Guys, I’ve finally baked a loaf of bread.

The last two loaves I tried to make turned into a soupy mess from over bulk fermenting and I (with anger and teary eyes) threw them right in to the bin.

She might be a little under proofed because I was cautious (what do you think?), but it looks beautiful and it tastes delicious.

So happy I could cry (happy tears this time).

Recipe is from youkneadsourdough.com.au (I’m in Australia). Followed it basically to a T.

Starter is 1/2 rye 1/2 white bakers flour.

Please let me know what you think! Happy for harsh criticism.

    Gorgeous first bake! I’m in Australia too (QLD where it’s hot as heck 🥵) at the moment I’m getting my dough into the fridge within 4 hours of initial
    Mix and letting it refrigerate for at least 24 hours before baking and it’s working out perfectly to not be under. Happy Baking 🥖
