I started baking bread about a year or so ago although I have been baking other goodies for a number of years now. I tried this sourdough recipe today and was lucky enough to hit it fairly well on my first try (not always the case with attempts at other endeavors) so am happy and pleased. Between my wife and myself, this loaf doesn't appear to be long for this world. Even with a fairly young starter, the taste came out really well, got good oven rise, good structure overall. As mentioned, your environment will dictate timing and proportions, but over all follow the recipe and you should come out with a outstanding loaf of sourdough bread.
