Today's bake: Sourdough Tin Loaf

Straight WBF sourdough sandwich bread for my egg salad. Nothing fancy. Thanks for looking and best wishes. Dave

Looks perfect to me. Great sheen on the crust, too.  Egg yolk? Or just good oven steam?

I baked it in a roasting pan for the first 15 minutes, trying for a roundy top crust.

I like that sheen effect.  I only get it when there's enough moisture early in the bake. I don't think it affects the taste or mouth feel but I like the appearance.

And look at the blisters! It's a thing of beauty, all right.

Artisan bread is delicious, but you've gotta have soft sandwich bread for egg salad. It's a law.
