Oven disaster
I had a good bake Saturday morning, but I ruined my oven in the process.
I was making two 1.5 pound loaves of hearth whole-wheat sourdough, and two more of the same, but sandwich bread. I was just ready to put the boules in, so I stuffed two oven mitts wrapped in aluminum foil into the vents to trap the steam. I put the boules onto the stone, poured two cups of boiling water into the steam pan and shut the door.
The steam, alas, found a way out -- right up through the digital readout and computer controls for my gas oven. The display started to blink in and out.
