A matter of not judging a book by its cover–this loaf looks nearly perfect on the outside but is a bit small and feels denser than I’d like. The problem being that it just never really hit a phase of fast rising where the activity surpasses the detrimental effects of acid on the gluten. Decisions were made and a slightly dense loaf was chosen over a loaf that went too long and could no longer hold any shape.
