Japanese Milk Bread, Part II:

... and because it's all about the crumb:

[Richard Chrz]

nailed it!

[RonB]

Great job fer sure!

[treesmacker]

Oh, that last pic! 😋

[Richard Chrz]

I love the build up to bake day, just as much as the bake,

[Richard Chrz]

Sorry, you get two more days of bread photos. 😜 Kills me to not cut open these loaves.I may have to make myself a loaf this weekend. Playing with some flour for tomorrow’s bakes.

[MBMorgan]

🔟😎👍

[Richard Chrz]

Yesterday’s and today’s loaves.

[Richard Chrz]

Finally made one for my wife and I. It’s been to long since I’ve cut one open for myself.

[RonB]

I don't know how anyone could do any better. 👌

[SheilaAnn]

We finally get to see some crumb!!

[treesmacker]

RonB me either!

My first attempt at some sourdough kaiser rolls... I made my own kaiser roll stamp with my 3D printer.

Well, that answers my question from SUWYC! Again, awesome!

[Richard Chrz]

Thank you so much dough press/stamp? , it came in the mail yesterday, I can not wait to try it out. Those buns look incredible I need to spend some time learning those!

In the bread biz, that is call a "Docker".

Here is another item I made with 3D printer... bread lame; I didn't want to pay the price online (though it probably cost me 100x that if you add up all of my costs - kinda like the cost of catching a trout).

[Richard Chrz]

I’ll chip in for one of these. Such cool stuff!

I let my sourdough starter die maybe a year ago. But as Cam Newton said recently, "I’m baaaack!"

This is my third loaf. The other two were delicious. I made some long awaited croutons which are my kids favorite. (No pictures)

But here is my third and most recent loaf!

Stenciling is fun!! 🦃

[RonB]

I bet you gobbled that down.

I've had a sourdough starter over 10 years now and bake two loaves of Tartine style bread weekly. Now my daughter wants me to make a gluten free sourdough bread. I have tried three times to make a starter with Bob's Red Mill gluten free 1 to 1 flour, unsuccessfully. Any hints would be appreciated.

[Richard Chrz]

This mornings bakes and yesterday’s bakes. Have two loaves of cranberry and walnut going right now for tomorrow’s bakes,

[Richard Chrz]

I know, I know, another photo of the same looking bread, lol.

[Richard Chrz]

This mornings bakes. Making two more loaves today of cranberry walnut, sourdough.

[RickyBobby]

I haven’t made any sourdough in quite awhile. I wasn’t super successful before in the aesthetic category, but the crumb, crust, and flavor were on point. Time to get back on the horse! Going to make some up for tomorrow! Wish me luck! I’ll post my results.

[RonB]

Shaping takes practice - lots of practice, (and I still need more). I do like the way this guy teaches it:

[RickyBobby]

Thanks for the video RonB, I’ve seen him before and I agree, I like his presentation.

[Richard Chrz]

My contribution to family thanksgiving gathering tomorrow. Well, the whiskey is staying here, (my dad has a better collection, drink his!). The bread is a Cranberry Walnut fully loaded recipe I am working on.

[RickyBobby]

Here are the two loaves I baked up this morning! I used a different recipe this time. Looks good, but I think I will adjust to add more starter because it’s not as sour as my last one. Still good, but I like the sour punch.

[Thunder77]

Very nice!

Do you bake in a Dutch oven?
