Recipe Review

23rd November 2012

Sylviambt from Clear Lake, WI

This has been a year-long obsession with this particular formula. I've made 2-4 loaves a week and have found this recipe virtually bullet-proof. The preferment has been flexible enough to permit stretching to nearly 24 hours (up from the recommended 12) by slowing activity in a cool root cellar.
It's a recipe that does continue to build skills because temperature and hydration require judgement calls on just when to bake. It's a matter of nuance though, not of absolute success or failure.
This is one I highly recommend. Everyone that's tasted it, loves it.
