    Good morning Australia. Yesterday’s sourdough turned into a rock on the outside but at least it’s still soft on the inside. Spent half an hour painstakingly sawing off the crust. At least I have a cake for backup breakfast.

      Is the crust too tough to make crumbs from? Makes a nice home made coating for chicken.

          Ah. I bet the bread is still tasty though. Most of my attempts at bread fail because I always seem to get the oven temp/cook time wrong :(

        Normal oven. Mine has a “bread” setting that only uses the lower element and has higher temps. I did moisten the outside before baking it.

          Oh. Don’t mind me I’ve never baked bread before but I’m thinking about it and I’ve seen a lot of recipes that suggest using a Dutch oven. If you’re still on reddit check out r/breadit.
