Beautiful bake, with amazing scoring! And a very nice breadscore!
A project, learning experience for me.
I have a favor to ask. If you have had a chance to see @JoAnn Amato Chicago cookbook, I would like to try to do a Sourdough Improvement cookbook. It may takes 6 months to do but I have time. So how can you help me you ask? If you could give me your favorite sourdough bread recipe to put in my cookbook. I would either need the recipe written out or the link to it. If you do not want to that is okay too. To be honest I am trying to learn something new to keep my mind sharp, and I think it would be fun.

I’m definitely going to have to think on this! I mostly use other people’s recipes, and then adapt them for myself. I’ll have to look for the ones that I have changed enough to call mine
Cinnamon Raisin Sandwich Loaf
May I get a bread score please? Used the recipe for my small Pullman loaf, 375g strong bread flour, 250g whole milk, 90g starter, 8g salt, 25g sugar, and 50g melted butter. Mixed in about 75g of raisins during 2nd and 3rd stretch/fold. Cinnamon swirl was added during shaping....75g brown sugar, 5g cinnamon, 30g bread flour, and 30g milk....made into a paste. The thing I think I am most proud of....not a bit of a leak in the pan, no raisin escaped, and no cinnamon/sugar burnt. I'm so pleased with the taste and the over all crumb, just need a better distribution of raisins, and the swirl. And yes I was so excited I cut into it before taking any pics!
