The effect of scoring on loaf shape.

We have had a number of discussions of baking techniques that impact oven spring and how well our cuts bloom. These have mostly focused on oven/stone temperature and oven humidity.

Hi,
I've been doing quite a bit of baking from Peter Reinhart's "Whole Grains" book. I made the Whole Wheat Hearth Bread last night and have been experimenting with additions to the bread - last night's addition was sun-dried tomatoes and basil.
Aargh. I baked this multigrain sourdough in a covered pot in a pre-heated oven. Never considered slashing because the dough was so soft. I haven't cut into it because it was intended to go to a dinner party tomorrow. I may take it anyway because, you know, they're friends.
