Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 ½ cups water (room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and instant yeast. Mix them together until they’re well blended.
- Add in the chopped rosemary and minced garlic, mixing until everything is evenly distributed.
- Slowly pour in the water, and stir using a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms. Don’t worry about the consistency—it’s supposed to be a little messy!
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for about 12 to 18 hours. This is when the magic happens. Patience is key!
- After the dough has risen and bubbles have formed on the surface, prepare a well-floured surface. Turn the dough out onto the floured area and sprinkle a little extra flour on top to make it easier to handle.
- Using your hands, stretch and fold the dough a few times to shape it into a ball. Don’t overdo it, just enough to bring it together.
- Place the dough seam-side down on a floured piece of parchment paper. Cover it with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise for another hour.
- About 30 minutes before your dough is ready, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a large Dutch oven (or any heavy pot with a lid) inside to heat up.
- When the oven is hot, carefully lift the parchment paper with the dough and place it into the hot pot. Drizzle a little olive oil on top for that extra flavor.
- Cover the pot with the lid and bake for 30 minutes. After that, remove the lid and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until it’s golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Once done, carefully remove the bread from the pot and let it cool on a wire rack for a bit before slicing in. Then, it’s time to dig in!
Enjoy this incredible bread with your favorite dishes, or just by itself. It’s guaranteed to bring warmth and joy to your table. Happy baking!
