gcs OP trapper G Joined: Dec 2006 coastal ny	Finally got my starter perking along, so attempted my first bake yesterday...I actually got a loaf that looks like the pictures of how it's supposed to look!, lol Needs a few tweaks but it worked as advertised... and it tastes like sourdough is supposed to. Can i be in the sourdough club now?.....

The "ear" was a little extreme, looked more like a mohawk LOL. But it was lighter with holes throughout. United we stand.

I have a nephew that bakes it like a science project, and my SIL kind of wings it, lol , they both seem to come out ok, I used bulk measurements and it seemed to work good enough, I think I just needed a little better rise and less baking time...
