Ingredients:
- 1 cup sourdough starter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter, flour, water, and salt. Mix until well combined and a shaggy dough forms.
- Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for 8-12 hours.
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) and place a Dutch oven or a heavy pot with a lid in the oven to heat up.
- Once the oven is heated, carefully remove the pot from the oven and take off the lid.
- Using floured hands, shape the dough into a round loaf and place it in the pot. Cover the pot with the lid and return it to the oven.
- Bake for 30 minutes with the lid on, then remove the lid and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Carefully remove the bread from the pot and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
