Just realized my grandma's trick of putting a pan of water in the oven for bread actually works for my sourdough.

Huh, is it really that big of a deal? It just adds some steam to the oven, which lots of bakers do. Seems like a pretty basic trick to me.

Basic trick"? Charles_mitchell, that steam is the whole game.

It's the difference between okay bread and great bread.

Tried it once and the crust was SO much better, like night and day.
