What is your favorite beginner sourdough recipe? How would I modify it for altitude (5,300 ft)? (lemmy.world)

I am a total bread baking noob but I love to eat it. Sourdough is my absolute favorite, so I need to give this a try.

I know I will need starter (I was planning on buying some online as I don't know anyone irl), and I have a Dutch oven. Yes, there are tons of recipes online, but I want your tried-and-true ones, especially if they are suited for altitude.

Or maybe I need to read a book? If so, which one?

Basically, how do I stuff my face with homemade sourdough in the easiest way possible?

Thank you all!

That's nonsense. Chlorinated water is harmless for any human but will make short work of your starter.

There’s chlorine in drinking water. There’s also chlorine in swimming pools. Go drink a bunch of pool water and see how you feel. Then bake with some drinking water. Then bake bread with pool water, and then try some bleach and see how it goes.
