My first baguette

Profile picture for user inumeridiieri

I try to bake my first bageutte. Knead with Trevor's strech and scope method ( great technique )

Poolish

Sourdough 60 g 

Flour 100 g

Water 100 g

Wheat flour 500 g

Water 320 g

Salt 12 g

Sugar 3 g

Poolish matured for 9/10 hours

Bulk fermentation 1 hour final proofing fifty minutes...It has to rise even more. Opinions and tips?

Also the socket shows under proofing...

 

... very good!  The crumb on mine look identical, by comparison, but I like mine baked a bit darker - personal preference.  Pat yourself on the back and you'll feel a bit of mine there too, KUDOS!

So far I have never done baguettes but I hope my first ones will be baked before Christmas. Yours just look great and especially for the first time.

Happy baking, Joze
