200 GM starter
670 GM water
1000 GM strong bread flour
12GM salt

Mix all ingredients and rest dough for 30 mins

10 slap and folds — Never used to do this

3 coil folds at 20 mins interval…add seed mix at this stage

Bulk ferment for 5 hrs

Shape and into the benneton for cold proofing overnight

Bake

Preheat Dutch oven for 20 mins
Score the bread and into the Dutch oven with 4 icecubes
NO 8 minute score – always used to do this

It's probably the best rise I have got for a seed infused loaf.

  1. Forgot to mention..before scoring…dough was in freezer for 30 mins…again never did this before

    Hot damn those are gorgeous. I could tell from the first pic that they were gonna be good. I think you could push the bulk ferment a little longer for a more even crumb, but you should be really happy with this.

    I would say you are losing over spring by scoring that deeply. try a little less and see.

    This looks awesome! I love a good seeded loaf.

  5. This is probably the most beautiful loaf of bread I’ve ever seen… do you think all the folding made that big of a difference?
