That is amazing. Most people don't know how difficult it is bake a good loaf of bread. I make passable plain white bread ... it's good but not great.

Yours is a work of art and something to be proud of. Beautiful!

I've been doing this for 5 years and only just starting to have good results (visually; the best part about baking is that even when you fail, it usually still tastes good).

This looks so good

Could I trouble you for the recipe?

[–] Okokimup 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Recipe. I didn't have white spelt, so I replaced that with regular bread flour. I also added 10 grams of vital wheat gluten. I get most of my bread recipes from this site with good results.

That’s awesome. Thank you so much— I am new to baking bread but your pic inspired me to go for it!

Yummy. How it tasted like?

[–] Okokimup 2 points 3 days ago

I haven't actually eaten it yet. I can't use my kitchen sink for a few days, so I made some foods ahead of time and popped them in the freezer.

Looks great! Any reason you didn’t bake it darker? I just started making sourdough regularly. Definitely worth the effort :)

We prefer them blonder.
