      ​@@THEHORSELOVER235 Standard electric convection ovens have elements on the top and bottom, and a horizontal fan in the back wall to circulate heat. David's seems to only have upper elements (see 9:34), so they run "hotter" to bring the whole oven to temp faster, causing his bread and toppings to scorch despite following the recipes' directions.

      Actually, autolyse is when you mix just flour and water, nothing else, and let it rest. But the point is still to make it hydrate and gluten is starting to form (which shortens the kneading time). You just don't start the fermentation yet.

    • @RobinCafolla
      @RobinCafolla 3 ปีที่แล้ว +68

      At a guess it's probably the difference in the protein content of the flour. Bread contains so few ingredients that the relative qualities (not quality) of those ingredients takes on a heightened importance. Clare is probably using a higher protein flour or a flour with a higher absorption level than David.

Different flours are labeled differently, that’s why you have all purpose flour, bread flour, cake flour, etc. Different brands wouldn’t vary so drastically they would ruin your recipe.

      I often use the microwave, to house might go in the winter, so there’s no fear of me accidentally turning the oven on. If you put in the microwave you can leave the door open slightly and it turns the light on and then you have a much smaller area heating up more efficient

    Upvote this so he can see it : When you need to proof something at room temperature you can set your oven 2min to 200°C and after that it should be around 40°C, which is ideal for rising doughs, obviously you can use a thermometer to ensure it's not too hot. I'll let you do the conversion to farenheit.

    The reason yours had less bubbles than Joshua’s is that your fridge (or that specific spot in the fridge) was colder than his. The amount of yeast activity is directly correlated with temperature, which is why more bubbles came up as it rested to room temp.
    Lower temp is also probably with the oil got all jello-like!

    It's really interesting to see the difference between your making of Claire's focaccia, as I've made it twice now. The first time, likely because my oven is not correct at 450, so the bottom burned, but my garlic was fine. The second time I changed the temp, and my bottom was a perfect golden colour, and still un-burned garlic. I wonder what caused yours to be like that.

    I'm really glad you had the same experience I did making Claire's recipe. I know she describes it as "batter-like" in the notes in her book. But ... I add an extra 1/4 cup to make it actually workable. I just think her recipe has too much hydration. If you add an additional 1/4 cup, it rises up so much better. My theory is that, because she gets her flour specially milled, she uses a higher gluten flour than KA or Golds.
