Day 1

Day 2

I'm using Hamelman's sourdough baguette formula. For the scoring I use a blade on a stick. It's hard to get results without regular practice, I'm trying to do it at least once a week. 

For scoring tips and tutorials I read Hamelman's Bread, Michel Suas' Advanced techniques and dmsnyder's really helpful tutorial (http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/10121/bread-scoring-tutorial-updated-122009).

Hey, everyone!

My name is Renata and I've been reading TFL for a long time, always thinking about being a part of the community. And now it's the time for it. I want to learn more about sourdough bread and improve my technique.

This one is my regular whole-wheat sourdough. I wasn't happy with the scoring in this one, the loaf was underproofed. But the flavor and texture were nice.
