Lean Doughs

Lean doughs, which are made with little or no fat, comprise the world of bagels, baguettes and many other forms of non-rich breads. These breads are made using commercial yeast (instant dry, active dry or baker's yeast) and included techniques such as pre-ferments and "spiking." If you're using a natural starter, please post on the Sourdough Board.

Hi Jacob (and everyone else here),
 
First of all, thanks a lot for your very good website. Not just for baking, although that's what I need most help with considering I'm kinda new at that. It's always good when a chef explains his/her thought processes, almost like a magician explaining magic tricks. I was a kitchen hand in a fancy restaurant back when I was a teenager, and I learnt a lot by just asking "why are you doing that?" instead of "what are those ingredients you need again?". I get the same ah-ha feeling with your videos & podcasts, so keep up the good work!
