Tons of trapped air again 😭 I need to be neater during lamination. Otherwise I’m pretty happy with this. Super super soft crumb, no structural integrity. You can just eat it straight. The crust is thin and crackly. Mild flavor with the sweet potato lightly coming through.

10% wheat flour

85% hydration

20% starter

2% salt

Couple of tablespoons of mashed roasted purple sweet potato

    Does cutting while hot change the breads texture?

    Is that a super sharp Japanese knife or something? I’ve never seen someone cut into sourdough so easily before. The loaf looks delicious!
