Mix warm water and yeast in a small bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer combine flour and salt. Add the water and yeast mixture to the flour and mix until the dough comes together with a hook attachment or by hand. Cover with a tea towel and let it rise for one hour in a warm place.
After one hour preheat the oven to 500F/260C with the dutch oven, including the lid, in it.

You can place your shaped dough on a piece of parchment paper, then pick it up by the opposite side of the paper and lower it into the Dutch Oven.
Full disclosure: I don’t use parchment paper and my bread never sticks to the Dutch Oven.

Oh boy this bread is amazing! How long and what setting do you use if mixing in a stand mixer? It never stayed in on the hook like I’ve seen other dough do, it just spread right back out in the bowl when I turned the mixer off and after the hour rise and folding it like an envelope it still seemed like throwing goo into a a hot Dutch oven. It still turned out nice but can’t help thinking I did something wrong?
Perfect recipe and bread! Thank you 😊
This is the best bread I have ever made. The taste, texture is perfect. Thank you so much.
Please tell me you or someone has adapted and used this in an instant pot with air fryer (8qt) has multiple functions and I don’t know if with my disability I’ll be able to handle a Dutch oven…. I have to rely mainly on that appliance for most of my food making, and the stove sometimes with pans but it takes a lot out of me. So I want so badly to try this but need to know if someone has or if you have done it with the instant pot/instant pot air fryer?
I made this for the first time today. It is great. Does anyone know if you can use wheat flour?
Hi Chef :Iuse a no handle cast iron pan. no lid cause it won't fit in my bread oven ,,and to create that great crust. water in a spray bottle does the trick , preheat oven with pan slide out pad drop in dough spray sides and oven Witt water close ,and do this quickly, door and watch it rise immediately ,,a tip if you burn yourself ,ever , wet burn area and white sugar pain and burned area gone in 30 seconds , Good Eating ..
Made my first loaf yesterday and it is delicious. My problem is my Dutch oven - the oil scorched and I cannot get it clean. Does the type of oil make a difference? If I use parchment next time do I need to cut it out to the shape of DO? Thanks
