My first attempt at bread baking. I used Kenji's no-knead recipe. Very disappointed in the appearance of the loaf but the flavor and texture were terrific. Used an oval cast-iron dutch oven and put the loaf in it on parchment paper and I'm sure that the paper impinging on the loaf altered the shape. The only yeast I had was from one of those packets you buy in the grocery store. I wasn't sure whether it is the same as what comes in the jars but I measured it out according the recipe. It surely didn't seem like very much yeast at all. I Would love some feedback from you guys on how to improve the next loaf.
PS. I have the Forkish book and have supplies on order for following his methods. But delivery of many of the items is slow due to you know what, so I thought I'd just get my fix by working with this no knead method until the stuff arrives.
