No, seriously consume fresh baked bread. If you learn the principals(and measure by weight) you can have high quality bread with only five minutes of hands on work and minimal cleanup(one bowl, spoon optional, no surface cleaning). Baking is a highly underrated skill in the modern day.
How long were you cold fermenting for? The lower tempetures will slow down the process and change the way the dough handles, it might be that you just weren't giving it enough time or you aren't preshaping and doing a final proof.
