How can I get my sourdough to rise up instead of out?
I have tried working on my shaping which has helped, I've even tried to lower hydration and that didn't seem to do much. I cant figure it out. Here's a picture of my most recent crumb [1]. By all means, it seems alright. But I see people posting crumbs that almost have no slope, the appear to be almost perfectly round and only rise upward. What am I doing wrong? I cook in a dutch oven. I use okay flour, not great. Its high gluten, 14.2%. I mostly do the king arthur no knead recipe with 3-4 stretch and folds. It's a pretty standard recipe. Thank you!
