Poolish/Biga (lemmy.world)

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to find a recipe to make a food item from a restaurant in my area. They have a big sign on the wall that says they make their bread out of poolish and Biga. Researching that I'm confused...poolish and Biga are two different kinds of bread right? Specifically I'm trying to make the dish I've attached to this post.

Does anyone know what this might be? It's that poolish dough? Don't suppose anyone has a recipe?

I get very strong bagel vibes from the bubbly crust and shape, curious if you did a preferment bagel dough if it would be close. Maybe like this King Arthur recipe, but wrapped around fillings and baked instead of in bagel shape? https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/bagels-with-pate-fermentee-recipe

I see where you're coming from but the texture is much lighter and less dense than a bagel. Something more like a dinner roll.

Ahhh yeah that's probably not what you're looking for then.
