I saw this in another group and thought that some might enjoy watching it.


SBS Food :: Food Art

I enjoyed that. I have a lot to learn. I wonder if they give bread making lessons...?

I want to try mixing the toppings and then adding toppings to the pizza?

Beautiful pizzas and bread. It looks like they mixed the toppings with chopped tomatoes and grated cheese and then just piled it all onto the dough.

We need a mouth-watering smilie!

Flour, water & salt only. No leavening at all? And yet it was quite well risen after they removed the cloth.

Did you see them wash their hands?

Re: Great video of 2 Italian sisters baking in WFO

Nope. Unless we can consider the moment when one sister pours water into the dough.

I have made pizza the way they did, BTW, it was very good.

Just watched this again - it's still good.

I had a giggle at about 2:00 mins in... their turning peel is a crowbar! - awesome.

I had missed this earlier!

Agreed, good watching! For those of you who make "heavy" bread, note how lively the dough looks. How pliable and bouncy! As has been speculated, that is a WET dough and 75% is probably not far off. It is worked a bit more I think than some of you believe for it is not very sticky. And though not particularly sticky, note how she flops a blob of dough on a bed of flour for the forming before proofing.

There is lots of bread that is not slashed, but is dimpled like Pane Pugliese, pressed (with a dowel or in this case knife) to create a dent. The dent or dimples allow the loaf to expand during baking without bursting. There is some evidence of the knife cut in a seam at the top of at least some of the loaves.

Nice video!

Ok, but how do you get the advertising that blocks half the screen to go away?

I was so much more excited about the two Italian sisters before I saw the video.

BTW, hell of a door they got there.

hahahahahahah....I know where you're coming from, I was thinking the same thing!

Re: Great video of 2 Italian sisters baking in WFO

Being Italian, that was truly authentic and very old school. I remember my mother pretty much doing it the same way...it was a walk down memory lane for me.

I of course being a boy at the time took all that knowledge for granted, now I wish I would've been more involved.

Thanks for sharing...as I wipe the tears from eyes.
