Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk flour, salt, and yeast. Pour in warm water and add rosemary and garlic. Use a wooden spoon to stir just until a shaggy dough forms – do be sure to mix until the garlic and rosemary are distributed throughout. The mixture will be wet and very sticky to the touch.
  • Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place 8 to 18 hours until dough rises, bubbles and flattens on top.
  • Heat oven to 450°F. Once oven is preheated, place a 6 quart Dutch oven (with cover) in oven 30 minutes before baking.
  • Dust the top with more flour and working quickly, with floured hands, fold two sides in towards the center then flip over. Re-flour hands and gently shape the dough into a ball by rotating it with both of your hands and pulling it under itself.
  • Re-flour your hands and scoop up the dough and place it on a piece of parchment paper and sprinkle top lightly with flour. Top with a sheet of plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes. Cut the parchment to be just a little larger than the bottom of your Dutch oven, as needed.
  • Remove Dutch oven from oven. Uncover dough and carefully transfer to Dutch oven, with parchment paper beneath. Cover Dutch oven and return to oven.
  • Bake bread 45 minutes covered, then another 10 to 15 minutes uncovered, until dough is baked through and golden brown on top. Cool before slicing.

Notes

Yield – 1 Loaf
Flavor Tips – I do not recommend using dried rosemary or garlic in this recipe. The flavor does not come through.
Variations – Add parmesan cheese or a mix of fresh herbs like oregano, sage and thyme.
Storage – You can store this bread uncovered up to 24 hours, or in a bread box up to 2 days. Once sliced, store the bread sliced-side down on a cutting board at room temperature up to 24 hours (or in a paper bag).
