Baking Pro Tips
- Temperature is key: Even a 1°C difference can shift fermentation by an hour or more. Use a probe thermometer for accuracy.
- Autolyse for strength: Mixing only flour and water for 30-60 minutes before adding salt and starter jumpstarts gluten development.
- Preheat thoroughly: Preheat your oven and Dutch oven for at least 45-60 minutes to ensure a stable, high heat.
