    Thanks for a great video! As a followup to the what can you do with an over-proofed loaf question, many times you can salvage an over-proofed loaf by kneading it, perhaps adding some more flour if the dough is very weak, loafing it, and then letting it rise again. This time, catch it sooner! As a rule of thumb, each subsequent rise takes about half the time of the previous one, so this is not the time to leave the house and go shopping!

      If you want to get a really thin crust pizza you can deliberately over-proof so that the dough is very slack and easy to stretch out.

    Thanks for sharing your knowledge. This is the demonstration and explanation I needed. But when do they go into the fridge for cold fermentation? After testing the proofing? or did these doughs just come out of the fridge? I appreciate you sacrificing some dough.

  • @DANVIIL

    You can bake overproofed bread in a bread tin and it will come out ok but not as good as a properly proofed dough.

    How does the poke test work when cold fermenting in the fridge overnight? The dough is cold and tight. Trying to figure this out as I still have problems with gauging just when the bulk is done and time for the baskets and fridge.

  • @samboswell3798
    @samboswell3798 2 года назад +2

    Do these tests work if you're baking a loaf straight out of the refrigerator? I usually bulk, shape and store at ~33°F until 2-3 minutes before I bake.

    • @ChallengerBreadware
      @ChallengerBreadware  2 года назад +2

      They aren't as reliable with cold dough, so it's safest to make sure that your loaf is properly fermented after before going into the fridge.

  • @mvl6827
    @mvl6827 19 дней назад

    However. A lot of sourdough bread bakers use the fridge for the second and final proof, because of convenience (timing) and apparently taste enhancing. But the poke test does not work with refrigerated dough... what's is your take on this?

    Can you not just cook the over proofed bread?

      @ChallengerBreadware  3 года назад +3

      You can bake over proofed bread and it will be delicious. It will just not have the same structure as a properly proofed loaf. If the dough is way over proofed to the point where it won't hold shape, you can bake it as a focaccia instead.

    • @plowe7981
      @plowe7981 3 года назад

      @tia jewels I watched a vid from a baker who said if it is overproofed to reshape it and bake it off. I’ve also heard do not score overproofed dough. But maybe this all depends on how far gone it is.

    • @ChallengerBreadware
      @ChallengerBreadware  3 года назад +3

      @@plowe7981 Over proofed bread is not likely to hold its shape well, so re-shaping it usually isn't very helpful. But it can easily be enjoyed as focaccia, pizza dough, or even baked in a loaf tin for some structural support.

    While the explanation is good the video doesn't show the dough clearly. An overhead shot of pale dough in a pale basket on a pale counter doesn't provide enough contrast. Who edited this?
