Michele, l like the rustic look. Great loaf. I don’t do the folds. I just treat it like all my bread. Makes lovely bread sticks, 3. It is the proportions of yeast to water to flour that make it special. This is not one that I muck about with, just make to the recipe.
If I want to add some seeds or grain , I use the No Fuss recipe. Usually replace 100 grams of what ever.
To get a round loaf, stretch the dough over the top by pulling the sides down and under. Pinch together underneath. Play around with it.
