I think this has shown you what you can do. It's a starting point. Once you forget about bread making as being a mechanical process like programming but a more living process with infinite variables then I think you'll find it more of a form of expression and art rather than just a science. If you continue to concentrate on the principles and forget about recipes you will then be able to make any loaf you would ever want by simply thinking and feeling your way through.

Well, here you go:



I wonder if maybe my dough is too wet. I am adding more water than you'd initially suggested. But I think the real test of that is whether I can shape the loaf and have it keep its shape. Right?
