More bread. This time an Everyday Sourdough Boule. It’s very yummy. And kind of pretty, actually too.
I’ve been playing around a bit more with “right sizing” my bread recipes for the vessel that I am baking them in. Meaning, sorting out the baker’s ratio for a loaf with 3 cups, 4 cups and 5 cups of flour, because those are the 3 Dutch Oven sizes that I have. I’ve made the mistake of having the loaf be too big and it hit the lid causing a strange shaped loaf (though it tasted fine). Photographed here is the biggest loaf that I make, in my 6-quart Dutch oven. It’s way too big for a single person, but that is my measuring starting point. Lot’s of stuff to learn in the bread baking department. My Opa would be proud that I gotten more into bread baking though.
