That looks so good. 🤤 I'll have to try this Test Kitchen recipe. Normally I use one from King Arthur but it's fun to experiment.
It's great. One thing I did, that I recommend (I've made this same recipe around 3 times now) is using fresh compressed baker's yeast instead of instant. I just prefer it more, and that shit rises like crazy.
The conversion is 1 tsp of instant yeast = 8.5g of fresh compressed yeast.
I think it tastes and smells better, and it rises much faster. (really makes the 24 hour wait for the dough worth it, otherwise I sometimes go even a bit longer than 24 when I use instant yeast) (depends on your fridge temperature, of course - mine was at 4 degrees Celsius)
