Why not try to make this very delicious Sourdough Loaf recipe. It makes a nice sized loaf and tastes great. Just follow the instuction below to get started on this sourdough bread recipe.
Ingredients: 1/4CUP, active sour dough starter 1 1/2CUPS plus 1 tbsp warm water 4 cups plus 2TBSP all purpose flour 1 1/2TSP fine sea salt/salt The night before, whisk the starter and water together in a bowl.

Cover, let rise over night. Should be over doubled in size. Use well floured hands, to remove dough from bowl. Form your dough to shape you want. Cut slits in it, cover and let rise (another 45minutes to 1 hour) while oven is preheating. Preheat oven to 500F and put your Dutch oven with lid in to warm up.
I don’t spray my dutch oven nor put parchment but some do. My breads never stick for me. Bake 30minutes covered. Then turn down heat to 450F bake uncovered for another 15-20 minutes.

Excellent loaf! Sourdough is a pretty dense bread so we like to cut thinner slices.
