sourdough baguette

After attending a course by king arthur flour bakery school I start baking everyday with my sourdough that I kept feeding daily just to have fun and practice more. So I had a sourdough ready and I was like I will just shape it as baguette. It was so good and yummy lol

at KA really paid off!  Very nice baking indeed.  The crust and scoring are very nice.

I dont know how to explain lol but I will try since it is easy. 

1 pound of sourdough starter

21 oz of all purpose flour

3 oz of wheat flour 

11.5 oz of water ( the original recipe of the king arthur course is 14 oz but it was to wet for me so i setteled with 11.5)

17 gm of salt. 

you mix everything until homogounes except the salt and let it autolasye for 30-40 minute then add the salt in and kneed the dough completely. 

in my case here I store the dough in the fridge and just cut pieces every other day and shape my own baguette or soup bowl and eat it fresh :) I hope that helped and if you have question please feel free to ask

How is the crumb? Did you get a nice open one?  I've been experimenting with a very high hydration baguetted that has nice open crumb but you can't really shape them.
