Soy Sauce Baguette (Kneaded with a Spatula)

.

Right before we begin, I needed to let you find out about Easy Ways to Get Healthy.

You already understand that, to achieve true health, your diet needs to be well balanced and wholesome and you need to get a good amount of exercise. The is that, at the end of the day, we don't always have enough time or energy required for a healthy lifestyle. At the conclusion of the day, most of us want to go home, not to the gym. We want a yummy, greasy burger, not an equally delightful salad (unless we’re vegetarians). You will be happy to discover that achieving good health doesn't have to be hard. With training you can get all of the nutritional requirements and the exercise that you need. Here are some of the best methods to be healthy and balanced.

Be sensible when you do your food shopping. If you make smart decisions when you are shopping for your groceries, you will be eating better meals by default. At the conclusion of your day do you really want to deal with crowded grocery stores and long waits in the drive through line? You want to get home quickly and eat something beneficial. Fill your pantry shelves with nutritious foods. This way, even when you choose that you want something greasy or not super nutritous, you will still be choosing items that are healthier for you than you would probably choose while running into a store or fast food restaurant.

Walk up the stairs. Instead of picking the elevator, ascend the stairs to your floor. Obviously this isn’t as possible if you work on the 25th floor of a high rise, but if you work on the fourth, climbing the stairs is a excellent way to get some exercise in. Even if your office or home is on one of the top floors, you can choose to get off of the elevator early and take the stairs the remainder of the way. So many people choose the elevator over clambering even a single flight of stairs. Even if you only have just one flight to climb, climbing up and down it during the day is a great way to get extra exercise.

Water is the very best beverage out there. Soda and coffee, when ingested in moderation, aren't that bad. Getting most of your hydration from them is a horrendous idea. Having water instead of other types of drinks is a good way to help your body in its health and hydration. You’re also cutting hundreds of calories from your diet— without having to resort to terrible tasting diet food. Water is often one of the keys to successful weight loss and healthfulness.

There are many things you can go after to become healthy. An expensive gym membership and very restrictive diets are not the only way to do it. Little things, when done every day, can do a lot to make it easier to get healthy and lose pounds. Make shrewd choices every day is a great start. Looking to get in as much physical exercise as possible is another. Remember: being healthy and balanced isn’t just about slimming down. It has more to do with making your body as powerful as it can be.

Ok, lastly! Here is your recipe today. Many thanks for looking at my post, do not forget to share this recipe to your family, your folks, neighbours, and many others. Have a wonderful day.

Ingredients of Soy Sauce Baguette (Kneaded with a Spatula)

1. You need 200 grams of Bread flour for making French bread (semi-strong).
2. It's 100 grams of of each (or use a combination of bread flour and cake flour).
3. You need 15 grams of A. Soy sauce.
4. It's 140 grams of A. Water.
5. It's 1 grams of Malt syrup (if you have it).
6. It's 4 grams of Sugar.
7. Prepare 1/2 tsp of Dried yeast.

Soy Sauce Baguette (Kneaded with a Spatula) instructions

1. Put the A. soy sauce and water in a small pan, and heat until it almost boils. Leave it to cool down. Once it cools, weigh it again and make sure the total weighs 150 g. If there is less, add some water..
2. Put the flours in a bowl..
3. Add the malt syrup (if you have it) in the 150 g of cooled liquid from step 1 and dissolve. Add the liquids to the step 2 bowl with the flours all at once..
4. Fold and knead the mixture with a spatula using a cut-and-fold motion until it forms one mass..
5. Cover with plastic wrap so that the dough doesn't dry out, and rest for 10 to 15 minutes..
6. Knead again, scooping the dough up from the bottom (as if to punch down the dough) for 15 minutes..
7. This time, put the dough in a clean oiled bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap..
8. Leave to rise until doubled in bulk. (The photo shows the dough after it's risen.).
9. Take the dough out onto a floured work surface, divide into 2, and punch down lightly to deflate. Round off each piece into a ball, place seam side down and leave to rest for 15 minutes or so..
10. Roll out each piece of dough thinly into a long stick shape..
11. I'm not good at transferring the dough later after it's risen, so I just put it on kitchen parchment paper at this point..
12. Put the dough on a long thin piece of kitchen parchment paper, and clip the edges together above the dough as shown here to stop the dough from spreading out! Leave the dough for its 2nd rising..
13. Start preheating the oven to 250°C, including the baking tray, so that's it's heated up when the dough has finished rising..
14. When the oven has reached temperature and the dough has risen, dust the surface of the dough with flour using a tea strainer. Slash the tops of the rolls, and drizzle some olive oil into the slashed parts. Mist the dough, lower the oven temperature to 210°C and bake for 25 minutes..
15. Please adjust the baking time and temperature depending on your oven. Incidentally the photo here shows 4 baguettes, or double the amount of the recipe, being baked..
16. The soy sauce is so aromatic, and the crust is so crispy - these baguettes are delicious..
17. The soy sauce and sugar make them so nicely browned too..
18. The crumb has some nice air bubbles too..
19. From here on I'll explain the baking method I came up with after a lot of trial and error. Attention! This is all done in my oven. I have a steam oven made by Hitachi by the way..
20. Put oven trays on the top and bottom racks upside down, preheat the oven at the maximum temperature of 250°C. Place the kitchen parchment paper with the formed dough on it in between the baking trays (be sure not to burn yourself!).
21. Don't switch the steam function of the oven on right away. Wait for 1-2 minutes then switch it on. Steam for 3 minutes then switch off. After 15 minutes take out the top baking tray and continue baking..
22. My oven only maintains the maximum 250°C temperature for 5 minutes, plus it doesn't reheat properly. So I warm it up twice..
23. If you protect the bread surface inside the small oven with the baking trays on the top and bottom before the slashed parts can open up properly, they will open up very nicely and form beautifully sharp, crispy edges..
24. With this method, this type of bread with a hard crust and sharp slashed edges bakes up very nicely. I don't know if it works in other oven. Please be careful not to burn yourself. I don't take any responsibility if this method somehow breaks your oven..
