My birthday is tomorrow, so I baked a bread for my family to enjoy while celebrating! what do you think?🥰

Ingredients:
* 100g starter
* 300g water
* 400 all-purpose flour
* 9,6g salt

  1. Mixed the starter and water, then added the flour.
  2. Let the dough rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
  3. After 1 hour, added the salt and performed 4 rounds of stretch-and-folds, spaced 30 minutes apart.
  4. After the final stretch-and-fold, let the dough sit at room temperature for about 3 hours. Shaped the dough and placed it in the fridge overnight (about 16 hours)
  5. Baked in a Dutch oven: Preheated the DO at446F/230C, baked 30 minutes with the lid on (added water to the oven for steam). 20 minutes with the lid off at 428F/220C.
