Decided recently that I'm going to bake my own bread instead of buying expensive loaves at the store. First loaf turned out pretty good.

Have since got a starter going and am excited for fresh sourdough.

I bake my own bread on camping trips, it's rewarding and very tasty.
Here we call it rustic bread, or Italian bread.

Rustic bread looks amazing and goes well with your rustic coffee cup!

Outstanding! Any chance you can share a recipe?

Lol. It's ugly but I'll try. I kinda combined the recipe on the sourdough starter packet (wanted a test run at a loaf to get my feet wet before and also my starter wasn't ready) and a friend's advice. Also, didn't have enough bread flour so used AP for the remainder.

The recipe only called for one session of folding whereas my buddy and other online things suggested 3-4 while waiting half an hour between each session and stopping when it seemed to have a nice, reasonably smooth and even texture. I began late in the day so by the time folding was done it was 9:00 and decided to let it rest covered in the fridge overnight. Took it out about 16 hours later for the final rise (1 hour). Here's the rest of it... this I followed.

• When dough has 30 minutes left to rise, place a 5- to 7-quart oval enamel-coated Dutch oven and lid in cold oven. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
• Using a lame or razor blade, score top of loaf. Carefully remove hot Dutch oven from oven; remove lid, and place dough, still on parchment, in Dutch oven. Cover with lid, and place back in oven.
• Immediately reduce oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Bake for 30 minutes. Remove lid, and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted in center registers 205°F (96°C), 10 to 15 minutes more. Immediately remove loaf from Dutch oven, and let cool completely on a wire rack.

Probably not the most helpful, I'll try again either this weekend or next with my starter and have my ducks in a row and report back.

Ah, that will teach me to make assumptions. Way above my helmet.

I gave enough information for your response to have been correct.

The stars aligned today and I found myself with a grill, hardwood, fixings, and spare time for an asado.

Rare view from the business end of the coals. Volume on for some sizzle.

It turned out just south of perfect as the marinade was a disappointment (orange juice, lime juice, garlic, salt & pepper). I think I'll stick with my usual soy sauce and lemon pepper next time. No complaints, though, as s good helping of chimichuri fixed everything.

The FK3 was a superb asado knife.
