I think I'll do the no preheat bake again. easier, and didn't see any negative impact.
this sourdough has gone through some long fridge spells. keeps on ticking.
needs a name, i guess?

a little dark on the bottom. i had plans at the end of the bake, and had to leave a wee bit early.
i decided to turn off the oven, put the lid back on the dutch oven, and let the loaf cool with the oven.
super tasty, even though a little dense.

which is the autolyse step? i always use a stand mixer.
my recipe has 60% of flour and wet ingredients, then rest overnight in fridge.
then add remaining flour, AND SALT, before more mixing and kneading.
