    Want to try a new way of preparing my dough, came over Vito’s video on double fermentation. Does this look like a good recipe to follow?

    Cheers.

    In my opinion, as a traditionalist, you’re over-complicating things. The difference between direct and indirect fermentation is marginal on flavor compared to the amount of effort. If you’re after a significant difference in flavor, sourdough is the only option in my opinion, and is worth the effort. Keep it simple.

    I’ve made a recipe like this a few times for Vito’s double fermentation. I’ll be interested to know what your opinion of it is, compared to just the standard poolish recipe.
