About to bake my first loaf, cross your fingers for me!!


This is my first ever sourdough loaf. I got some active starter from someone on fb market after failing to create my own. It’s made with AP flour and I added one cup of whole wheat bread flour to the dough along side AP. Only other ingredient is salt and water. It’s a “same day” bake, so I made the dough this morning, let it ferment/rise for about 7 hours, shaped in in a loaf pan in the fridge for about an hour, and now it is baking on a baking stone with water inside for steam.

    Cool scoring technique. I’d ease up on covering it with so much flour. It’ll be a pain to dust it all off while eating.
