Ingredients
  

  • 3.5 Grams Dry Active Yeast (1 Teaspoon)
  • 12 Grams Salt (2 Teaspoons)
  • 360 Grams All-Purpose Flour (3 Cups)
  • 360 Grams Warm Water (1 1/2 Cups)

Instructions
 

  • Stir yeast, salt, and flour together in a large bowl.
  • Add water and stir until a thick, shaggy dough forms. 
  • Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise over night, about 8 to 18 hours.
  • Turn your dough out onto a floured surface. Flour your hands and gently shape the dough into a ball.  Let it rest for 1 hour.
  • After about 30 minutes of resting, preheat your oven to 450 ° Fahrenheit (232 ° Celsius). 
  • Carefully place the dough in the Dutch oven. If you wish, slash the top of the dough with a bread lame or sharp knife. 
  • Place the lid on the Dutch oven, and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the lid of the Dutch oven and bake for another 15 minutes.
  • Place the bread on a cooling rack and allow to cool before serving.

Notes

The longer you let the dough rise, the stronger the flavor. You can let your dough rise overnight for up to 18 hours rather than just 8.
