Forgot the salt AGAIN!!!
It's not the first time I've forgotten the salt in my sourdough boule..but this time I had to toss it...
I wasn't sure what was wrong when it came out of the mixer, only that it was incredibly sticky. I perservered and did some half hearted s&f's and let it sit overnight in fridge. It didn't look much better in the morning but I carried on. After 15 minutes in the oven I lifted off the clay pot I use for steam and it looked even worse..I've never seen a cow patty but I have a feeling that's the shape I had.
I'm pretty sure I left the salt out..I don't add much, only 4g in a 500g boule and yet it made all that difference?
