For an enhanced crust, consider placing a tray of ice cubes in the bottom of the oven during the first 10 minutes of baking to create steam. The quality of your sourdough starter greatly impacts the final flavor. Use a well-fed, active starter for the best results. If you don't have a cloche, a Dutch oven is an excellent substitute for creating a similar baking environment. Adjust the amount of flour slightly depending on the humidity in your kitchen to achieve the desired dough consistency.
