I was able to rescue some overproofed rustic sourdough bread dough. Maybe it helped that this bread had some commercial yeast. The other thing that might have helped was that the overproofing happened at the bulk stage, so I gave it another rise before the shaping stage. Anyway, the bread turned out fine. Thank you, King Arthur!
