Tips
- No kneading, no shaping, no skill required.
- Cool completely before serving.
- The dough is high-hydration, which means it uses more water than traditional bread dough. This helps create those airy holes and chewy texture you usually see in artisan breads.
- Instead of kneading, the dough is gently folded a few times to build structure.
