I’m totally new to making any kind of bread but I was gifted a starter by my friend and wanted to get good at making fresh bread for breakfast! 🙂
For this loaf I used flour, water, a little salt and a little neutral oil ( just measured with my heart haha ), folded and stretched about 2 times with proofs between, then cold proved and shaped before being baked in a lidded cast iron pot for 20 minutes covered and then 25 uncovered!
This is the first time any kind of bread baking has gone well for me and I don’t have anyone to share it with, so I thought I’d make a little post here!! 💗

Looks pretty dang good, but measuring ingredients by sight is a risky game I’m not willing to try lol. Going to be hard to get consistent results like that.
Makes me happy (and a little jealous lol) seeing such a beautiful bread for someone’s first try! Mine was a horrible mess haha. Amazing work in my opinion!
Incredible instincts! Keep going.
