Combine flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.

Mix in the sourdough starter and water until a shaggy dough forms.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 12-18 hours.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C) with a Dutch oven inside.

Flour a clean surface and turn the dough onto it.

Shape the dough into a ball and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Carefully remove the hot Dutch oven from the oven.

Place the dough into the Dutch oven and cover it with the lid.

Bake for 30 minutes with the lid on, then remove the lid and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Remove the bread from the Dutch oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
