Default Baking session - mixed results

I decided to have a baking session yesterday. I had discovered that my
sourdough levain had gone really dormant and it took a few feedings to
get it up to strength. I then made a poolish with all the water and half
of the flour with some of the levain and left it overnight. I made the
dough in the morning and while it was proofing, I went to the store to
get the ingredients for some chocolate-pistachio-cranberry muffins. In
the relatively short time I was out, the dough almost tripled in volume
indicating a now healthy levain. I made 3 loaves:

Then I made the muffins following a recipe from the British Bake-Off
competition. I followed the recipe very carefully. $7 worth of
pistachios and about $11 worth of chocolate in the mix and another ~$7
worth in the ganache!! The cupcakes were a bit dry and it took much more
chocolate to get the ganache to a setting consistency.
The results were unimpressive. However, I'm sure my grandson and
granddaughter will soon polish them off.
I shan't make that recipe again.

at least your bread came out great! Too bad about the muffins. I
hate when a should be trusted recipe turns out uninspired.

I made a fruit loaf today. Usually I use just mixed dried fruits. Today
for a change I put some nuts in instead of some of the fruit.

Not nearly so good. The nuts took away the sweetness we are used to

I won't be doing that again.

Yes, and it was damned expensive! 200g of melted Belgian chocolate and
100g of pistachios in the mix. The most annoying thing was the ganache.
I was a bit suspicious of the recipe so cut the cream content by 20%
when I should have halved it.
I hadn't fed the levain for months and it took 2 feedings to confirm
that it was still alive and with the next feeding it really took off.
It's getting on for 30 years old.

Was that a yeast recipe? Adding a bit of honey might have helped.

They are delicious but not as much as they should be. Grandson texted me
to say the ganash is great.

I've eaten half of it already:-) I decided to make tinned loaves rather
than my usual boule type. Portion control is a bit easier:-)

ganache is just another version of truffle IMO...
alter the cream content to suit the application.

as for price for good chocolate TJs has it for
about 4-6$/lb+ bar. well worth the price. we've
been getting away from dark chocolate the past
few years but when cooking/recipes call for baking
chocolate a few squares of their dark chocolate
bars work just as well (they have several %ages).

Next time maybe add chopped pitted dates, they add a nutty flavor and
a lot of sweetness.

In this case, the recipe called for milk chocolate, which I thought was
unusual. I bought Callebaut milk chocolate wafers.
I've had trouble with ganache recipes in the past and I reviewed many
recipes and it seems that for 36% heavy cream, one should use 2-2.5x
milk or white chocolate. The trouble with many recipes is that they
don't specify the chocolate content, nor the weight of the cream.

you give me hope for my sourdough starter languishing at the back of
the fridge. I do have a tiny bit dried starter in the freezer if I
can't kick some life into the stuff in the fridge. I just bought
myself a new Kitchenaid simply because I wanted the larger bowl. I am
excited to get back into bread baking.

I'm with you on the no nuts in the fruit loaf. It detracts from the
sweetness.

I've also just started again after a long break:-) I bought a KA Artisan
a while back to replace the old Kenwood for cake making. I still use the
Bosch for bread as it can handle large amounts of dough without getting
even warm.
My neglected levain, which I keep at ~65% hydration for French-style
pain-au-levain, had partially dehydrated to the consistency of window
putty with a grey top surface. I thought it was a goner but it revived.I
took some of the restored levain and made a second starter with the US
style sourdough 100% hydration. I haven't used that yet.

I bet it does! It made me hungry to see them. I was picturing a nice slice
with good butter.

Was that a yeast recipe? Adding a bit of honey might have helped.

Yes it was a yeast recipe! Hmmm good idea. I might try thank.

Next time maybe add chopped pitted dates, they add a nutty flavor and
a lot of sweetness.

That's an idea. Thanks

I'm with you on the no nuts in the fruit loaf. It detracts from the
sweetness.

Yes it did Never mind, we can eat it toasted with some jam

He has to stop posting pictures like that, otherwise I'll feel the
need to start baking sourdough bread again. And I don't want to.

Hell, he's probably never baked it in the first place.
He might not want to kill the tiny sourdough starter kids.

He never cooks. His wife does it all. Don't let him fool you.

I have already baked with one I revived after a good 6+ months of
hiding itself in the back of the fridge.

One thing I do recommend with starter rescue is to take only one
spoonful of the old stuff, use that in a clean container with fresh
flour and water and chuck all the rest of the old starter.

If it is revivable at all, you only need a very small amount of seed
starter.
