Easy Artisan Bread
Directions
- 1In a big bowl, combine 3 3/4 cups or 450 grams of bread flour, 1 packet or 2 1/4 teaspoons of instant yeast, and 1 3/4 teaspoons or 10 grams of kosher salt. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
- 2Add 1 1/2 cups or 360 grams of warm water (about 120 degrees) to the bowl while stirring. Continue stirring until well combined.
- 3Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a cozy place for 1.5 to 2 hours, or refrigerate for 8 hours up to 24 hours.
- 4Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.Place the bowl on a trivet in a dark-colored Dutch oven and put in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- 5After 30 minutes, remove the bowl from the dutch oven and gently transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Shape the dough into a round loaf.
- 6Place the shaped dough on a piece of parchment paper, cover it, and let it rest for 10-15 minutes to warm up.
- 7Using a bread lame or a sharp knife, make a 1/4-inch deep slit over the top of the dough to control the baking process.
- 8Carefully place the dough into the preheated Dutch oven. Cover and bake for 30 minutes at 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
- 9Remove the lid and continue baking until golden brown, approximately 13-17 minutes.
- 10Once the bread is cool, remove from the Dutch oven, and slice to enjoy.
