Hi Anne,

Hmmmm…you had a lid on when you put it in the oven? If so, and it was still hard, either spray or brush some water on the top of the dough right before you put it in the oven.

It’s definitely a crusty loaf. I did buy a great and inexpensive bread knife that makes the job much easier. https://amzn.to/3Gq3DxF

I enjoy all your posts. I tried your sourdough this winter a couple of times. When it came out of the oven it looked lovely and very professional. And it was delicious. But there was one big problem. It was nearly IMPOSSIBLE to slice! I’m talking…I was thinking of getting the chainsaw out after even my electric knife struggled to cut into the crust. What went wrong? I would like to try again. Thank you!
