Crumb shot to follow in a couple hours
Nice looking crust, good spread of air pockets.
Great work, how is the bite?
I like mine with just a good quality butter.
It’s chewy and tender. I’m really happy with it. My kid won’t eat it if the crust is too hard, so I don’t leave it in as long as I otherwise might.
This one is for BLTs. Going to save the heel for snacking with butter and flake salt though.
My partner makes these with the discard. Along with a bunch of other stuff.
That’s super cool!
Now that’s a bread!
God damn I am jealous of rhat bread .
I do nothing special, really the only things I’m doing differently now vs as a beginner is using a dutch oven and higher quality flour. That and being more deliberate about hydration and timing feels like 75% of the whole skill.
Just the fact that you make your own bread is enough.
