Hot JLMBBC Breadmaking Video

Maybe this NYT video will give Jim Lahey the attention he deserves: 

One might notice that my technique has diverged significantly from Lahey's by now.  It looks like Lahey gets better rise than I do too.  There are some other differences, like he's using 500 degrees instead of 450.  In my mind, some of these differences speak not to any errors, but to how robust the recipe is. 

So, if you haven't done this yet, or have any fear of screwing up, perhaps this short video clip will ease your mind and get you baking.

I thought this was a food blog?

Well, everyone has to let their hair down a little every once in a while. You know -- kick back, have a few beers, watch a little "breadmaking" video, and see what arises. :)
