Bread Porn
The bread I was making the other day came out wonderfully. I feel a little silly for the number of happy dances I've done over it, but I seriously thought it was going to be a semi-edible brick, and it turned out to be one of the better loaves I've ever made. This baking in the dutch oven thing is pretty cool. The big thing I'd change is I'd actually want it a bit more sour. I swapped half the water for starter, and I was afraid this was going to go too sour. Next time, I think I'm going to do the whole rise out of the fridge instead of half in and half out.

Here's some pictures. Unfortunately, the pictures I have that show the grain of it inside are all kind of blurry.

Did yours come out of the dutch oven okay? Every damn time I've tried to make that bread, I've had to CHISEL the bottom of the loaf off the pot.

It has consistently popped right out with no prodding. We preheated the dutch oven really well, and, I think, spritzed it with a little oil before putting the dough in.

Hm. I cornmealed mine. Next time, I'll try oiling.
