I tried my first ever commercial San Francisco sourdough
OK, bought at Lidl, £1.99 (less 20% after 19:00).
My thoughts were, the flavour of mine was very similar, although I could taste more than a hint of malt. My starter was purchased as a San Francisco Sourdough so that shouldn't be too surprising although I thought it would have gone native by now.
The oven spring was so much better, and the crust was crisp and crunchy, mine tends to be too soft, although the colour is good.
The crumb was much more open, I know I under proofed the last one, usually it's more open.
My conclusion is to pay more attention to the proofing time in the banneton, and use less steam for less time in the oven.
Happy baking all.
