first loaf after a long time
I got lazy during the pandemic and stopped baking for a while. I left my starter in the fridge for 6 months or so without feeding. This week I decided to see if I could revive my starter (his name is carl). Fortunately, after a few feedings, Carl perked right up and produced a nice looking loaf. Here are some glamour shots.
It's essentially the Tartine Country Loaf recipe, though I add some rye flour (around 50g).
Beautiful! Looks like Carl didn't mind the time off, lol. Looking forward to seeing the crumb, and most important, your taste test results!
