Stretch & Fold after bulk fridge retarding

Toast

Hi Freshloafers

just wondering if anyone has mixed dough, then put in in the fridge for a bulk retarding and did the stretch and folds the next day in the morning, and then divide, pre shape, shape and for a midday bake

thanks in advance for any thoughts/insight

I would do it if I would think that the dough needs more strength but the cold dough is stiffer so it is hard to asses this. However, if you do it as you propose I don't see a problem with that.

Happy baking,

Joze
