100g Active (established) sourdough starter

400g Warm filtered water (80° to 85°F) I find Costco flour always needs a bit more water added

500g Creative baker unbleached bread flour

10g salt

Mix starter and water together to get a milky consistency

Add flour and salt and mix to get a shaggy dough. Let rest covered for 1 hour.

Do 4 rounds of stretch and folds 30 minutes apart.

Bulk ferment on counter for an additional 6 hours(74-75F)

Shape and put into a banneton basket place covered in the fridge overnight 12-24hrs

Baked in Dutch oven preheated for 45mins @500

20mins covered @500F

20mins uncovered @450F

Feels nice to finally get my starter and bulk fermentation on track after a cold house and cold outside

    You’re supposed to say “help – what did I do wrong that it came out this way? Total noob seeking pointers.”

    Jk – that loaf looks amazing!

    It’s so hard to find normal bread recipes these days, the sourdough shit is everywhere 🙁 I wish people would at least tag this crap so that I could filter it out in search results.
