Thanks Barb!
I used a recipe with 1 1/6 starter and 3 1/2 cups flour and 1 cup water plus salt.
You were right on about the fridge because even after 5 hrs in fridge, I just got my basket today, I took dough out and was able to fold over to center until a ball then do the pulling on my surface and turn and pull so it got tight! Back in fridge!
I have cast iron Dutch oven. Love it! I usually heat it first. Tomorrow imy 7 th loaf goes in!
I guess I could take few days to work on starter yet it looks as good as all photos I have seen, flavor in bread is very good and it is thick. I will be more aware of recipes!
I guess time to try the recipe on here, now that I found this great community blog!
Happy baking and thanks again.
