Stretch and Fold





A few weeks ago I came across a bread making technique called *stretch and fold* ... So, I decided to look into it.
I watched a couple of YouTube vidoes...
It didn't look too difficult to do, so I decided to give it a try.
I used a basic bread recipe, reducing the flour to make a wet dough.
I followed along with the technique and turned-out a nice loaf of bread.
I actually like this technique better than the kneading, punch-down, rise technique.
My bread was not dense, but light and fluffy ... the way we like our sandwich bread.
I want to try some other breads using the Stretch and Fold method.
I'll let ya'll know how it goes!
