so I followed a TikTok recipe (100g starter, 350g water, 500g flour and 10g salt) and right away my dough looked wetter than the video. this is my first loaf but I’m an experienced baker in general. I did 5.5 hours bulk fermentation, 4 sets of stretch and folds, cold proofed for 12 hours ish and then baked. my internal temp was 208F
because the dough felt and looked wetter than anticipated I am not sure how I did and would love any advice.
my husband loved it and it has a nice spring and crust to it

It looks beautiful to me but I’m new to the community. Wishing you a lifetime of delicious breads and baked goods!
I was gonna say you were lying this was your first loaf until I saw you were an experienced baker. Because this looks amazing!! I wish my current loaves looked this perfect lol
Looks good to me. Eat it and make another!
Look delicious
Well done. That is really great. I baked probably 8 or 9 before I achived that shape and colour. Even now, I am jealous of yours.
Omg the crumb is perfect!!!
Did you knead it? Did you BF at room temperature?
Looks like first loaf today.
Great results 7/10
lovely! beautiful crumbs
Beautiful!
Looks amazing!
Dough looking wetter than the video is probably just due to the differences in flour.
Different brands take water better than others. The fun part about this hobby is finding the best recipe for your starter and flour over time. So keep going!
Looks amazingggg!! I’ll tell ya it’s light years better than my first few loaves 😅
That’s an excellent first loaf!
This looks great!!
There are many many TikTokers but this recipe is fairly standard. What most don’t tell you is that sourdough usually is wetter than yeasted bread. You took your dough and made a great loaf, despite not known that. Congrats!
A fitting sacrifice for the induction ceremony into the bread cult. We’ll all line up in hooded tunics and smack your rear with baguettes.
Your bread addiction starts now fellow Breadren.
Looks divine!!
