WORD OF THE DAY: RETARD
This is where you take control of your timing. ⏱️
Retard just means slowing fermentation down on purpose, usually by putting your dough in the fridge.
❄️ Cold doesn’t stop fermentation. It slows it.
That gives you more time… and a lot more flexibility.
🌾 It also builds flavor. Slow fermentation deepens everything.
🔪 And practically speaking, it firms up your dough so scoring gets easier and cleaner.
If you’ve ever felt rushed trying to bake on a schedule that doesn’t fit your life, this is how you fix that.
Shape your dough. Put it in the fridge. Bake when you’re ready.
That’s retard.
