I expect it’s to generate steam in the oven for the first part of the bake. I just put ice chips in my Dutch oven after I get the boule in there, but I should try this.

Steam contributes to a good rise, if I’m not mistaken.

Hey friend, your participation here is most welcome but I’ll ask you to keep the language reasonably clean if you don’t mind. (I might have gone with ‘FRIGGING’ instead, esp because it uses today’s letters). Thanks.

Ugh... I hate -ABLE days. So many perfectly acceptable words rejected.

These are the daily letters in the New York Time Spelling Bee puzzle. The goal is to try to make as many words as possible, but every word must be at least 4 letters and must use the center letter (the one in brackets here). There is always at least one ‘pangram’, a word that uses all of the letters, as well.

I believe you can play the NYT puzzle for free up to a point, but otherwise you need a subscription to their games collection.

HTH.

I know, right? I thought I was done after I got 5, but no.

I was tremendously pleased to get to QB today!

It’s HONEYDEMON, isn’t it? 😜

I came back to it after reading this and got it almost immediately. Eluded me forever as well though.

Does it shut you down as soon as you get the PG? That’s kind of sucky.

Thanks! I was more excited about the 1,000 day streak when I posted. Didn’t feel like my times were anything special for the most part.

5 seconds is almost faster than I can type the words in!
