DoctorSpocktopus , in Is this basic flour tortilla recipe correct?

Why would you use ChatGPT, a blurry concatenation of many recipes, instead of one of the millions of free recipes available online? Genuinely curious.

No ads, no useless walls of text teaching you life lessons, allows you to customise the ingredients and styles. Can also be very creative at times.

That’s an incredibly ironic thing for you to say.

counselwolf OP ,

I wanted to find a recipe by weight (in grams, not cups, tsp, etc.)

And most I found were in cups.


<span style="color:#323232;">2 1/2 cups (300g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour, plus additional as needed
</span><span style="color:#323232;">1 teaspoon baking powder
</span><span style="color:#323232;">1/2 teaspoon table salt
</span><span style="color:#323232;">1/4 cup of any one of the following: 4 tablespoons butter, room temperature (57g), shortening (48g), lard (57g), or vegetable oil (50g)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">7/8 to 1 cup (200g to 227g) water, hot, (about 110°F to 120°F)
</span>

I found this but I don’t know how much tsp of baking powder would be

For anything that’s a tablespoon or less, it’s usually easier to use volume. Most kitchen scales aren’t precise enough to handle this.

lemmefixdat4u , in [Question] How to make stretchy flour dough that won't tear

You could try substituting bread flour. It has more protein than all-purpose flour, therefore develops gluten faster with less working and resting. But I make hand-pulled noodles from all-purpose flour with 15 minutes of working. I can tell when the dough is ready by how it stretches when I twist it.

Don’t use cake flour. It’s a lower protein flour that is designed to not make much gluten.

SpaceNoodle , in [Question] How to make stretchy flour dough that won't tear

For pasta, I just mix a bulk restaurant flour (~10% gluten) 2:1 with egg, knead until incorporated and smooth, then tightly wrap and let rest for at least twenty minutes before rolling and cutting.

just_another_person , in [Question] How to make stretchy flour dough that won't tear

Developing the gluten in the dough takes time and effort. No real shortcuts to use here. If you’re specifically talking noodles only, you can try the work>rest>work method: work 3m, cover and rest a few mins, repeat twice, with a little extra work at the end. Some people swear by it, but I’ve noticed only a minor change, of any.

Also, make sure you use a well made and properly calibrated roller when making your sheets. Some of the cheaper ones that don’t have decent spacing calibration will work the dough too quickly between steps. Speaking of which, don’t skip steps when rolling out your dough.

Fondots , in [Question] How to make stretchy flour dough that won't tear

I’m nowhere near a good enough baker/pasta maker to comment on ratios and how to adjust your recipes, techniques and such, but you could possibly try adding a bit of vital wheat gluten to up the gluten even higher

At the end of the day though, I don’t think there’s really any getting around the process of kneading and resting and such other than using a stand mixer to do some of the hard work for you.

anytimesoon , in [Question] How to make stretchy flour dough that won't tear

You could try a stand mixer. I dont think there’s a way to develop gluten without kneeding

I don’t think you can get out of doing the work necessary. You could use machines to make it easier to stretch it, but you still gotta put the time in and let it rest and such.

Any thoughts on the best kind of flour for a glutenous dough? Most sources I found say to use bread flour

altima_neo ,
@altima_neo@lemmy.zip avatar

Bread flour contains a lot of gluten. There’s also specialty flour for making pasta, usually “00” flour. Surprisingly, it has less gluten than bread flour.

But yeah, gotta knead the dough to get the gluten to develop. There’s no way around it. You could get a mixer, if you can afford one and are making noodles regularly. That’s definitely the easiest way.

american flours are graded by their gluten content. Bread, being higher gluten than AP, which is higher than pastry or cake. Italian (eurpean?) flours are graded by fineness, and 00 is a finer powder than what you’d see in typical american flours. I would suggest using AP over Bread- the gluten will make it somewhat difficult to roll out since it’ll stretch out and spring back.

Unless OP is talking about asian noddles, particularly hand pulled noodles…

maniacal_gaff ,

Look up autolyse. Time can substitute for physical work when developing gluten.

Tl;DR pay and maintain app and server, terrible privacy and security, onboard electronics compromise longevity.

They need to pay for the server too.

These things tend to be horrible from a privacy and security standpoint. Here is the Exodus Report. 5 different trackers, 20 permissions including location. One of the permissions is Bluetooth, so maybe it can be controlled stricly through that. The app itself may need to phone home though.

The motherboard will probably go bad before the motor does, the chances of it being NLA (no longer available) are high.

That’s when I buy it on Craigslist for $20, or a neighbor asks me to fix it. I can’t get parts so I take out the display and put a temperature controller in, a master on/off switch, one for the scale, and hope I can directly switch the speeds without putting a speed controller in too. Then all the individual functions are back but without process steps, or internet connectivity.

If you need to fix one of these outside of warranty, and cannot do it yourself it is probably cost prohibitive, that’s even if parts are available.

I would look at the warranty validity, and if there is a separate support/ update period for the app/server.

As they say the ‘S’ in IoT stands for security.

TheGiantKorean , in [Question] for the life of me i cant get my toum to emulsify
@TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world avatar

I make aquafaba mayo using a hand blender a lot. Drizzling the oil in using a squeeze bottle helps a lot. Also just moving the hand blender around and kind of bringing the oil into the mixture as you drizzle.

1/8 tsp xanthan gum may also help to stabilize things if all else fails.

evasive_chimpanzee , in [Question] for the life of me i cant get my toum to emulsify

I use this recipe, and it works great. I think the key is switching back and forth between the lemon juice and oil.

eaterofclowns , in [Question] for the life of me i cant get my toum to emulsify

The only thing I can think of is that the jar he uses is very close to the diameter of the immersion blender, which restricts the oil incorporation into the emulsion. If you’re using a wider jar it might be allowing too much oil to flow in at once and breaking the emulsion?

witty_username , in [Question] for the life of me i cant get my toum to emulsify

Are all your ingredients at the same temperature? I find this greatly improves the chances of an emulsion taking hold. Easiest is to go for room temperature by placing your ingredients together on the kitchen counter and leaving them there for an hour or so

I’ll do that next time, the lemon juice was cold iirc

Taco2112 , in [Recipe] Dutch Mustard Soup

Hey! I know this stuff! My brother lived in Groningen for a couple of years and I had it when I visited. My girlfriend who doesn’t like mustard even liked it. We liked it so much that we’ve occasionally made it ourselves. I prefer it with onions more than the leeks.

Um. You cook bacon in oil? The bacon fat is not enough "grease"?

This seems quite odd to me.

Nice try olive oil salesman!
