Review: Splendid flour: golden, soft crumb, good crust and superb taste - Best flour I have found (and I have tried at least 20) for bread making, including some bought in France (I am French). I use a version of Jim Lahey's method and this produces a golden, tender crumb with an excellent crust. The taste is out of this world, the perfect balance between yeasty and savoury. A reviewer said that because of the additives the flour is not suitable for a long rise: this is not correct. The dough does collapse with an 18h rise but rises again once in the oven. Having said that, it is possible to use the flour with very good result with a shorter rise (7-12h): the taste is a little less pronounced but the rise is slightly better. I won't be using anything else for baguette/bâtard/campagne breads (for Campagne, cut it with 1/5 rye flour). I do not have a bread machine but would imagine that it will do very well so long as the cycle is not too long (otherwise it might over-proof, which isn't a problem with the Lahey method because you shape the bread again but would lead to flatter bread in a machine). PS: my baguette/bâtard recipe: Note that this is a no-knead, very high hydration dough inspired by Jim Lahey's recipe for sourdough. The adaptation works fantastically well for baguette. Also note that it is easiest prepared in a Lekue silicone bread baker (on desertcart, an excellent investment). 2 1/2 cups of Matthews T55, 1 1/4 tsp sea salt crystals (not ground salt), 1/4 tsp (yes, you read correctly, no more) SAF gold yeast (or SAF red but gold gives better flavour), about 35cl water. Mix everything to a very soft dough. The dough will NOT hold together, this is normal. Cover and let rise 17-8h. After 18h, use a dough scraper (not your hands, otherwise you'll be washing them forever) to lift and fold one side the dough on the other. Turn the bowl by a quarter, repeat about 6-8 times. Each folding gives the dough more strength for the rise. Don't overdo it though. The dough still won't hold together, that's required for a soft and flavoursome crumb. Scrape into the Lekue bread baker (check this out on desertcart: these silicone bakers are great. I use 1 for a bâtard, 3 for three thin baguettes), close, cover with a dishcloth and let rise for 45mn. Place on a baking tray and bake 43mn at 235°C in a fan oven for the bâtard, 25mn for the baguettes. Unmold straight away and let cool on a rack. The bread will 'sing' as it cools. Alternatively, bake in a pre-heated cast iron pot as recommended by Lahey. You'll get a bit more rise but it's a lot more faff!
