Hi, with this recipe do you not have to activate the yeast in Luke warm water prior to mixing?
Not in this recipe. You mix it together with the lukewarm water and flour all together. Hope this helps!
Excellent, thank you Candice, I’ve made a batch and currently on my first 24hr bulk ferment, fingers crossed will be perfect for when I use it this week. Many thanks for your reply.
My pleasure! And can't wait to hear what you think 🙂
