Underproofed bread and how to fix it
Hi, I haven't made bread is ages, and when I did it never really turned out well. I somehow managed to get that oven spring in this one. The sourdough flavour is a little strong, but not too bad. However, I think it's a little underproofed.
I used this recipe
- 500g bread flour
- 300g water (plus extra if needed)
- 10g salt
- 100g mature starter (suggested starter build 1:5:5 for 12 + hours overnight.
Any tips? I put it in the fridge around 6pm for overnight and cooked at 9am at 450 covered for 20 min and 425 for 35 min.
Thanks.
Always hard to tell from a picture - but - how long was it out of the oven before you cut into it? Enjoy!
