So I didn't even make it to the rising stage before I threw this first batch out. It seems when you dont follow a recipe it can make for disaster at times. I am sure I will wake up tomorrow with dough oozing out of the garbage and onto my floor! I had read about letting your flour and water rest and not worrying about kneeding it and thought I would give it a try HOWEVER I think you need to add a different kind of yeast to that because when I added yeast in water to this mix it just got all sloshy and goopy.
Second french bread in the resting stage now. This time I have mixed all ingredients and am letting it rest for the gluten strands to form. I plan on letting it rise, putting it in the fridge, and then trying the baking tomorrow.
