bread is 60% water. So when someone commented, “What about tomato soup?” My ADHD clocked in so fast, I started running hydration numbers for tomato paste on site. In my 20s, grilled cheese and tomato bisque was basically a lifestyle. So yeah, I turned the soup into the dough. Tomato paste, garlic, and dried herbs steeped into the water before I even touched the flour. And if you’re counting, 83% hydration, 9% tomato paste. Basically soup in a spreadsheet. I dehydrated the garlic and herbs I infused the water with. No waste in this kit. Folded that in with pecorino and let it rise again. Then topped it with basil, sundried tomatoes, more pecorino and baked it till the kitchen smelled like a garlic no kissed by a pizza oven. The crumb was soft, light, almost airy with that slightly jammy pole. The tomato actually came through. Just flavor locked in every layer. It’s given grilled cheese. It’s given fkaca. It’s a loaf I’ll 100% make
