I made a no knead bread dough, put it in the fridge overnight, then into a Dutch oven this morning.

It has risen upwards but I thought it would be 'wider'.

 

Did l handle it too much after taking it from the fridge? I didn't knead it too much I thought.

My hand is there for reference and yes the top got a little overdone 

 

Looks OK to me.

Yup ^^^.

 

Do you have butter and cheese? On my way round ???? 

 

is this what they call sourdough bread? Mrs went to a class on this at the Peninsular hotel last week, not made any yet, still in bed ????

Not sourdough no, it's a basic overnight bread.  I bought a Danish whisk and thought I'd give it a try.

i had the same problem my dough doesn't rise very well, did you use yeast? if so what kind did you use? i use the "PERFECT" brand in most store, came in a small bottle

I used saf instant in a sachet date 2023.

Mine rose up ok but not outward, that's why l thought l may have over kneaded
