My name is Matt and I'm currently struggling through the process of learning how to bake! These are little tips, tricks, and lessons I've picked up along the way!
In this episode of The Beginner Baking Podcast, Matt talks about some discoveries he's made with proofing boxes and his bread deflating! He also goes over a recent revelation of using the refridgerator to proof instead of leaving the dough at room temperature.
Matt is back to talk about Egg Tarts, Babka, and using your oven as a Proofing Box.
In this episode, Matt goes through some of the initial headaches he ran into while making bread over the last couple months! Topics covered: Softened Butter, Active Dry Vs Instant Yeast, Standmixer Bowls and Wet Woes, Keeping Things Wet and Dry, Kneading References and the Windowpane, Oiling and Rising.
Frustration Topics: Olive Oil Bread, Springform Cake Pans, Nothing is Just Right, Why is My Cake Browning Here and Not Here?!
In this episode, Matt discusses the beauty of Freezers (very self-explanatory) and Cookie Dough, as well as the use of Tangzhong and Biga with bread.
