        @Giles:

        For any of you who are buying the Ken Forkish book, and I know of at least 2 of you are, my main deviation from his method is that I do not use a Dutch oven.  I invert my proofing basket onto baking parchment and place that on a flat cast iron griddle that has been in the oven for 45 mins.  I then pour boiling water into a baking tray at the bottom of the oven, this provides the moisture required…

        Nor do I… I use a well preheated (250°C) pizza stone and as well a baking tray with water for the first ten minutes...

          That looks great…......Mine'll be out in about 10.  I leave them in the oven for about 1/2 an hour after turning the heat off, with the oven door cracked....

                          Way to go everyone. FYI I bought the kindle version of Ken Forkish’s book. It’s easy to use in that form as well. Even easier if you use an iPad as opposed to iPhone etc.

                            Thx for info @Matty123 the kindle version can be viewed on an Apple iPad? Or do I need a Kindle?

                                When you get Forkish, it is "White Bread With Poolish"…..

                                    As I have mentioned to @Chap before.  I do not knead (nor do I use a machine to mix), the Ken Forkish method eschews kneading.  He teaches the pincer method combined with folding.  And because kneading bores me rigid, I like him…... 🙂

                                    Need bores me rigid too  😶

                                    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
