here aim for a flour with higher protein content to produce lots of gluten i'm using a scale baking requires precise measurements to achieve consistent results [Music] and go salt [Music] and sugar mix it all together and goes instant yeast [Music] and lukewarm water the dough will be sticky but don't add any more flour as you need it it will smooth out a bit form it all into a ball and transfer it to a sturdy work surface we'll knead this firmly and continuously for 10 minutes keep the momentum not only is this a good workout it's a good activity to release a lot of stress the dough is

the oven is off but add the bowl of covered dough in there the steam from the hot water will create a warm and humid place for the dough to rise nicely let it rest for one hour after one hour the dough has doubled in size the amount of time for it to rise to the size may vary for you depending on the temperature of where you live the warmer it is the faster it will rise the cooler the slower it will rise push the air out like this [Music] it's so soft and fluffy now [Music] oil your working surface so the dough doesn't stick [Music] divide the dough into six equal pieces [Music] [Music] [Music] while working on each piece cover the rest with a damp cloth let's shape these pieces into baguettes slap it against the surface three to five times roll it and fold it over oil your rolling pin and roll the dough out thinly [Music] you should hear popping noises from the air being pushed out [Music] [Music] from the top roll the dough downwards and pressing on the sides the bottom part
