All it takes is a little practice and patience. I'm gathering all the steps I've learned that work for me in my part of the world to make a pretty amazing loaf of homemade sourdough bread.

SOURDOUGH BREAD RECIPE
-----------------
100g Whole Wheat Flour
400g Bread Flour
315-325g Water
100g Sourdough Starter (Cultures for Health: https://culturesforhealth.com/products/whole-wheat-sourdough-starter?sca_ref=2616012.VKxYDwUM0C)
10-12g Salt (I used Kosher)
10-15g Extra water (optional)

DIRECTIONS:
1. Prepare the starter by discarding most of it leaving about 25g of starter, and feed it 90g of water and 100g of flour (I used 25g whole wheat and 75g bread flour). Stir it all together until there's no dry bits left. Let it sit on your counter top overnight to ferment and feed again in the morning repeating the same steps. Do this until your starter triples in size.
2. When the starter has tripled in size and before it falls, start the autolyse step: combine whole wheat & bread flour & water. Let it sit for 1 hour.
3. Add the starter and squish together until well combined. Let it sit for 15 minutes to rest.
4. Add the salt and optionally add in a little more water (10-15g) and mix well. Let rest for 30 minutes.
5. Stretch and fold and then let rest 30 minutes more.
6. Stretch and fold again and let rest for 2 hours.
7. Shape your loaf and place it into a banneton or a bowl lined with a floured tea towel. Then cover and put into the fridge for 10-12 hours or overnight.
8. The next morning, pre-heat oven to 500F with your dutch oven inside (no lid).
9. Flip out the sourdough loaf onto parchment paper or this silicone baking mat (https://amzn.to/3NdCyfW) & SCORE the loaf with a sharp knife or a lame (https://amzn.to/3zmP5YE).
10. Place the sourdough into the hot pot and cover with a lid (optional: give it a few spurts of water from a spray bottle or sprinkle in with your hand). Place it back into the oven and lower the temp to 485F. Bake for 18-20 minutes.
11. After time is up, remove the lid and bake for another 25 minutes at 465F.
12. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a nice crust. Slice and enjoy!
