    Hi, Fiona. It’s been a while since you posted this video, but I just wanted to provide you and your viewers some positive feedback.

    This has become my go to recipe/method and I can easily work it into my workday schedule. I feed my starter in morning and leave on counter while I go to work, mix my dough and do my stretch and folds after work, then into the fridge. Next morning I shape my dough and pop it back into the fridge for final proof. I pull it out after work and prep for baking. My husband loves the seeded version.

    I've been making sourdough bread for a couple years now using a couple different recipes/methods, but I just pulled 2 blog-worthy loaves out of the oven using YOUR recipe/process. We all know there's nothing hurried about sourdough recipes but I had never experienced your recipe's dough texture. It was much more wet and sticky but it created the most chewy, flavorful, superior crumb I've ever made! Rendering a fresh starter overnight to begin the bread was rewarding as the starter floated in water and was possibly one of the reasons for the impressive spring. I'm a fan!

    as Austrians we're used to bake sourdough bread containing rye and wheat, which makes it really strong in flavor. You can find wheat breads too, but usually not on a sourdough basis rather than on a a yeast basis. I'm glad I found that recipe. It is really delicious and extremely soft and surprisingly "juicy". Due to my limited time I modified this recipe a little bit with dry yeast though, but it turned out great as well. I have had some sourdough left, but not that active as the one in the video, so I thought give it a try and add some yeast. it was totally worth it and it only took 4 hours to rest (stretching included).
