Today is baking day! I ended up with thirteen loaves in total.

Now that's plenty of breads!

I'm feeling better today, did the weekly shopping (and had to go back to pick up few missing items.) It's Midsommar, so I have been cleaningthe house a bit and washing few loads of laundry, tomorrow we'll heat up the grill and enjoy some (alc-free) beers. I'm preparing stuff for that too, marinades and so on. It's nice. Lots of mosquitoes tho.

13 loaves?

That's a ludicrous amount of bread. Are you secretly a duck?

[–] Lexam@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

No. No of course not. Who have you been talking to?

It’s just a classic baker’s dozen, don’t worry about it

Went snack shopping with the girlfriend yesterday because tomorrow we're going to watch big sailboats (Sail GP F50) go nearly 100km/h! (I like sailboats)

Made pizza with my gf yesterday. Don't know what went wrong but the second of the 3 pizzas was way too thick in the middle

[–] Lexam@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Keep making more!

Protip: parbake your pizza crusts! Then you can load them up with cheese but avoid doughy middles

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Parbake?

The pizza was still great just a bit fat

[–] pedantichedgehog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Mostly cook it, so that you can cook it again after adding toppings.

From wikipedia: Parbaking (also known as part-baked in the UK) is a cooking technique in which a bread or dough product is partially baked and then rapidly frozen for storage or assembled into a final product.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So you say hal bake it then freeze it and full bake it later? Or just the same without freezing it inbetween?

[–] pedantichedgehog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Freezing is optional. For pizzas, the real benefit is that you don't try to cook both the dough and cheese at once. In my experience it's easier than trying to balance cooking the dough fully without burning the cheese

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I never really had issue with the dough cooking and the cheese burning so IDK

[–] pedantichedgehog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

May not be worth the effort in your case. Ymmv. I've had undercooked middles enough that I prefer to parbake the crust before adding toppings.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I've been using a pizza stone and just cranking rhe oven as high as it goes an no issues.

Event yesterday was good. I think I made a good contact for a new job thats inline with what I'm looking for. Won't know for a week or so if I get called in.

So do you have a family of starters? And what are their names?

Just one. Betty White.
