Good tip with the temperature of ingredients! Some naive questions about warming up the water: 1) why not use warm tap water? 2) is there less time & energy needed to warm up the water in an oven then using a mixer for 10 more min? (I understand time saving when kneading using hands though)
1) Depending on quality of your boiler warm tap water may contain traces of copper, lead or even (in extreme circumstances) bacteria. 2) I used microwave because I noticed 30s gives me almost exactly what I need and now is just a habit. Kettle would work just as fine. The energy used by pre-heating the ingredients is a little less, but to me the biggest difference is time saved.
Really nice job on this video. The style is great!
