I kneaded the sourdough this morning for 8 minutes and it passed the window pane test.I got it in the 9x5 loaf pan rising for a couple hours and my friend called,she was driving her 95 year old aunt to put flowers on her husbands grave and car wouldn't crank.So my husband and I went to help.Ended up calling a wrecker (my husband thinks fuel pump is bad)because the battery turned over with no problem.Now back to my bread,I forgot about it or I would have put it in the refrigerator.when I got home 3 hours later it had risen a good inch and a half over the top and had fell to the side like handles.When I slashed the top it fell to even with the top of pan and didn't rise back up all the way but it's still a good loaf of bread.I wish it hadn't sat on the counter so long but all's well.I'll be happy for fresh toast in the morning.
