They said 36 hours but I reckon it was a lot more. I nearly throw the dough away when I tried pre-shape, it was so wet and I though I just couldn't handle it and I nearly cry. Take a look....
Goodness me, I didn't give up and look what came out from the oven.....
and I believe I am blessed. Amen

Well the jury is in... You are a natural!
You baked 3 very different loaves in as many days. Each and every one turned out extremely well. For a self proclaimed novice, you could call them stellar, outstanding.
The photo of the bread in that beautiful bowl against the black background would look nice framed.
Happy Father’s Day, Jon!
Dan
Is wife getting happy with the bread?
I am still on cloud nine, it not perfect but it was wonderful. Do you know that all these baguette is less than 12in long and 2.5in thick? Constraint by my oven size. But I go for a longer one the next round, putting it diagonally across the baking tray and thicker also.
All pics were taken with my iPhone 7, yap the bowl was really lovely. Well, my wife was so proud of my bread, she finally sent the pics to her friends!
Thanks for Happy Father 's Day, wish you and your family a very good Sunday too.
Cheers, Jon

That means a lot of encouragement to me! Have a good Sunday!
Cheers, Jon

Nice bread and happy bakng
Thank you all for your generous compliments and for being so supportive. I am glad to have found this forum which has given me so much supports and encouragements to begin my baker's journey.
