About eighteen hours proving! The starter was nowhere near active enough, I think. Anyway, into the oven with it, on a hot stone, and plenty of water at the bottom of the oven, to make steam. Halfway through the baking, it&#8217;s supposed to be knocked out of the tin, and continue cooking on the stone. It was stuck to the non-stick tin. Anyway, I put it back in the oven, and let it finish baking in the tin.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-q3mchD27EuQ\/VpjpxrmAniI\/AAAAAAAAhEQ\/nGFLoZt8n28\/s1600\/rye03.jpg\" style=\"clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"240\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-q3mchD27EuQ\/VpjpxrmAniI\/AAAAAAAAhEQ\/nGFLoZt8n28\/s320\/rye03.jpg\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">I<\/span>t was still stuck to the tin.
