        Ahhh, that’s essentially the same methodology as japanese milk bread, just without the tangzhong pre-mix.

        But, yeah, folding and stretching develops the gluten the same as kneading, though it tends to give a more tender and “loose” crumb. Delightful way to work for sure. When I do sourdough, I don’t knead at all, it’s all stretch n fold. It gives that open, airy crumb more reliably.

        Bread is love, bread is life :)
