First time ever, used my brand new Dutch Oven I won't from a work raffle (who pays $500 for a Le Creuset. Wife brought home the starter after a workshop for her team.

125 g starter
362 ml warm H20
12~ g salt
500 g flour

Mixed in order of recipe. Tucked and folded 4 times last night every 45 min. Left out over night, tucked 2 more times this morning before baking off. It sat for 20 min, tightened the dough one last time before going in the 450F Dutch oven.

Cooked 450F covered for 35 min, 425F uncovered for 15 min.

Prob cut corners and cooked too soon, causing the expansion explosion(?). Needless to say I'm pleased. Found recipe last night on YouTube (https://youtube.com/shorts/QkQLnrnzfKM?si=PphyMZ563i8e6gS4)
