Feed your sourdough starter 4-6 hours before you plan to bake.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, water, and sourdough starter. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.

Let the dough rest for 30 minutes.

Sprinkle the salt over the dough and mix until fully incorporated.

Cover the bowl with a towel and let it rise for 4-6 hours at room temperature, performing stretch and folds every 30 minutes.

Once the dough has doubled in size, transfer it to a floured surface and shape it into a loaf.

Place the shaped dough into a floured proofing basket or bowl. Cover and let it rise for 1-2 hours.

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) with a Dutch oven inside.

Carefully place the dough inside the hot Dutch oven, cover it, and bake for 30 minutes.

Remove the lid and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
