The basics never get old. I miss attending classes with Kathleen but so glad I can refer back to these videos.

I always come back to this video as a reference on how to shape my sourdough for an oval basket. Very informative and short and sweet. Thank you for sharing.

Excellent video! Quickly got to the point with very clear instruction and visuals in no time at all! I used your video to shape the first loaf of homemade sourdough I ever made a few weeks ago and it turned out to be as good (maybe even better than) the stores in CA! Being in RI now it's not easy to find good sourdough and your video helped me make it myself :) Thanks.

When I was younger, I took piano lessons from an instructor at the local university. Your hands are just as nimble as hers and you are just as much an artist :)

Thank you for being so efficient to provide such useful bits of information and practice. Thank you for the smile at the end of the video. It made the whole lecture more human. I liked, subscribed and hit the bell button so that I could encourage you to carry on showing your positive and effective approach. We need more tutors with such an attitude. Thank you very much.

Late to the party here, but this video has totally transformed my news baking! I've been following a recipe that uses a simple, flatten and roll method for shaping the dough. It generally works, but it's inconsistent. I think it's due to the seam needing to be at the bottom. But this method is brilliant. Really nicely demonstrated, and easy to follow. Thank you! ❤

I've been doing the bicycle seat shape for a couple years now since seeing this video, and it results in a very nice batard. Probably now better than my boule :)

Thanks for this short but important skill. I’m using Ken Forkish techniques and I happen to have an oval cast iron Dutch oven but all his techniques are for making a round loaf. So I’ve been in need of this. I’ve actually been baking bread since before the pandemic but having trouble now getting flour and yeast. I had to buy a #2 bag of Redstar yeast and am storing it in vacuum seal in my freezer.
I am lucky I happen to have a small batch organic grower who grows whole wheat, spelt, triticale and rye milling them in small batches.
