Here’s my first successful loaves to make it all the way and be edible. How’d I do?


I followed Joshua Weisman’s recipe but dropped the hydration to 75% using

175g levain
880g flour
630 g water
18g salt

I was nervous about my stretch and fold technique so I did 1 extra one 30 mins after the last in the recipe.

My first attempt had 0 rise because my starter takes longer to wake up from the fridge than I realized. Now that me and Bambi have an understanding to when she’s ready, I had a lot more success
