Thank you for posting this- I wish I had a big covered pot I could use.
I have a round clear pyrex bowl with a lid- it's kinda small, but I
suppose I could try to make a 1# or so loaf- think it's worth a try? I
also have starter, so I would try to use that. Have you tried it?

This recipe calls for 1/4 t yeast, and 1 1/4 t salt. Can that be right? It
seems to me that it should be the other way around...

Not at all, Joe! The whole point of this recipe was to make a very
lomg, slow rise, starting from a very small amount of yeast.

1.5 t salt to my calculated/weighed 524 g of flour is a little under 3%.
I usually use 2%, but this was definately not too much.

If
1.5 t= 1.5 teaspoon.. and .if that is salt then a teaspoon of salt is
about 5 grams then one and half tsp will be 7.5grams divided by 524
grams flour x 100 that is about 1.4% based on flour weight.

OK Dave, I'm going to make a loaf this weekend. What diameter pot did you
use?

I used 10" ID, 8 qt pot, but I think it was a little too large.
Next time, I'll go with a deepish 6 qt.
On the other hand, I was using spelt flour, which doesn't rise or spring
as much as wheat...

Don't mess around with the recipe until you've done it once
the way the creator designed it. Otherwise, you'll never
understand it. Don't use a starter. Don't try to scale it.
Don't try to do it in a small bowl. Do it right once.

I've tried it a few times and I like the results.

<LOL> For a moron, you sure are a moron. I assume that yawn
is a supercilious gesture to show us all how much smarter
you are. Does "crash and burn" have a familiar ring?

Says in that Yaaaaaawwwwnnnnn recipe "Knead it, roll it in
flour and
put it right back in the bowl you mixed it up in. Cover the
bowl and go
to sleep."

Well, you got the "go to sleep" part right even if you
missed the "knead" part.

That recipe has eight ingredients. The above from the Times
has four.

Save your yawns for any more Muppet-like brainstorms you
might have like this. Ooops. Oh look. You've managed to pee
on *both* shoes this time.
