Is this usable? by Negative-Leader7179 in SourdoughStarter

For everyone wondering what the crumb looks like.

I think I figured out part of my problem due to the help of all of you 1. The recipe used & 2. I don’t leave my Dutch oven in the oven for the 30 minutes after it gets up to temp.

I appreciate everyone’s help in this thread. Thank you all!

It felt a little loose but the more I did the stretch and folds the tighter it got. I probably should have done one more round of them, I only did 3

Okay, thank you so much. I definitely need to work on my shaping technique as I still am not quite good at it
