High Gluten and Wholewheat Bread
Baked 2 loaves of bread and experimented with a mixture of high gluten and wholewheat flour. Both were identical, but somehow one ended up larger than the other. I am guessing, I had more starter in one. I opened baked and scored at 7 minutes. I was aiming for an ear and scored deeply. I was very determined to get them ears. I was thrilled, I finally managed to achieve this. I did my Happy Sourdough Dance in the kitchen. I gifted one to a good neighbor and she was kind enough to take pictures for me for a crumb shot. I was very surprised the larger one was so much more easier to roll. The smaller one was sticker and tougher as it bulk fermented faster. This really was an eye opener to me. Experimenting and picking up data was a great information and how to perfect on the next loaf. Please provide feedback, if I scored too deeply or not. 🍞

Awesome loaves of bread with nice crumb. Great job.
Crumb shot.
The challenge this week will be how to manage the butter. I’ll speak to that later today, but in the meantime, isn’t this a pretty slice of bread? Brioche: https://skoo.ly/brioche Brioche hamburger buns: https://skoo.ly/buns-brioche

Looks like some delicious sandwich bread.
Brioche Weak Explainer
Brioche scares people. It looks fancy, it's French, and everybody assumes it's the hardest bread on the board. It's not. In the ways that usually trip you up, it's easier than sourdough. There's just one thing nobody warns you about, and it isn't the fermentation. The new video overview lays it out: why brioche's easier than sourdough and harder than you think, why the butter goes in last, and the two ways this bread can fall apart before it ever hits the oven. Watch it, then come bake it with us Saturday. The recipe's already in the Pantry. https://skoo.ly/brioche Hamburger buns: https://skoo.ly/buns-brioche

Very informative, especially for someone who hasn't made Brioche before.
I’ve been baking today
I don’t want to get you guys too excited but this brioche is an amazing bread. Topped with a little turbinado sugar and flaky sea salt. The house smells like a French bakery on Sunday morning.

Croissant Loaf Brunch
I took a page out of @Henry Hunter book and made my husband a delicious brunch consisting of Croissant Loaf French Toast, Over - Medium Eggs, Chicken Sausage and an Arnold Palmer to wash it all down.

Retired. It's been a year since closing our home bakery due to moving, but I look forward to getting back into baking as soon as things ease up.
