Baguettes
Yields: 3 Baguettes
-
Ingredients
5 cups + 1 T (26 oz) Bread Flour
2 cups (1 lb) Water, lukewarm
4 t Instant Yeast
3 t Salt
Method
In a mixing bowl of a stand up mixer,
whisk together the bread flour, yeast,
and salt. Make sure that the salt and
yeast do not come into direct contact.
With a paddle slowly add in water. Then
switch to a dough hook and knead for
8 minutes.
Transfer dough to a lightly dusted
counter top. Shape into a ball. Cover
with plastic wrap. Let rest for
30 minutes.
Knead the dough for 1-3 minutes.
Cover the dough and let rest for
1 1/2 hours.
Stretch and fold the dough. Start from
the top of the dough pull forwards
(away from you) then bring it to the
middle. Then pull bottom of the dough
backwards (towards yourself) and fold
to the middle. Do the same for the left
and right side of the dough. Flip the
dough over and cover with plastic
wrap. Let rest 1 hour.
Divide the dough into 3 equal portions.
Shape into 6 inch cylinders. Start by
taking one of the dough portions and
shape into a rectangle. With your first
three fingers gently make several
indentations into the dough. Next, roll
the dough over onto itself three times.
Sealing each turn with your hand. Pinch
the seam tight and let rest for about
5 minutes (or when the dough is relaxed
enough to roll) with the seam facing up.
Cover with a towel.
Roll into baguettes to fit the universal
tray. Place on universal tray seam side
down and let rest for about 5 minutes
covered with a towel.
Score 5 times and place directly into
oven. Select the MasterChef Plus
program for Baguettes.
