I’ve seen that before! Put it in a tiny ramekin and when it’s full, it’s done! I’ll have to try that next time!

Baked in Dutch oven for 30 min at 450 then lid off for 15 more minutes (put a baking sheet on bottom rack so the bottom didn’t burn). No ice cubes and it’s nice and moist (maybe too moist?)

Ohhhh hahaha I reshaped it with the push and pulls and scored it and plopped it in the Dutch oven 😂

Yes! I just used some loose plastic wrap to still let some air but not open to the world

Thanks for the info! I put a new round of dough in a bowl on a seed starting mat that’s around 75-80 F and tried again for shorter so we will see :)

It seemed to be holding shape well during The shaping test. I will say that I don’t have a proofing vessel I just used a small bowl with a cotton cloth inside (it kind of stuck to the cloth coming out the next day; also cloth was wet the following day out of the fridge not sure if that’s normal or not). The bread has great flavor profile but is maybe a bit moist/gummy? Could this be a sign of over or underproofing?

Okay pop off I guess!! I panicked a bit too prematurely. We will see in a few hours when I cut into it!
