They used a pipe intead of "I", so weird.

Maybe a bot avoiding detection of duplicate posts?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago

Yeah, | noticed this too.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

Could not unsee it once I did. I’m glad 35 other completely sane and rational people saw it as well.

Proof it was not love but lust for buns

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Not his fault for liking big buns

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But can he lie about it? Can his brothers deny?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

One thing's for sure: his anaconda wants some

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I like big buns and I cannot lie.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

You other bakers can’t deny

I recommend not getting into baking your own sourdough. I started during COVID because we couldn't get bread or even yeast at the store, just 50-pound bags of bread flour online. Now I'm stuck doing the whole process every fucking week because the bread is just so much better than anything you can get at the store.

I agree but my friends keep facilitating my addiction because I always give loaves away and now they've stopped buying bread too. Help 😭

You are like two steps away from turning into a bakery.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Time to open a bakery and start charging.

Once you get into a groove, it's easy to make you sourdough

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, it's not difficult or really time-consuming at all, but it does tie me to the house for a couple of nights in a row whenever I make it, and I have shit to do. I've also started sleeping through my alarms so I've developed a tendency to over-ferment a little bit.

Slow fermentation in the fridge is your friend. For me it's 4-6 hours of bulk ferment then overnight in the fridge.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

My schedule is levain in the afternoon, stretch-and-fold after dinner, bulk ferment to around midnight, proofing in the banettons until around 4 AM, then into the fridge for most of the next day and I bake after dinner. It's that 4 AM alarm that I'm managing to completely ignore lately. An extra hour or two of fermenting isn't fatal, but it does reduce the height of the finished loaf a bit.

In Germany we get high quality Bread in local bakeries. The industrial bread isn't bad, but not comparable to the good ones from a bakery.

There also industrial bakery chains that just heat up frozen dough. Those ones are the worst.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

We can get decent bread at bakeries in the US (sometimes), but it's not like having a process that is fine-tuned to your personal tastes, and even at these places what you buy can be a couple of days old. There's nothing like fresh bread that has just barely cooled off enough to eat.

We have LiDL here, too, and although their bread is just heated-up frozen dough it's still pretty good. Better than anything prepackaged, that's for sure.

Sharing bread is one of the joys of baking it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

A case of yeast antifection.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

That is some nice bread.

He's missing on some delicious buns though

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

The thumbnail looks like the bad Jesus restauration.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

You could've left that loaf like ten minutes more, you go through all that work and forego all the flavor.

The real true love was the sourdough he made along the way.
