Success except for one thing ...

Latest round of high-hydration sourdough (Danni bread) baked in Dutch ovens was a success ... except that I forgot the salt. 

I'm soldiering through one bland loaf. The other one will be used for croutons. A little olive oil, salt, and spice, and no one will ever know that I forgot the salt.

Sometimes I’ll measure out all the ingredients and lay them out in bowls. As well I check then off on my list, so I don’t forget to add something.

I am so glad to hear I am not the only one! I usually weigh/measure out my salt and put it into a shot glass near my mixer. Sometimes I hold it in my hand as the mixer is running.

But when I have forgotten it, I just use salted butter or a little cheese to compensate. Croutons work, also. Bread pudding? Sweet or savory-tastes great with a good bread!
