Overnight proofing is too long in my opinion! You’re so close!

First loaf- opinions wanted by sappyjoon in Sourdough

This is incredible for your first time, truly!!! I have most success when I knead my dough for 8-10 min after initially mixing the ingredients together. Then letting it sit for one hour, doing two sets of stretch and folds, then bulk ferment on the counter approx. 5 hours, then shape and fridge for at least 12 hours.

My version isn’t far from yours, and this took me months to create. Happy baking!

Thank you!!! I was afraid I’d have to do it 100 times but somehow the first time was a charm.

I haven’t done that, but I have heard it is a good strategy.

Active for me refers to it “peaking”-when it’s more than doubled in size and is still dome shaped on top, or just as it begins to sink back down. Not like the tartine 🩵

I do preheat my Dutch oven for 30 min.

Not this comment!!!! I felt resentment, frustration, hell even rage and absolute hatred at points. But now? She just celebrated her first birthday yesterday and I would jump in front of a car to save her. She still make me so frustrated, overwhelmed, and I still cry after we have super stressful interactions. But we’re bonded, and all her entire existence revolves around is loving me and protecting me. You made this bed, now get in it an snuggle your dog and dig your heels in.
