If only the iPad would bake the bread and pop the loaf out of the glass while you're traveling by plane--that would truly be the perfect app! And would beat anything that you can readily get on an airplane.Steviehttp://www.weirdcombinations.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30577630.post-80890332309813442802011-02-21T11:58:17.218-05:002011-02-21T11:58:17.218-05:00Waw!!

Now, if there were only an app for aromavision. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing, T.W.~~louise~~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07335196139849995706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30577630.post-74707221197547083702011-02-20T17:40:31.586-05:002011-02-20T17:40:31.586-05:00I need to get that app...that is one lovely boule!...I need to get that app...that is one lovely boule!veronhttp://kitchenmusings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30577630.post-83132547664584359662011-02-19T19:41:45.785-05:002011-02-19T19:41:45.785-05:00I tried to make up my own bread recipes using his ...I tried to make up my own bread recipes using his ratios, but it was a disaster..not sure what I did wrong.

But I certainly appreciate seeing what others turn out. Your loaf looks wonderful. I do love the design the banneton makes. <br /><br />The ratio idea is all well and good and I use it in a few cases (always really old family recipes). But what difference does it make if it's 3 parts something or 3 cups something? All semantics, right?Barbarahttp://www.moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30577630.post-37521232999859473572011-02-16T10:29:57.144-05:002011-02-16T10:29:57.144-05:00I think whatever he's doing it works.

You turned out a perfect loaf... how do you get it out of the banneton so beautifully.. the rings make it spectacular looking.

Slowly but surely the mystery is being stripped from the processes we use to prepare our food. I like a little mystery :-). Your bread looks perfectly prepared. It has crumb and crust and I would imagine the aroma as it bakes can drive men mad. Kudos, kiddo! Have a great evening.

I made my very first Artisan loaf, and it was so easy and delicious. I've been the kind of bowl that you used. You've helped to conquer my fear of diving in and trying it. As for the book you speak about, I've checked it out and found myself scratching my head. I need a recipe. I'm Old School-- but, good for you for trying it out!<br />PS: An iPad...

Ruhlman is an fascinating guy and I've enjoyed reading his books. It would be fun to meet him sometime along of course with the bad boy Bourdain. Now they make a pair.<br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful Valentine's day T.W.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.com
