Hello I baked this loaf last night, and I took some pictures to put on
my website.
Here it is if you are interested to take a sneaky peak:

Can't really see on the pictures but the loaf is over 2Kg, scaled at
2400gr.

For those interested with the recipe, here it is:

- Flour
- Water
- Salt
- Sourdough Starter

Mix, ferment, shape, proove, cut and put in a very hot place (eg.
oven)

I was quite surprised with the results personally.

Cheers!

Lovely.

And my favorite recipe, too. I use it all the time!

Nice work. Very handsome loaf, and nice photos as well.

Is the rich hue from a long baking cycle or from flour with malt. It
almost looks like it was baked in a wood fired oven. Very rustic.

Hope it tastes good too.

Well spotted, it was baked on a wood fired oven, For about an hour.
It is very tasty and it keeps long, I'm having a few slices everyday
and the loaf seems to never end!

Imagine if you could get that in supermarkets instead of wonderbread

Very impressive Viince. I see what Patrycja sees in it. Classic photo
with the peel. Meister Stanis aw really should wear more clothes. Oh,
and you really must have needed a pee - tidaly om pom pom.

Most envious.
That is really gorgeous bread.
Later you might want to share pix of the wood oven if possible.
Thanks for sharing the photos.

That's the front of the oven.
It's undirectly heated through a firebox underneath the sole.

Meister Stanislaw really should wear more clothes.

Reminds me of a joke:

On a tour of the galley, I encoutered a half-naked baker who was pressing
flattened dough to his pimpled chest, then placing a raisin in each indentation.
"That's how we make cookies here, he explained."
"Aaargh", said I.
"Well then", said he, "you should come see us make doughnuts."

Oh, and you really must have needed a pee - tidaly om pom pom.

Is that french, or what?

Beautiful loaf; I looked through your entire photo album and all the
loaves are beautiful! Did you take any photos of the finished focaccia?

nice one!


Anyway Meister stanislaw doesn't have to wear clothes on the summer.
He's the oven man. And you never bother the oven man cause he's the
one who can **** your bread


Oh, and you really must have needed a pee - tidaly om pom pom.

I didn't get that one either.
I'd say portuguese.

Viince, Dicky not being English not getting it I can understand.
You're English. I'm referring to the picture of you hugging the toilet
sign in Blackpool. 'Oh I do like to be beside the seaside...blah, blah
tidaly om pom pom.' Maybe I'm making it up or just plain confused or
maybe just older than I like to think. lol.

OkaY I'm getting it! how was I supposed to know you watched all me
albums
I know I drink lots of tea but I'm not really english.

I'm starting to realize that I'm wrong, there are lots of people with
good sense of humour!!

Yeah I know it was very tenuous.

What do you mean you're not 'really' English? I'm never quite sure
what 'English' is when you get down to it. It tends to mean Saxon if
you speak to the Welsh or Scottish but that could mean you were from
Dresden. For me it just means I was born in England. Bet you wish
you'd never said anything. lol.

Jim

By that I mean that English is not my mother language I've been in
england for 4 years.
