Susan, the easiest way for you to learn to make good sourdough is by

watching someone else do it. Here's the link to Breadtopia and Eric's

wonderful videos. I make a version of his whole grain sourdough.

I got La Cloche baking bell from the website and it is the answer to

a baker's prayer, if what you're after is a delicious chewy crust.

 

Hope that helps,
