My first loaf of the weekend. Turned out so soft on the inside, crumb wasn’t tough to cut through.

  • 100g active starter, 325g room temp water, 500 bread flour, 10g salt.

  • Combined starter and water, then added flour.

  • I let the dough rest for 1 hour and then added the salt during my first set of stretch & folds. Took inner temp dough (79°F) for bulk fermentation.

  • 3 sets coils every 30 minutes.

  • Bulk ferment on counter for 5.5 hours based on dough temp.

*One pre-shape, let rest for 20 minutes, then did final shaping.

  • Refrigerated for 18 hours, freezer for 1 hour before scoring/baking. Did side scoring first with rice flour on top.

  • Baked at 450° F with lid for 30 minutes, made big score 7 minutes in.

  • Lowered oven to 415°F and baked for 15 minutes.
