Test Recipe

Toast
Pain L'Ancienne is easily one of my favorite breads. I'm applying this technique (delayed fermentation) to the following... 12 oz flour ( 4 semolina, 8 bread ) 10.2 oz ice water 1 tsp instant yeast 1 1/2 tsp salt I'm interested to see the flavor/texture of this method using the 1/3 semolina flour. I went with 85% hydration figuring the semolina will absorb quite a bit of water. I put it together last night, and it's been de-chilling for about an hour, so I plan to bake in another 2-3 hrs. I'll post pics when it's done. I also have a batch of pain sur poolish going just in case:) KP
Here it is fresh out of the oven. Image hosting by Photobucket I should have let it cool longer, it was a tad moist. Image hosting by Photobucket This bread had a nice nutty, almost sweet taste, and was very simple. Next time I'll try to wait to cut it!
