First possible fumble in a while in my #SourDough bread #adventuresInBaking journey… didn’t exactly “incorporate until no dry flour remains” when mixing it in with the levain and water (Tartine recipe). IDK why I rushed it.

Two folds later, I’m still trying to break up the lumps I’m finding in the dough.

Ah, well. If these two come out too poorly to present to a friend or neighbor, that’s more bread for me to slather butter/honey/peanut butter/Fluff/Nutella/etc on for myself.

…film at 11.

Argh: pre-shaped dough bubbly but very floppy. I think over fermented—AGAIN! Not taking any chances: loaded in to loaf pans it went for possible further rising (and shape maintenance), then into the oven. #lemonade #sourDough #adventuresInBaking
@rusto88 Success, I hope. Bet it will still taste nice.

@LikeItOrLumpIt Hehe, I have relatively low standards when it comes to bread taste—I’m sure it’ll pass muster for ME.

Hoping time will allow those dry chunks to get hydrated… maybe the “tiny time pills” of yeast-friendly “food” will help prevent over-fermentation (a problem I’ve had from time-to-time).

@rusto88

Got to love bread making. It's an experiment every time!

@LikeItOrLumpIt That’s what I love about it!

@rusto88

Can't wait to see your pics. (hope I don't miss it)
