Biga life hack

(reposted due to wrong flair)

If you're like me and don't have a spiral mixer, love to make biga recipes (shout out to Julian Sisofo) and struggle to mix the biga because it's so dry – I've found out that pulsing it in a food processor works beautifully. Just add water first, then flour and yeast, pulse a couple of times until kind of combined then a few longer pulses until a ball of biga forms. Proceed as usual from that point.

Hope this helps some one!
