my usual go-to is loaf with inclusions, so it has been a while since the last time i did a basic loaf like this. my baker’s percentage is in the second pic, for each loaf i use 375g of bread flour (nothing fancy, the flour might even be old haha)

as for technique, i swear by The Bread Code’s beginner sourdough video for the past 2 years:
– mix everything, skip autolyse
– rest for 10mins (i do 15mins because i make about 6 loaves at a time)
– stretch and fold for 1-2 mins
– rest for 10-15mins
– laminate
– coil fold after 1 hour (during summer i do 2 coil folds 30mins apart)
– leave the dough to finish bulk ferment
– cold ferment for about 16hrs

baking: 230C fan on, dutch oven for 20mins, out for 20mins rotate every 5mins – small oven.

what’s your go to sourdough recipe?

    how do you find the taste? My usual loaves are with 5—10% whole wheat flour, I’ve made a 100% BF loaf once and it really lacked taste. However I’m experimenting and coincidentally making one just now
