Some focaccia help please
I'm taking my first foray into making focaccia, hoping to add this as our first bread to sell at market. I'm using Henry's Market Day Focaccia recipe, and it calls for an overnight cold proof. I have quite a busy morning tomorrow, so I'd like to bake it tonight if possible. Is there a way I can bake it tonight and skip the cold proof this time? I'll be able to cold proof in the future, but want to give this a try first.

Mollie
Nothing makes me more happy that then to share my kitchen with my grands. Mollie started sourdough baking with me when she was 9, with one year, now 10, she made this beautiful sandwich loaf. My heart is so full. Note: when it was time to add the salt, look’s at me and said, Nonnie, do we still dimple in the salt like Mr Henry. I wanted to hit the floor. 🤯

Rolling pin with thickness guides
This is the rolling pin I use for even thickness when rolling out dough for cookies, pie crust and now croissants. This makes getting the right thickness easy! By the way, you guessed it, Amazon!

@Henry Hunter I have that one and I have learned to really use my aluminum one. But I love my French rolling pin.

@Candi Brown-McGriff have you tried the aluminum ones. I love my French roll and pen, but the aluminum one is becoming one of my friends. Lol.

Putting my new Pullman to the test
Some of you saw that I got a new pullman pan this week. A 13 x 4 x 4! I started making a loaf of enriched sandwich bread, but as I punched it down, I thought how in the world am I going to eat all this bread? But, if I made it cinnamon bread? I would eat it all so that’s what I did.

@Sandy Chong Sandy I absolutely love all of mine. That’s all I bake my sandwich bread. The large one does make a beautiful sandwich loaf. I would suggest just starting off with the standard. But there are several. I have the ones that are a tiny bit more more than the regular ones. Because I do so many breads, I bought the quick release which I never line with parchment paper. Also, thank you for being such an inspiration to this group. I love reading all of your comments. Keep shining and keep us on our toes with all your valuable information and post.
