I tried something new and decided to let my dough bulk ferment overnight. Knowing it may over ferment. It was LARGE when I woke up and deflated while I was shaping. Figured it would bake and be flat as a pancake. Had one of my best rises yet!! Also to note, I used my starter straight out of the fridge. Last feed was a week ago and I placed it in the refrigerator at peak. I’ll share a photo once I cut into it later. 😋
100g starter
500g bread flour
360g water
10g salt
Mixed starter and warm water.
Added flour and mixed well. Let sit for 45 minutes.
Added salt and splash of water, mix
Stretch and folds every 30 minutes x 3
Let bulk overnight for about 10 hours (dough temp before I went to bed was 72 degrees)
Shaped and placed in refrigerator for about an hour.
Baked at 450 for 30 minutes with lid
425 for 15 minutes without li.
