Can I use a glass casserole dish instead of a Dutch oven for baking sourdough?
Using an oven-safe glass casserole is a smart idea and can definitely mimic a Dutch oven. Just preheat it to 230°C (446°F) to create steam, and don't forget to use parchment or semolina to avoid sticking. You'll still achieve that lovely crispy crust.

The steam essentially prevents the Maillard reaction from happening too quickly on your crust. That’s why steaming during the first stages of the bake is so important. The steam keeps the temperature of your crust close to around 100 °C (212 °F). Achieving steam can be done by using a Dutch oven, an inverted tray and/or a bowl of boiling water. You might also have an oven with a built-in steam functionality. All the methods work, it depends on what you have at hand. My default go-to method is an inverted tray on top of my dough, paired with a bowl full of boiling water towards the bottom of the oven.
