I used 100g starter, 375g water, 11g salt, and 500g flour.
- Mixed dough yesterday around 1 pm
- Rest 1 hr
- 4 rounds of stretch and folds 30 mins apart
- Rest 2 hrs
- Shaping and put in fridge overnight covered in a tea towel
- Baked this morning at 8am, 20 mins @440 in Dutch oven then 20 mins @400 with the lid off
I definitely still have a lot to learn so any tips are appreciated! I think it’s slightly under baked but I was worried about burning it

Congrats!
Woohoo! A little underproofed and underbaked yeah, but it’s a good start. Still pretty delicious, I imagine.
Looks like a good start! You could probably add at least another hour of rest before shaping. The large “tunnels” are a sign of underproofing.
Don’t be worried about burning it – my loaves are sometimes straight black on the very top, but don’t taste burnt at all. At 400 you should have a pretty big window to catch it before it’s actually burnt.
