Any Home Bakers Here?

I messed up my SD bread and am starting over. I forgot to do the stretch-and-fold part yesterday before putting it on the warm back porch to rise overnight (it was about 80°F in the afternoon when I set it out). I couldn't figure out why it had such an awful, sticky texture when I got up this morning and was ready to shape it. I pitched it and started over.

I would have deflated it,,,,,, folded it a few times,, and shaped it,, on a well flour dusted surface. Set to rise again but probably not as long. The yeasts have multiplied and grown in your dough already, so rise time may be shorter. Then baked as usual. JMHO.
Experimenting with a last chance is a good option.

2 cups of river rice

Could I use brown rice instead? I always have that on hand. I know it would take longer to cook.

Possibly. I haven’t experimented with this recipe, so you could try.
Make sure to not scramble the eggs in it though. It tastes the same though

I considered doing that, Rich. But my energies are limited. I decided I'd rather start over and end up with guaranteed good bread rather than expend my efforts on something that may or may not turn out, and then have to start over anyway, having wasted a whole day. Tonight's bread looks perfect so I'm happy with my choice. Will bake two good loaves tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Sine we were talking RICE here earlier,,,,,, I decided to make some in my Rice Cooker. 30 minutes later, and I was eating
This is not a recipe,,, but rather an IDEA,, of what I slapped together. First pix shows ingredients,
I used one cup of Yellow Rice. (Sam's carries that particular rice, maybe other stores as well) About 3/4 cup Quinoa, and topped that with Vermicelli. The Vermicelli I find, comes in small envelopes. There is still enough in that envelope for another equal round of same.
That second cup with quinoa and vermicelli did have a hill to it.
In my rice cooker I use 1 part dry ingredients to 1½ liquid.
Stovetop, I usually go with 1 part dry to 2 parts liquid. Assuming more liquid evaporates on stovetop.

Tasted delish with dinner.
