My wife believes (a) each nerd basket has its own personality since they're porous, (b) initial gluten formation or whatever the fuck needs to be done very symetrically for good crumb, and (c) the final rise is more about stretching the glutens into the pan shape and then letting it rise into the pan.
Thing is, I beat someone in a public taste-off who literally built their own brick oven, ground their own shit, and had their own yeast strain with literally a goodwill $20 bread machine. Basic white, a bit heavy on oil, rest, rise, roll out square, dried wild blueberries + cinnamon and sugar + butter, roll it up, cinnamon blueberry swirl bread suck my dick hippie faggot
But I also concede my wife has valid points so I'm truly conflicted on this one
