1. Put a large bowl on a digital scale and add the sourdough starter and the water, taring the scale in between each addition. Whisk or mix them together really well until the lumps of starter are broken up and the water looks milky and frothy.
2. Add the flour and the salt. Mix it all together really well with a spatula, a wooden spoon or clean hands until you can no longer see any dry flour. Make sure you scrape right down into the bottom of the bowl and along the sides so every little bit is incorporated. Then cover the bowl with a lid or a damp clean dish towel (run it under the tap and wring it out) and leave on the counter for about 1 hour.

Then turn the bowl a quarter of a turn, grab the dough on the side farthest from you, stretch it out gently and fold it over on itself. Work your way all around the dough until you have done this 10 times. You will notice that it gets a little tighter and more ball like as you go. Turn the ball of dough upside down so it's smooth side up, spritz lightly with water (or rub with a we
