Enriched true-sourdough trial #1-2: fixes to my SD ‘roti gambang’

I did fixes to my earlier roti gambang (look mother! I made a hyperlink! 😂). The fixes are each beauty and formula-wise. The earlier one was someplace between ache brié and brioche, this one is someplace between ache brié and ache viennois. So this batch tastes lighter and appears extra refined too. I added candied orange peel to distinguish it from my to-be-tested cinnamon rolls (with attention-grabbing twist!), so they will not cannibalise one another.

I am excited for Cariah Marey’s improved leavening energy. At 50% sugar saturation, she will be able to double a levain stage in 5 hours. Nevertheless, for the reason that closing dough had been so heavy in bananas inclusion, closing proof took 9 hours. However as a complete, the fermentation solely took 19 hours (8 grams of starter for 500 grams of complete flour). She may need already outperformed a few of different varieties of candy starter (to not point out it is sizzling in right here, and I am too lazy with pH or temperature measurement, or to do any chilly temperature methods) I am proud to be her pimp! 😆

She is 4:2:1:1 fine-bran:water:lactose:butter in the mean time.

I realized that retailer purchased pandan sediment will break up additional after freezing. I take advantage of the clear half for dough that should not be inexperienced for taste, the inexperienced half I am going to use for different bakes that have to be inexperienced. I used the clear half on this batch however “off label”.

Change log:

• Elevated dried bananas from 20% to 30%
• added 1% candied orange peel. I used leftover candying syrup as syrup glaze
• diminished VWG
• Lowered butter from 35% to 25%
• no extra all eggs. Just one egg for 500 grams of complete flour, remaining liquid is water.
• Used hotdog bun molds, and baguette viennois make-up.
• Elevated palm sugar to 19,8%

Verdict

The bananas actually got here by means of, and the candied orange peel brightened up the general taste, with out making the buns style too orangey. It is also lighter. And the excessive sugar saturation and low hydration actually are security nets to forestall dough getting acidic, so I will not be nervous with additional lengthy closing proof. I would strive including molasses subsequent time. 

I am going to put the system down right here for two days, in any other case deleted. I am preparing for my cinnamon rolls. My lean bran starter is about to be absolutely recovered after extreme abuse, then I would make a devoted submit on my Desem-inspired starters that includes two several types of sugar, or ought to I name them, Jaysem starters (ha!)
