Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup sourdough starter (65 grams)
  • 1 2/3 cups filtered water (350 grams)
  • 4 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (500 grams)
  • 2 teaspoons fine salt (9 grams)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sourdough starter and warm water; stir until dissolved.
  2. Gradually mix in the flour and salt until a shaggy dough forms; let rest covered for 30-45 minutes.
  3. Stretch and fold the dough on a floured surface for about 15 seconds; return to the bowl and let rise for 4-12 hours until doubled.
  4. Shape the dough gently and let it rise again for 45-60 minutes in a lined bowl or banneton.
  5. Preheat your oven to 450ºF, transfer the dough into a parchment-lined Dutch oven, and bake covered for 30 minutes, then uncovered for an additional 20 minutes.
  6. Cool on a wire rack for at least one hour before slicing.
