I think I did good for my first loaf! My starter is 12 days old! Was doubling day 6&7 within 6 hours and tripling days 8-11. Today is day 12.
Recipe:
100 g starter
350g water (warm ish)
500g King Arthur bread flour
10g salt (though it came out 13g)
Mixed starter into water, added flour then salt, mixed it until a shaggy dough.
Rested 1 hour.
2 stretch and folds every 30 minutes, 2 coil folds every 30 minutes
bulk fermentation on counter for 6-6 1/2hours when house is at 75 degrees.
12 hours in the fridge
Pre heated my oven and Dutch oven for 50 minutes
Ran out of parchment paper so I put it on a rectangular silicone mat inside my round Dutch oven after it preheated
Baked at 450 for 30 minutes then 400 for 20 minutes with lid off. Cooled 2 hours then cut!
I’m asking for feedback 1. Does this look okay? 2. What makes your sourdough tangy? Is it not tangy because it’s young or did I do something wrong?
