So the Sainted wife's co-workers wanted Baguettes, but since my Baguette molds are too big for my baking stone I decided to make "mini" Baguettes or Stecca's so they would fit in my DO. Along with a Batard and and a Boule. They are Sourdough with a poolish containing 20% Whole Wheat.

20% Whole Wheat Sourdough (for me)….
Sorry Folks I have been super busy and I let my starter die by mistake. I am still trying to get caught up on all the posts, sorry if I didn't comment.
Anyway, I have a new starter now and this was the first bake from it, one a classic Sourdough, one brushed with Arugala-Basil Pesto, and a Boule.
