  • 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and instant yeast.

  3. Stir until a shaggy dough forms, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest for 12-18 hours at room temperature.
  4. After the resting period, preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and place a Dutch oven inside to heat up.
  5. Once the oven is hot, carefully remove the Dutch oven and place the dough inside (you can shape it if desired).
  6. Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes.
  7. Remove the lid and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the bread is golden brown.
  8. Let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

  • For a crustier bread, you can place a pan of water in the oven while baking.
  • Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor.
  • This bread is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.
