Tips for bread baking and cooling

To bake bread, it is more than advisable that there is steam in the oven. For that, when we preheat the oven, we put a clay pot with water, so that when we go to put the bread in, the water is already boiling and creating steam. But the bread only requires steam for the first few minutes, so after five or ten minutes, we remove the pan.
If you have a stone for baking bread or pizza, use it! It must be very hot when we put the bread in, with the help of a shovel. That will also make it much crunchier. If you don’t have one, you can use an upside-down baking tray as a stone and another as a shovel to easily transfer the bread to the hot tray inside the oven.
For the bread to be crispy, it is necessary to first bake it for five or ten minutes at a very high temperature (200-220º) and then lower the temperature (170-180º) for the rest of the time until the bread is well browned.
It is very important to let the bread cool on a rack, so that the moisture in the bread as it cools can escape. If not, the crunchy will gradually go away.

To improve the flavor of the next batch of bread dough

Always save a little sourdough from the previous batch to add it to the new batch of dough that you make. That will improve its flavor.
