This is my 3rd loaf and I love it. I promised it to a friend and when it came out of the oven I was sad to let it leave. But, while I’m proud of it, I have no idea what I am doing and am open to any constructive criticisms! ♥️

500 g Flour

  5. Refrigerate overnight.
  6. Pre-heat oven to 460° F.

    u/True_sTori_bro, Thank you for posting these photos! I really like how you were thinking of curves rather than straight lines when you scored the dough ball, and the it enhances the feeling of a sphere for me. The only suggestion for improvement that I can think of is to maybe make the secondary score a bit deeper next time? The reason I mention this is because the crumb seems to be a bit compressed on that side; it’s a problem with my loaves, but yours is much better. Kudos!
