Bulk rise, overnight in fridge

I decided to try an overnight rise in a refridgerator, about 5C

Dough made up with the recipe I posted previously:

600gm strong flour,
390gm water,
10gm oil
10 gm salt
3 gm yeast

I covered the bowl with cling film and left it for about 10 hours.

The dough rose just less than double. It formed a skin, which may explain the limited rise. Perhaps I might try painting it with oil next time.

The texture was very sticky. I covered my hands with oil and divided it up into two separate lots.

The first I left for a proving rise for about 30 mins. 

The second I left proving for about an hour, mainly to ensure the temperture of the dough rose slightly.

The results were almost the same. 

Taste perfect. 10/10

Size, quite small  7/10

Crumb is quite dense. 9/10

Shapes irregular. Some splitting of the crust. 4/10
