Thanks so much for this recipe! I am having so much fun playing with the starter a friend gave me on Thanksgiving day. My first try at this was good, but, one, I think my starter was too stiff for this recipe if going by exact measurements (I live a mile up on the high plains, so that likely didn't help either) and so there wasn't enough moisture in the dough, and two, I got interrupted/delayed during the last proofing and there was little bounce or rise, so I think it was over-proofed. However, it was still really good food if not the acme of the breadmaker's art. (It was gone within 34 hours--both loaves!--so I consider that a respectable attempt. Today is my second try, and thank you for the many pictures in your blog--I'm going home on lunch to rescue the dough from a second rest in the fridge and a little proofing time before forming loaves, which will then proof while I work a couple more hours this evening before eagerly running home to bake. I am having SO. MUCH. FUN. And then I get to eat the bread! What could make it any better? Thank you again!
