Sometimes things don't go according to plan

but that's why you watch the dough and not the clock. I usually like to give my starter 2-3 feeds before I work with it, but this passed weekend I rushed it and was only able to feed it once. This messed with my fermentation time table, but I was still able to produce a sourdough with great flavor and a wonderfully textured crumb. 

Moral of the story, trust your eyes and the feel of the dough. 

At 1.2 or 3 feedings - if it is near at or over its peak slightly it is good enough to raise a loaf of of tasty bread.. This one one of yours is no exception,

Happy baking
