Good looking loaf you baked up, I’ve not seen sticky black rice before, other than colour is it much different from white sticky rice?

Tastes better for me and adds a better color to the crumb.

This looks like a really interesting bake.  Would love to have seen a crumb shot!  The 36 hour refrigerated fermentation would have really been pushing the limits here for the doughs I usually make, but your loaf seemed to have held up nicely.  How was the taste and texture?

I used only 15% Levain, instead of the 30% levain recipe for an overnight retard
