This is a great recipe! I've made a few loaves from other recipes that came out denser.
I followed the recipe to the “T” apart from having to go round with the loaf because my Lodge Dutch oven is round, so I used a round stainless steel bowl inside and I use parchment paper instead of greasing the pan. Other than that, it came out awesome. Thank you!

Yes indeed! You've helped me so much too! I thought for a while that I couldn't get a light and fluffy sourdough loaf with fresh milled flour. But that all changed when I found you. Thanks Elly! And God bless you and your family

From now on, in my house, this bread (or any pan loaf with oven spring like that) will be known as Eye of Sauron Bread 😄

Thank you Elly! You’ve really helped with my sourdough bread baking. This is a straightforward method that I’ll be trying on my next bake. That’s a really beautiful loaf!

Hello Elly, just want to say Thank You! I have been trying to make a 100% wholegrain sourdough in a bread pan for quite a while since getting my MockMill without luck until now! Your recipe and method is Fantastic! So grateful to you. God Bless! I wish I could send a picture of it lol I’m kind of proud lol

Thank you once again. I found you youtube a long time ago, and followed your recipe for making sourdough starter with pineapple juice. Still going strong 18 months later. I paid a minor fortune for spelt flour a few days ago to make this bread using the eau bassinage method—-new to me. Golly, I love the spelt flour to work with and to eat, I found out. So, I have just ordered a Mockmill using your discount. Not available until the end of June, but OK about that. Over time, I will save the minor fortune by buying the whole grain ($10 for 5 pounds vs $35 for 5 pounds!). I used the eau bassinage method again making seeded sourdough bread (James Morton, who was on the Great British Baking Show, and it came out so very well, better than before.)Thank you so many times for the help you have given me since December 2020, pandemic times.

When you add the starter to water and flour it's called FERMENTOLYSIS , it's called autolysis when it's just water and flour nothing else

I made this dough and put it in the fridge in a bread pan. It is a very high hydration dough. My stoneground wholemeal Spelt flour was not home-milled so I used 15ml less water. The dough looked similar to yours until I tried to shape it. There was no way I could have rolled it out, or rolled it up. It was far too wet and sticky. I have read the comments and other people had the same experience - a formless sticky mass. However, my loaf came out really well. I inverted another bread pan on top of the pan I baked it in, and just took it off for 10 minutes. My loaf has a lovely shiny brown top crust.

I think your video will help me love working with my spelt flour again. Seems a very sticky dough so dense in the bake. I also live using a loaf pan.. I am going to use your recipie. Thank you! 🥰

This recipe turned out really good. I've already tried some other recipes from your channel but this one and the Burrum one (spelt, wheat and rye) are my favourites. Thank you for the instruction you are giving. Kind regards from Austria.

I have been introducing and mixing spelt flour with my normal flour for my sourdough and YES have been using your technique EVERY time and EVERY time it works. So will need to buy me some more Spelt to try THIS bread....tfs and I bet it was yummo and hope you were high and dry during the rains
