After getting all of your super helpful feedback, I've decided to give the Tartine recipe another go. I was having problems achieving a good spring: https://weightloss-slim.fit/node/67063/oven-spring-help.%C2%A0 %3C/a%3E;%3C/p%3E%3Cp%3ESee below for my latest. I'm so happy with it! Some changes I made:
- Knocked hydration down to 76%
- Scored deeper and more to the center
- Sprayed loaf with warm water (not sure if this did much)
I'm pretty surprised at the outcome since I thought I butchered the dough during shaping.
Thanks again for everyone's help here!
I thought your initial bakes looked great, and this one is beautiful too! Great ear.
Gorgeous loaf, awesome ear, crust and crumb. Great improvements CGB.
Happy Baking
