food BUMPER'S FLOG

[Bumper]

Along with the super peel, I picked up a copy of Flour, Water, Salt, Yeast - the fundamentals of artisan bread and pizza by Ken Forkish.  The pizza dough is his poolish pizza dough, with the poolish made last night.  I have learnt a lot over the last couple of days reading this, in particular picked up on the benefits of temp controlling water additions.  Had a good rise after folding, 5 dough balls made, 3 for pizza and 2 for focaccia for lunches I think.

So along with the super peel, I picked up a copy of Flour, Water, Salt, Yeast - the fundamentals of artisan bread and pizza by Ken Forkish.  Trying his poolish pizza dough this evening, with the poolish made last night, pics to come.  I have learnt a lot over the last couple of days readying this, in particular picked up on the benefits of temp controlling water additions.  Had a good rise after folding, 5 dough balls made, 3 for pizza and 2 for focaccia for lunches I think.

Leftover pork tacos last night.  Cooked some up in a tomato passatta, cumin, clove, garlic and arbol chilli.  Dos capas with the soft tortilla having a generous smear of bahamian goat pepper lime jelly, a fresh avocado, pineapple red onion, cilantro and lime juice salsa, cheese, sour cream.  Close the soft tortilla and gently squeeze to meld all the ingredients together... mmmm.  Full and happy after this!
