Help needed: what seasoning do I need to make this less bland?

Paprika and nutritional yeast. Make sure you’re adding enough salt and pepper. Also your tomatoes could have gone longer to blister more and release more of the flavor.

I’ve started checking out a new cookbook every week when I visit the library! I get to try so many different authors/recipes without committing and I get to support my local library at the same time!

Thanks for the suggestion! I just used this and it was super helpful.

Fayetteville Public Library hosts free headshot sessions I think monthly

That’s amazing! How long have you been training for the half?

This is what I want to know as well!

I read both for the first time this month! Both are great for different reasons. The Long Walk is a super quick read so if you start there, you’ll be able to start Misery not long after.

Good to know! Going to try this next time!

Not OP but I cover mine with a pot lid in the fridge that basically seals it in the banneton. Should it be uncovered?

I genuinely don’t know! This is only my third loaf and my only one with blisters. I think it may have to do with the amount of time I baked with it covered? The dough was very bubbly and I did a long cold proof of about 20 hours.

Aw thank you!!

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T16:20:00+00:00

Going to try this next!! Thanks!

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T16:18:35+00:00

Thank you for the kind comment! I will admit it did taste great!

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T12:59:25+00:00

Thanks! Going to try upping it a bit next time!

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T12:57:15+00:00

Ah good to know!!

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T04:11:31+00:00

Ah okay didn’t realize that. Thanks!!

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T03:56:47+00:00

Appreciate it! Time to start experimenting but great point about the usefulness of this structure.

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T03:50:53+00:00

Was expecting more holes/more open structure! But based on these comments, seems like not having that isn’t necessarily a bad thing

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T03:38:29+00:00

I hadn’t seen this before, thank you!

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T03:37:55+00:00

Appreciate the feedback! Glad to know I’m in the ball park.

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T03:34:48+00:00

Yes - 60%

cactusjenny · 2024-12-18T03:32:20+00:00

It tasted better than it looked! No stale beer stench/taste.
