soak the raisins

Usually do this for walnut and raisin sourdough (literally white sour with walnuts and soaked raisins folded in).
Have also read about people putting raisins in their preferment/sour too. Might have to try it sometime.

I was about to ask how long the prove was with an enriched dough with no starter, but then I read the recipe, and it has yeast - I'd imagine that having no yeast would make thinga take a bery long time, of they even worked at all.

I've been using discarded immature starter to add flavour to normal yeast loaves this past week. I may try the HCBs tomorrow.
