    It's great you are exploring this for folk.
    Here is a little more information.
    Why ferment some of the flour over a longer period with a poolish? It develops more flavour.
    A poolish only long ferments a little flour. Cold proofing in the fridge long ferments all of the flour and you get more flavour still. It is a commericial cheat technique not required in home baking. See below.
    Good bread flavour comes from the acid made during fermentation reacting with the alcohol made by the yeast. This reaction is slow, so long fermentation times give better flavour. So using smaller amounts of yeast and longer bulk fermentation times gives better bread flavour. Commercial bakers try to cheat by only fermenting a little of the bread slowly. That is what the poolish is. Slow worktop fermentation followed by cold proofing in the fridge gives the best bread flavour from yeast.
    Yeast does not produce much in the way of acids, even with long fermentation. So it will always develop much poorer bread flavour compared to a sourdough loaf. Sourdough has lactobacillus in them. They produce more acids and thus better bread flavour.
    Sourdough bread need not be sour. In the U.S. a sour sourdough is generally preferred. In Italy France and the U.K. Sourdough breads are not sour and sourness is seen as a fault. Italians with their Massa Madre go to great lengths not too have sour bread. The French call sourdough Levaine Naturelle. In English I call them Natural Leaven. Sadly the American Sourdough term comes to dominate and people think sourdough bread is sour.
    I hope this is useful to someone.
    Thanks for the video.

      Thanks Kevin I have been experimenting with Poolish now for 2 years.
      I never used to add yeast to it . I just treated it like a sourdough.. I knew nothing at the time ..
      But learned by trial. I will tell you the flavor my breads had were incredible.
      Lately I have been making Poolish with a pinch of yeast and it's not the same but I have been leaving a small percentage in the tub to age it as I process future batches and plan on not adding any more yeast to it to get back to the flavor it should have.
      Time and cold temp ❄️ 🥶 should give the dough what it needs to mature into the perfect taste and good body.

      Thank you that is very kind of you.
      I see some baking channels are suggesting using old dough (Pâte Fermentée) as an easy way to get into natural leavens. They start off with a bit of yeasted dough, but over a few uses the lactobacillus builds up in the old dough and much better flavour results, just like natural leavens.
      I look at bread TH-cam channels from time to time to see what is going on in the world
      You do your channel very nicely.

    As a home baker I have not graduated to using sourdough starter just yet. I have just not found a need. I almost always use an 8-24 hour poolish and a 18-30 hour cold bulk fermentation. Of course I make different breads with different percentages and processes. I am making and enjoying the best breads I've ever had. I'm here watching your video so I expect eventually I'll get a starter going. Thanks for the video...

    Nice comparison and I agree SD starter is a preferment similar to a 12-hour biga or poolish. The only factor not tested is how much more flavor might develop by cold fermenting the sd overnight.

    I just started baking bread a couple of months ago. I must have missed the covid fad of sourdough as I only learned about it after starting with Poolish. I've since started a sourdough starter that is just about ready for my first attempt. Poolish has been a great introduction and practice, but i'm really looking forward to seeing what I can do with Sourdough. Either way it's been a great meditative destress from the work day.

    Why don’t we punch down dough anymore? Why is everything online these days “no knead” and constantly stretching/folding dough?
    Is there anything wrong if I made the polish bread but after mixing the dough, knead it for a few minutes then let it proof for a couple hours, then punch it down and let it proof again, then punch it down and shape it, finally proof again and bake?
    This is how I baked bread at a high end French restaurant 30 years ago. I haven’t baked bread since then but all the recipes include these stretches and folds and things.
    Thanks! Great video!

      Why not if you bake lower hydration the dough is more handlable and you can knead it punch it down , why no knead ? First thing first is mostly for home bakers who don’t have experience that much and make it easier for them secondly they can bake very high hydration dough with minimum effort the result is a softer crumb which is lighter and airier but yes of course kneading it make it even easier ✌🏼 since you are a experienced baker 👍 thanks for the comment and watching my channel 🙏

    It is not really sourdough bread with such a short ferment, instead it is just natural yeasted bread vs commercial yeasted bread. The difference being that the commercial yeast is selected for specific traits and there is less variety of yeasts in it. The bacteria that generate the sourness prefers cold and develop better in a slow cold ferment overnight.
