It’s always funny to see how much people really beat the crap out of their dough when shaping.

Does it have a second proof after this?

Any pics of the baked loaves? I’ve seen your baguettes, and they are amazing.

So, you’re not concerned about beating the gas out of the dough, I take it?

Can I ask a couple stupid questions (from a very much non beginner)?
What hydration do you start with?
And what is your process with shaping in terms of adding flour?
I always learned to use water to shape and reduce stickiness. Which is great, but it makes dough really slick and not necessarily taught like this. Im just curious for a better shaping technique because im not sure mine is working for me.

The dough consistency looks perfect! Better than bakeries around here [sigh]. Well done!
I’m still working on mine…

I do the fold and roll but never tried pressing too. Need to do that. Next time.

Bread making is so weird lol

I have an erection. I probably spend a good 5 minutes shaping. Even at that, sometimes I don’t feel I’ve built enough tension and go back 20 minutes later for another attempt.

Looks awesome! Would’ve been great to see the outcome and/or recipe for context in order to possibly learn from you.

This is definitely not his first loaf!
So relaxing to watch
