♪ Hey baby I hear the blues a callin tossed salads and scrambled eggs ♪ Hey what's up guys.
I am back with another episode of Binging With Babish.
This week, we're gonna take a crack at the quote-unquote "World's Greatest Sandwich" from Spanglish.
Now, this is pretty much just a BLT with an egg and some cheese on it I know that's not why you guys tune in to watch this show so It's going to be a good opportunity to learn about bread baking.
*Phone alarm clock sounds* The first rule of bread baking is that you have to get up pretty damn early in the morning if you want to eat this thing the same day.
So very much against my will, let's start cooking at 6AM We're starting off with 1 cup of room temperature water to which we are going to add half a teaspoon of instant yeast.
We're going to let those dissolve before adding 5 ounces each whole wheat and bread flour.
We're just going to mix those up to form a shaggy sort of dough that apparently is referred to as a "sponge".
It's going to serve as the primary leavening for our bread.
We're going to cover this up and let it sit at room temperature for at least 5 hours and up to 16.
