Panel and ciabattary

[desperance]

Okay. I have made the ciabatta dough, and risen it, and divided it, and set it to rise again. (Come to think, counting the sponge last night, this is the third time. I can bake God?)

I do have to say that without exception, this is the nastiest, wettest, stickiest dough I have ever had to work with (and the recipe says, quite loudly, Do Not Add More Flour! So I didn't. Eww). It better make good bread, or I am looking elsewhere next time.

Meantime, while it rises again, I have to do a panel over at Flycon. You will find me pontificating under "Hard-boiled Fantasy". If you're quick.

Heh. Felt a bit like fighting the technology, swimming against the tide, all that endless slow refreshing - but there were at least the seeds of an interesting discussion there, even if we lost the rat-a-tat of swift debate.

Oh, yes. I found the sff.net discussions easier to follow, but we make do.
