My favorite part of Conway’s diagram was always the domain expertise, and I think the article makes a good case for it.

Sunday #sourdough
500g flour
400g water
20g starter
10g salt

12h bulk fermentation
10h cold proof

Less starter yields a slower rise during bulk fermentation, but even if I allow for less rise, the loaf has high—perhaps higher—oven spring.

Baking sourdough bread is a lot like raising a child: very forgiving if you put in the time

Today’s sourdough:

Crumb could still be improved with a more even distribution, but the texture and flavor are great.

A deeper score noticeably improves oven spring.

375g water

I’m experimenting with hydration and proofing times to improve oven spring and open crum on my sourdough bread.

This is
500g flour
360g water (72% hydration)
50g starter
10g salt

Cold proof 12 hours
