My recipe for decorative scoring: 325g warm filtered water (my kitchen is usually 73 degrees so I heat the water to 90 degrees) 10g salt 110g starter 475g flour – mix, wait 30 mins, 1 round of stretch and folds, wait 30 mins, 3 rounds of coil folds over the next 1.5hrs, bulk ferment (I have a warm kitchen so usually 4 hours), lightly shape, bench rest 20 mins, shape and into the rice flour dusted basket, stitch after 10mins, covered and into the fridge overnight (12-15hrs), 1hr preheat at 500 degrees (Dutch Oven inside on Pizza Stone), 30mins into preheat pop the loaf in the freezer, when oven is ready, loaf onto dough sling, brush off loaf, spray and evenly wet loaf, rice flour sprinkle and rub, decorative score, into the oven for 6-7mins, expansion score, back in with lid on for 15mins, lid off temp down to 475 for 15-20mins
