In my method, proportionally more of the rise comes from “oven spring,” rather than “proofing.”\u00a0 Traditional bread methods get more proofing rise than we do.\u00a0 Proofing<\/strong> is the time that the shaped loaf spends just sitting and waiting for the oven.\u00a0 Oven spring<\/strong> is the sudden expansion of gasses within the pores of the loaf that occurs upon contact with the hot oven air and the stone or other hot surface that you might be using.<\/p>\n

Don’t be surprised if you don’t see a whole lot of rise during proofing with our method. <\/strong> You’ll still get a nice rise during the oven spring, so long as you didn’t over-work the dough while shaping.\u00a0 Make sure your oven’s up to temperature by checking with a thermometer like this one on Amazon.<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 If the oven is too cool or too hot, you won’t get proper oven spring.<\/p>\n

If you’re still not happy with the final result– if it seems to dense and under-risen, check under “Dense Crumb” FAQ.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
