Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Dissolve the yeast in one cup of lukewarm water in a large bowl.
  2. After a minute or two, add one cup of flour and mix.
  3. Then add a second cup and knead by hand until smooth; the dough should be dry and not stick to your hands.
  4. Cover the bowl with a towel and let the dough rise overnite at room temperature.
  5. The next day, punch the dough down and add 3/4 of a cup of lukewarm water, the salt and the remaining flour, one cup at a time, mixing all the while.
  6. If you are using a stand mixer, use your dough hook; otherwise knead by hand, working the dough until dry.
  7. Now, either knead for several more minutes in your stand mixer or place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead for a good five minutes.
  8. Now, take the dough on your board and pound it heavily with a rolling to flatten it.
  9. Fold the dough and pound it again until flat.
  10. Repeat this process 7 or 8 more times.
  11. Now let the dough (and the cook) rest for ten minutes.
  12. Form the dough into a ball, place on a board or counter and cover with plastic wrap.
  13. Let the dough rise for two and a half hours at room temperature.
  14. Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees.
  15. With a small, sharp knife, make five parallel cuts, approximately 1/4 deep, along the top of the loaf.
  16. Place the loaf on a lightly buttered cookie sheet and bake for 40 minutes or until browned and hollow sounding when knock on the bottom.
  17. Note: If you are planning to make this bread again in a few days, reserve a cup of dough for a starter and save it in the fridge-but don't keep it past a third day; when you are ready to make the second batch, bring the starter to room temperature, and proceed, skipping the overnight proofing.
