[@stevenliss6220]

You included timestamps for the different cuts! You're an example to us all.

[@Foodgeek]

Thank you ❤️

[@PhoneAGraham]

This is how every video should be

[@deathless3518]

I love how you’re really good at scoring but really bad at setting the hot bread down

[@Foodgeek]

You gotta choose your battles 🤣😂

[@KhadirBek]

So funny. I was thinking the same thing. Someone get this guy some rubber stops! Beautiful bread! So cool!

[@jenneferwillard7758]

I was wondering why he seemed to be struggling, then I saw the cast iron. Lol. Yeahhhh, same struggle bus.

[@lenkakralikova1457]

"when something doesn't turn out the way you want, it's not a failure, it's a learning experience" i felt that

[@jaydee4367]

Honestly, this is the best 19 minutes I've spent watching a video probably ever. Just made my first loaf of sourdough ever yesterday. Thanks.

[@goddessofgreen1]

Congrats! I have one in the oven myself. Its so much fun!

[@liljanam870]

How did it come out?

[@jaydee4367]

@@liljanam870 I'm getting there. Trying to get the right % mix of water to flour. Ordered a scale off Amazon. Hoping that helps take some guesswork out of it. Even the ones that don't turn out perfect taste great though.

[@markeetaroane3]

I agree! so informative

[@gungfoomon7729]

Back in the day, every family had their own way to score their bread. It was a simple way to be sure which bread belongs to whom after baking it at the village baking house, as several families would bake there at the same day, using the same oven. Families that had their own oven didn't (need to) score their bread before baking.

[@Foodgeek]

That makes a lot of sense 😊

[@MarySanchez-qk3hp]

There's a village in Mexico, I believe, that uses a communal solar oven called a panaderia solaria. They make individual marks to tell the loaves apart. In old Europe, women would utilize the residual heat of the baker's oven to cook their stews overnight, and each was given a little copper tag that matched the one on their cassoulette... put them in on Friday before sunset, pick it up Saturday evening. I need to see what you suggest about humidity in a home oven... I've seen other videos already. My oven is ancient, electric and as old as my rental house, generally I put a pan of boiling water on a lower shelf when making instant yeast breads, and also spray a few times... but there are times when I've just tossed in some ice cubes and closed the oven door. And for boules... I use my Le Creuset Dutch oven with the lid and parchment paper, removing the lid after it's risen, to brown it more.

[@latelierdegash5663]

For the batard the score's name is " saucisson"😉

[@BreeCrutch]

😂😂😂 Watching you, the bread, and the wire rack trying to come to a happy medium was hilarious 😂😂😂 Loved the tutorial!

[@lexdemonica]

Made my starter 4 days ago and have already fallen in love with my colony and named it The Yeasty Boys. Thank you for all the information and inspiration.

[@feilimbreatnach8349]

Kudos at the amount of effort that you must have put into this video! That is a lot of breads & scores to get through, I learned some nice new ones thanks!

[@Foodgeek]

Thanks 😀 They were all delicious so it paid off in the other end. It's the most bread I've made in 3 days 😂

[@aimeefrance9711]

I like how in the intro he stands in front of all of his guitars. Rockstar energy

[@Foodgeek]

🎸🤟🤟🎸

[@lindsaymeeks6309]

And every video he does has a different set of guitars! Do you have a video of all your guitars? Or multiple ones? Acoustic, electric, resonators..

[@susanc3519]

And I love the music on the video too 🎶

[@katemccracking4100]

I’ve been making sourdough bread for 4 years now. You have definitely upped my game. Your contrast is so good. But, you make it look so easy! Thanks for a very informative video. You’re a great teacher.

[@madferret2045]

Someone with a gretsch tremolo telecaster seems like the type of guy who would make a 20 minute mini documentary on scoring artisanal sourdough, great video.

[@Foodgeek]

Yes, exactly 🤣 It's a Bigsby tremolo on the Tele 😁

[@holg3070]

Thank you for taking the time to produce this. It also it might help if you put a silicone mat or towel under the cooling rack !

It's always so heartening to see someone so passionate about something, and then see them execute on a video so wonderfully. Thank you for the step by step, this was awesome :)

[@50sRockChick]

Very helpful. My 11yo is doing a course on bread and for a prize she was given a låme. She’s going to have fun trying these. Thank you.

[@ctcollinthib]

The spring on these loaves is really something!

[@Foodgeek]

It was even done with my overnight no-knead recept ;)

[@fallingsaints]

Love all the timestamps on the video. Definitely one that I will be saving and referring back to all the time. Thank you!

[@kimberlyv1205]

I love both the boule and the batard with the wheat stalks. Using the twine to make guide lines is genius! Thanks for the inspiration! :)

[@Foodgeek]

You're very welcome

[@SandiHooper]

Thank you, Sune! I just made the most beautiful loaf with your master loaf scored with your yin Yang and wheat sheafs. I’ve learned more from your videos in the past two months than I have in the two years I’ve worked on this during the pandemic. I’m joining your Patreon group NOW.

[@virginiabarrios2228]

I love how we can see how much you have developed as a presenter when compared to your more recent videos. I’ve recently started using your recipe after messing up my old recipe way too many times. So far so good, thank you for being so geeky and precise.

[@zerowastecalifornia]

This was so fun to watch. All my designs seem to get lost in the oven rise. But I will keep trying!

[@nailkitty]

Sooooooo much bread! Leaf on the boule and classic french saucisson on the batard were my favourites.

[@kmbrpower]

I watch this clip so often, and every time I want to run into the kitchen with him and help him set that bread down, as beautifully and evenly as he scores his bread. Came for the score, stayed for the comments. Thanks @foodgeek

[@adakhochalai]

This kind of video which are long and involve the baker speaking really helps us learn unlike the short montage videos with fancy music alone. Brilliant video

[@pauldelcastillo2697]

Thank you for the inspiration. Your work is beautiful. Makes me want to jump in and try these techniques!

[@robyngrosjean2885]

Bravo! Why did it take me 2 years to find your channel, but glad I did.

[@rlwalker2]

Amazing tutorial. A lot of slipping and sliding going on after the bread is baked. I agree. No failures. Besides, the evidence will be eaten in a short time.

[@DANVIIL]

Brilliant video!!! I really look forward to trying out these scoring techniques. The music seems like a take on Wes Montgomery who I happened to see when I lived in a big east coast city in the USA. Excellent choice of music on all of your videos. Now I'm on to making my sourdough starter and trying out some of your recipes. Thanks for all that you do!!

Loved the video, did chuckle at getting the bread onto the racks, struggled a lot 😀 trying some of these for sure

Many have commented on how you handle the bread out of the oven. I'd like to share a tip...I use a wooden spatula with a fat end to scoop up the bread with ease. Great videos by the way, love the attention to detail.

God morgen fra Rio de Janeiro, hvor jeg er ny til sourdough bread og lige skulle finde en måde at score mine to brød. Det var hyggeligt at høre min egen accent, og nu er mine brød i ovnen med dine snit. Tak for hjælpen!

[@oliviaebertz9544]

i usually use my fish spat to transfer my bread to the cooling rack... obviously i need to invest in some giant clunky oven mitts instead!

[@Foodgeek]

They are the best... At keeping my hands safe 🤣

[@escott5839]

Excellent and encouraging video. I find scoring easy when the dough comes out of the fridge. But some recipes suggest removing the shaped dough from the fridge and allowing it to set at room temp for 3 to 4 hours, then score. Scoring is difficult after a few hours, so what is better: scoring and baking from the fridge or allowing it to be set at room temperature before scoring and baking?

[@pokiishere-sebastian2126]

Such an awesome video!! Must have been a huge effort to make this... So glad I found your awesome channel! ☺️

[@anupapanjabi401]

Fabulous tutorial - thank you! I'm a 48 year old entrepreneur and should be concerned about how my business is going to survive the global lockdown. Yet what's going to keep me up tonight is worrying about what score pattern to try tomorrow morning on the 2 boules currently retarding in the fridge (your recipe, of course).

[@anapaulaleandro9589]

Thank you so much for your artistic designs. Bread is bread but a sourdough bread that has received that final artistic touch is a work of art . I’ve got to practice a lot.🇨🇦

[@SteveBuffel]

I noticed that longer proofing times create a drier outer skin on the dough. Fast and warm final proofing times leave my dough very soft and the cuts turn into smooth dark zones without ears. Maybe a worthwhile experiment you'd consider doing? Love your channel!

[@libradolafontaine411]

Thank You I got my lame recently wasn't sure what patterns to do Love The Tenacious D Shirt

[@royallclark6331]

you make that look so easy! I know.... practice, practice, practice!

[@richardf6932]

I did find that for the batard, if the dough is high hydration and I do a center cut, the final product is more spread out and flat. I ended up doing the classic French cut (3 cross cuts), which helps retain the shape a bit better. Thank you for the videos and examples of the different cuts

[@andread9807]

Woah u like tenacious d, play guitar AND make bread?!? That’s a top man right there.

[@pauli1968]

Very cool! My dough is too gloopy/sticky to do this! So I just score it once with my razor lame! I actually have to score it by digging into it. The recipe I’ve been following is with a dough with 75% hydration! 520g strong white flour including a little rye flour, 90g sourdough starter, salt, a sprinkle of bread yeast and 385g warm water. Your dough just looks so perfect.

I've been baking sourdough professionally for over a decade. I don't use a lame. I found that there are inexpensive, serrated non-stick tomato knives that do the job better on tender, high-hydration doughs.
