Sourdough Scoring Tips:

Scoring your sourdough loaf is an important step that helps control the direction of the oven rise. Proper scoring allows the dough to expand and creates a signature ear on your loaf.

Here are some tips for scoring sourdough:

• Score the dough just before it goes into the oven.
• Use a light, confident motion to make your cuts.
• Different scores create different oven spring patterns. Experiment with curves, straight lines, or even designs to personalize your loaves.
