Ingredients
- 500 g all purpose flour King Arthur brand is recommended
- 20 g cocoa powder Valrhona recommended
- 150 g bitter-sweet dark chocolate 70% cocoa, Valrhona recommended
- 425 g water
- 10 g salt
- 3 g active dry yeast or quick rise yeast
- 2 Tbsp honey
Instructions
- Mix cocoa powder and salt with flour in a large bowl until well dispersed.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix well for a few minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes.
- Over a period of one hour, do 3 sets of stretch and folds, flipping the dough upside down after each set.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator overnight for about 10-12 hours.
- Turn the dough on a lightly floured work surface. Divide into 3 equal parts and shape into rectangles. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- Start preheating oven to 490F, with a 14 x 16 inch baking stone on the top rack and a bread pan filled with hot water on the bottom rack.
- Divide the dough into 3 pieces and shape them into rectangles. Stretch each dough rectangle slightly and fold into a cylinder, sealing the seams. Using your hands, roll the cylinders gently stretching them to desired length, about 16 inches.
- Place the cylinders on a floured surface, seam side up, side by side. Cover with a plastic wrap and prop from each side to ensure the baguettes hold their shape.
- Proof at a room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Remove the plastic wrap, pull the baguettes apart. Turn them seam side up and brush off excess flour. Using a sharp knife or a razor blade, make 3-4 scores on each baguette. When scoring, use a swift and firm motion to ensure nice and clean cuts.
- Open the oven, taking caution not to get burned by steam, and slide baguettes off onto the baking stone. Close the oven and reduce temperature to 480F.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Rotate, drop the temperature to 450F and continue baking for another 10-15 minutes, until deep brown.
