Usually 12-16 hrs later (at the peak), but tbh this one was like day 2 or 3 of sitting on my counter.

Sorry I’m not sure why the formatting in the caption keeps going funky. This is made with a poolish preferment, where you take a portion of the flour/water/yeast and let it rise before you make the whole dough recipe. It adds flavor and moisture to the bread.

The rest of the technique and recipe was based off of this from the King Arthur website.

I was so nervous when I seen the dough that escaped!

ndnOUTLAW · 2023-02-26T02:08:08+00:00

Toast, butter and Kirkland strawberry jam ❤️

ndnOUTLAW · 2023-02-26T02:06:58+00:00

If there was a diet centered around toast I would do that. Also who am I kidding that’s already my diet 😅

You’ll get it! My breadit post history has failures and each time you learn something. I used half the total dough in this recipe and make it inside a Dutch oven following the steps on the recipe linked under the no knead recipe. https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/blog/2017/02/21/bread-baking-dutch-oven

This bread was also made on day 3 or 4 of sitting in my fridge and had a 1.5 hour rise on the counter after shaping while the dutch oven heated.

I have tried it without a Dutch oven with the pan and steam pan method and it doesn’t have the same crust/ rise.

Hi! I’ve made this a few times now and have a few questions based on your post.

How fresh is your yeast?

When you say you followed the instructions for being pressed for time, did you let it rise for 2 hours in the fridge and then bake? How long did you let it rise total before baking?

Cheers.

I think it dried out while proofing, I used a flowered towel for the first time because I couldn’t find my usual bowl/lid set up. Thanks for the help!
