I have severely over proofed my baguettes.
I don’t believe I have ever worked so hard to mess up a recipe as I have this poolish baguette recipe. First, I forgot my Poolish on the counter until it was all over the counter. I saved it, mixed up my dough. Did a coil fold and forgot about it again. These things are more like handling ciabatta, than baguettes. I have no idea how I’m going to score them, let alone move them. The oven is preheating. I don’t have much time. Wish me well.

Can you cook for a few minutes and then score them?
Sourdough discard tortillas.
Yesterday, I made the tortillas from my discard for my dinner. It was good and easy to make

@Patt Stanaway It doesn't need to ferment for 50 hours. The recipe calls for 24 to 72 hours in the fridge. I did 50 trying to maximize the flavor. NY Style pizza is a thin foldable pizza dough. Unfortunately I didn't get any shots of the pizzas. I was making the pizza while another was cooking. My hands were a mess and I didn't want to goop up my phone.

@Linda Gregory I usually put a piece of scotch tape vertically on the side. I mark the original dough height and either measure or eyeball the rise height and make a mark for the finished height

@Candi Brown-McGriff yeah, I just remove it with a knife
A Personal Note (Not About Bread, This Time)
A different kind of post today. I'll be back to baguettes tomorrow. Some of you have followed Ryan's track and field journey through posts here over the years. He just won his third Conference Carolinas Championship in the javelin, set the conference meet record, and was named FMU Team MVP for the third year in a row. In three weeks he competes at the NCAA Division II National Championships at Welch Stadium in Emporia, Kansas. Two weeks after that, he receives his master's degree. The NCAA is covering his trip. I'm covering mine. I'd like to be in the stands. A handful of folks have asked how they can help. Here's what I've put in place. Cleared in writing by FMU compliance. None of it goes to Ryan. Every dollar is for parent travel. If you want to follow Ryan's story, his page is here: https://faith-field-flow.lovable.app If you want to chip in for the trip: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-cheer-ryan-at-ncaa-nationals Sharing helps as much as giving. Thank you for being part of this. Back to baguettes tomorrow. — Henry ⭐🔥

Being able to watch Ryan compete at the national level has to make you grin from ear to ear. Soak in that weekend with him! Best of luck to Ryan!
