I may or may not have neglected my 5yr old starter in the fridge for a year. I decided to revive it last week and I somehow ended up with one of my best looking loafs ever?

I think it may have ended up slightly underproofed and texture was also a little gummy but overall pretty tasty!

Recipe followed, I used 100g of starter. I also did 10hrs of bulk fermentation in the fridge after 2hrs of 4 stretch & folds on the counter.
