Since 2020
I love baking and had some extra time on my hands as no longer commuting for work.
Characteristics
Pretty tangy with a very good crust and a decent open crumb. Used at 50% hydration it is makes nice big loaf used with a higher protein white flour such as a Canadian bread flour and can also raise to a decent size a loaf of 50% white canadian and 50% rye.
