In reply to Mary Williams. It should still work. Make sure your fridge is on colder setting!

Hi, I am wondering if I can bake later on the 3rd day, like after work at 5 pm, if I have proofed overnight in the fridge?

In reply to Catherine Ayotte. It would work! You'd just need to adjust the bake time to make sure it's fully cooked through.

Thank you so much for the easy to follow instructions. I was wondering if it is possible to bake the bread in a regular rectangular loaf pan or not a good idea.

Really, really great recipe. I’ve made it dozens of times, and once you get the shaping down, it comes out looking and tasting beautiful. I really appreciate the checklist too. It’s always taped to the inside of one of my kitchen cabinet doors for easy reference.

In reply to Lincoln Spoor. The bold text is a preview. Bake 17 minutes from step 11 and 23 minutes in step 12 (total of 40 minutes).

You have a typo of sorts in the following paragraph. Is it 17 minutes or 23 minutes?

12 Place the bread on the oven rack, reduce to 400°F and bake for 23 minutes: After 17 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 400°F. Remove the Dutch oven, carefully take out the bread, and set the bread directly onto the oven rack. Bake for an additional 23 minutes.

As an aside, I LOVE this recipe and the corresponding videos. Even without the change for clothes. ;-).
Thank you!

In reply to Heidi Gates. Sometimes the starter just loses potency and you have to restart with a new one. I've had it happen as well.

I have been making this bread for years and it’s always been great. Recently, however, I am not getting a good rise to the loaf. It’s the same starter and I am not doing anything differently. What could be the problem?
