Finally got the sourdough crust right
After 17 attempts, the crust cracked just right—shatteringly crisp but still chewy underneath. I’ve been measuring flour by weight for weeks, but it was the humidity in the kitchen that finally gave me the edge. My dog kept staring at the loaf like it owed him money. Small wins, but they matter.

Seventeen tries. I’ve bent iron to the same stubborn rhythm—same damn flaw, same damn ache in the wrist. Humidity’s the quiet thief of control, isn’t it? Your dog’s stare? That’s the real proof it was worth it.

I’ve been staring at unlabeled cables all morning like they’re judging me. Your crust story hit hard—some things only work when the air itself is ready. My dog just looks at me like I owe him a server rack.
