When you bake sourdough bread, the best temperature to use is between 450°F and 475°F (that's about 232°C to 246°C). Here are some simple steps to follow:
Preheat: First, turn on your oven and let it heat up for at least 30 minutes before you start baking. This step is super important to make a nice crust on your bread.
Baking Method: I like to use a Dutch oven when I bake sourdough. It keeps the steam inside, which helps your bread develop a crust that looks and tastes great while staying chewy on the inside.
Adding Steam: If you don’t have a Dutch oven, no worries! You can still add steam. Just put a pan with water in the oven below the bread while it bakes.
Baking Time: Bake your bread for about 30 to 40 minutes. Keep an eye on it, and look for a golden-brown color—that's what you want!
Soon, your kitchen will be filled with the delicious smell of freshly baked bread!
