Hi all! After trying my hand at sourdough on and off for about half a year and being almost ready to give up, I finally baked what I consider a good loaf. I am posting it here since I am quite proud, but also know that there is much room for improvement so all comments are welcome.
Recipe: 500g bread flour 310g water 150g starter 10g salt
- 1 hour autolyse
- 7 hour bulk ferment at 22c
- Overnight cold retard
- Baked 20min covered at 500f, 25min uncovered at 450f
Cheers!

Looks great!
Did you preheat your baking dish/dutch oven?
Congrats!
I’m still in my trying and failing era. Happy to see you succeed!!
Congrats on the success! Its a little bit underproofed so id extend bulk. At 22c id expect 9-10ish hours to be necessary
Yay!! I know the feeling and the pain!
Looks wonderful! Great job
