The leaven looked good, but I didn't take a photo 😳.
I decided with this loaf to use less water. Against the advice in "TARTINE", I have converted the weight measures into cups. It is just my impatience with the scale. Maybe if I had a better scale, but I'm not at the point where I am willing to invest in a scale. Maybe I should put it on my Christmas list?
Anyway, somehow everything still looks the same at the turning, so fingers crossed, it will be better when I turn it out.
Turned out.
First form - done in 2 minutes, much easier.
Second forming. Still easy.
Into the preheated pot. It still stuck to the bottom of the towel, even with tonnes of flour. Impossible to cut ears. Maybe I need to reduce the water even more.
Beautifully baked.
Nice crumb, but flatter than I wanted. I think maybe I should use a smaller pot - less spread?
It was delicious. My best loaf yet. I will continue to work on my proportions.
