I won't make it again. Wife liked it way more than I did.

The whole thing was lubed with the below.

Ah I see... There was little evidence of that sauce in your pic, but that could've just been due to the angle. Also, I'm a bit of a 'sauce fiend', so I'd have drizzled that (lovely looking sauce, judging by the picture) rather liberally over all the ingredients.

However, you might prefer less - just personal taste:)

Plus homemade blueberry jam. 400g blueberries, 240g sugar. Nothing else.

Awesome can't stop eating it and I am not a jam man.

Loaf could have been prettier but hydration was so high I couldn't shape it. More than 490g of water I quoted above which you should use but I was experimenting.

No fook that. I reckon at least double the sauce was required. Probably triple. But that's getting expensive.

I will say just after I blitzed it, it tasted fab by itself. It lost its way when dumped in with the noodles.

Very high hydration, lots of oil, high gluten flour.

The dough was like a viscous liquid!

Lol, ok... We're on the same page then!

As you'll know yourself though, new recipes don't often come out flawless on the first attempt. They're generally better next time you make them, as you learn how to optimise the combination of ingredients:)

Looks tasty and warming - just what you need on a cold, windy and miserable February evening for dinner.

Liked it so much I’m having it again! Had some sauce left so added some braising steak and did some veg.
