/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Don't leave it for too long and learn to cook it longer if it needs to

also your dutch oven might be smaller than the dutch oven your recipe is using

>>17758980
My dutch oven is a lot bigger. This is the recipe I tried
https://youtu.be/WpGFpRdsAfg

Not leaving it for too long means the dough right?
Cooking it longer is something I want to try but my first attempt had a big mistake so I want to make it properly by the recipe before I change things

>>17758991
Yeah, if it was "too yeasty" then you probably let it proof too long

also it shouldn't really be all that wet so you might've left it in an area with too much humidity or something?

>mythical no-knead dutch oven breads
Kneading is so fucking easy. My daughter learned to do it at age 6 or so. Why the fuck does it filter so many people ?

>>17758994
Makes sense about the yeastiness. I just left it in the oven for 24 hours. It's wet as in undercooked. It feels more like a heavy bread pudding than a proper fluffy bread.
Do you know any legit youtube recipes that might work better?

>>17759007
Dude it's fucking awful. Last time I tried to make brioche the dough fucking adhered to my hand and I couldn't get it off. Every moment of it was unpleasant for me, and the bread didn't come out breadish at all.
Credible-sounding people on /ck/ say they don't even use their standmixers to knead dough for bread, but otherwise seems impossible.
Maybe though I'm just a retard making assumptions only after 1 botched attempt

>>17759013
Yeah, the recipe I use is 12-18 hour proof max.

I usually make it in the late afternoon or early evening then bake it the next morning.

>>17759025
You'll learn in time how to work your hands to make the dough not stick as much. You have to learn broheim. You didn't automatically understand how to ride a bike you know.

>>17759043
Besides the yeast, that's about the same recipe as most salty breads.

>>17759043
That's very similar to that youtube link, aside from the longer rising time and her using 420f instead of 450.
I guess I should try it some more. Do you do the parchment paper trick? Is it a pain to clean the pot afterwards if you didn't?

>>17758938
Watch people that actually know what they're doing.

>Do you do the parchment paper trick? Is it a pain to clean the pot afterwards if you didn't?
I used cornmeal and a bit of flour on the bottom and no parchment and it worked fine

Dutch ovens are piss easy to clean generally.

don't knead them

>>17758938
Try leaving just the flour/water dough in the fridge overnight. Then add the yeast and salt in afterwards and wait again, since they inhibit autolysis.

Also, a lot of people make the big mistake of not pre-heating the shit out of their dutch oven. Leave it in the oven for like 30-60 minutes on the highest setting. If you have a infrared thermometer, make sure your dutch oven actually reads the temperature you have your oven set to.

>>17759079
Why do you faggots get so caught up in little details? It's fucking no knead bread. I can make it without even trying. Have you all considered, that you're trying to hard. Or that you're just retarded. Making a 1 percent change or less than in the amount of flour or something else, isn't what's stopping you from making it work. I don't even use a measuring cup or spoons and my bread comes out perfect every time. Learn how to fucking cook.

>>17759103
Good for you pal. Do you want a medal?

>>17759066
Look great. A little more work, but I'll try it

>>17759119
Looks* even. I've got a bad keyboard.
What's the sunflower seeds for? Put them in the dough mixture or outside on the crust as decoration?

>>17759117
I'm trying to tell you that you need to fucking practice and stop thinking too much. How is that so hard to accept?

>>17759133
I don't need to practice shit. My bread comes out great every time.

>Just do it better
Your advice is unhelpful and you're an asshole.

>>17759164
If you follow a no knead recipe, and your new, and it doesn't come out right, it isn't the recipe. Now stop trying to keep newbies in tutorial purgatory cause you run a food blog and you need traffic for your very non-unique recipe that is less than 1 percent different from the million no knead recipes on the world wide web. These people need to practice and stop trying to make a simple bread convoluted.

>I made it dough felt too wet and undercooked and the flavor was a bit too yeasty
oven not hot enough
you didn't heat the dutch oven for 45 minutes
you used too much yeast
you did not fold your dough

>>17759007
kneading is not necessary
just autolyse

>>17759013
watch videos by chainbaker on youtube very well explained videos on how to make bread.

>>17759973
Yep. I didn't fold at all. I wanted the lazy recipe to work. Maybe on the yeast, though I did heat up the dutch oven together with my oven and it took about 20 mins.
Biggest mistake was that I messed up the stage where you form it into a ball and let it rest for a bit more.

>>17759044
Actually I did. Pop said he was honestly a little disappointed that he didn't get the chance to teach me. You will always disappoint your father somehow I guess

>>17758938
I don't bake very often, but I've made this for the occasional holiday for the past 10 years and it's always turned out. Rest of this old boy's stuff is worth glancing over too

>>17761164
Actually cool blog. Interesting fella.
I'll make sure to try this

>>17759007
You're daughter is a faggot. Did you know that?

>>17758991
what a handsome jawline

>>17761368
her parent uses 4chan and is even worse

use chef johns french bread no knead recipe for all breads

>>17758938
If you don't knead it I don't need it

>>17758991
what brand of flour did you use? that makes a huge difference
