cast iron skillet twice, and spritz the oven with hot water every 2 minutes for the first 12 minutes of the bake. After that, all of the water in the cast iron had evaporated and I reduced the oven temp from 475 to 450 to finish the bake. I also moved the baguettes off of my baking steel and onto an inverted rimmed cookie sheet to stop the bottoms from burning, which had previously been an issue. I think I will have to get one of those Pico + ovens next. Thanks again, Matthew! You're a legend.

[@matthewjamesduffy]

Awesome happy to hear that! Ilike to use a poolish when I make with yeast. Not quite the same but can be good. A hybrid with a very small amount of yeast is great also!

Thanks for your comment! It's just a cheap board I got cut at Home Hardware nothing special!

[@iswearnotme]

Currently experimenting with converting the levain in this recipe to active dry yeast. Replacing the starter and levain ingredients with extra flour and water, and attempting to use 2g of active dry yeast. Temperatures will remain generally consistent with your recipe. Will report back with how this amount of yeast reacts after bulk fermentation and 24 hours in the fridge. Also preparing a batch for which I will skip the fridge fermentation and extend the bulk fermentation at room temp. Curious to see how this impacts flavor and baking. Your baguettes look awesome!

[@iswearnotme]

Update: completed baking on the overnight refrigerated bread. Turned out really great with 2 grams of yeast. I’m an experienced home baker, and I did have to adjust the timing on all fronts to get a great result. It required additional mixing as the dough wasn’t passing the window pane test after 5-10 minutes. I let the dough rest for 10 minutes, and mixed for another 5, at which point I was able to stretch it fairly thin. I then bulk fermented in a warm room for 2 hours, stretching and folding twice. My dough was a bit firmer than the dough in the video, presumably because I neglected to account for the water component of the starter in the leavin, so I was short about 30 grams. After 2 hours in a warm room, and 20 hours in the fridge, the dough had roughly doubled in size and was very smooth and shiny and cohesive. I let it come up to room temp for about an hour before preshaping, which was easily accomplished with this lovely dough. After another 45 minutes of bench resting, I shaped the baguettes attempting to use the method in the video. The dough was still a bit cold and this made shaping relatively difficult. (I’ve shaped and baked hundreds of baguettes using a different method, and this was my first time following these shaping instructions). I let the oven heat up for a full hour to 500f. The baguettes proofed during this time and felt about ready to bake after the hour. Scoring this dough was easy. The mixture was so cohesive and airy that my score marks remained open and didn’t close in on each other. I didn’t angle my blade far enough, so I didn’t get a nice ear, but the scores are effective and aesthetically pleasing nonetheless. I steamed using a preheated cast iron skillet and 2 cups of hot water. The baguettes were baked for 10 minutes at 500f, at which point the water had all steamed off. I dropped the temp to 450f and baked for another 12 minutes. The baguettes came out crackling and beautiful.

Oh hey! I always change and update my process and recipes sorry for the inconsistency there. Usually, I go for about 28°C and do 2 hours bulk. I have found it takes too long to cool down in the fridge when I hit higher temps and longer bulk. The shorter bulk tends to give me a nicer crumb on the final product. That said ALL those temps will still work so don't stress if you don't nail it.

@@matthewjamesduffy as most everyone, I love baguettes. But I feel I am plateauing with the conventional oven. Challenger Bread pan is awesome, but it can only fit height impaired baguettes. The steel is great and produces wonderful oven spring, but presents its own challenges for those that have the heat source coming from the bottom of their ovens. A cookie sheet and foil between the steel and that direct heat helps, but is still far from perfect. I have tried almost everything…..my next idea is to turn off the bottom coil completely for the rest of the bake after loading the baguettes and just use the broil function on low at the 15-20 minute mark. After some research, it appears as if the Simply Oven yields a very well balanced color to loaves and consistency. Looking forward to hearing your review on it!

Hi Matthew, I have hard times trying to have baguettes with open ears like yours and would like to learn how you do it. Although I score with 45 degree angle, my baguettes increase size quickly oven and then the score lines are sealed flat and no ears. You mentioned in the video that you lowered the temperature to 220C at the beginning but no mention for how long for that temperature before increase to higher temperature. Also, the link to your recipe didn't mention about lowering the temperature. Which one is correct? Thanks

Hey Hung thanks for your comment. To answer your question, I lower the oven temperature to 220°C for the first 14-15 minutes until I vent the steam. After that, I increase the temperature to finish baking. However, I should note that the oven temperature and timing can vary depending on the type of oven you have, so it's important to adjust accordingly. This deck oven has great thermal mass and the baguettes get a great oven spring. I hope this helps, good luck with your baguette baking!

[@bettychan1885]

Hi, what does D.D.T. stand for? I've noticed this in your calculator sheet. Thank you.

[@matthewjamesduffy]

There is a full guide and calculator on my site: Often overlooked by restaurants and bakeries, desired dough temperature is your key to achieving consistently perfect sourdough. It is one of the most important fundamental skills a baker can learn. Using proper dough temperatures can instantly improve your baking by giving consistency to your doughs fermentation, flavour and schedules. If your dough is 30°C/85°F one day and 22°C/72°F the next day you can't expect to have consistent results and good sourdough fermentation. In sourdough (and other Artisan Bread) baking we have only a few ingredients and a few factors that will affect our doughs temperature. Room temperature. Flour temperature. The friction factor (see below for description). Temperature of the sourdough preferment. Water temperature - The only real variable we can control from the above list is the water temperature. So to calculate our desired dough temperature water will equal X. We will take our other factors and use them to find our X factor/water temperature.
