Gasp! Bread that’s not gorgeous?!? What am I posting? How can I show people that I am an amazing/perfect baker?!?
Life is about recovery and learning from failure.
This bake just got away from me. A 75% hydration is fraught with potential failure points, and I hit them pretty well. The final proof was too long (was distracted with a more pressing activity) and then the dough stuck to the couche.
The crumb is at least decent.
