Simple bread with regular yeast Ingredients: 1000g Bread flour 1 tsp instant yeast 20g salt 750g Water (temp 75-80F/24-26C) 1. Mix= Flour+ Yeast => whisk 2. Add Water 700g => mix=> let it rest for 30-40min autolise 3. Add Salt + 50g remaining Water => mix well by squeezing the dough between your fingers. The dough will first break apart &then will re-form. Fold the dough on top of itself. 4. Transfer the dough into a clean container. Rest 30 min 5. Fold: grab the underside of the dough, stretch it up, & fold it back over the rest of the dough. Repeat this action 2-3 times so the dough gets evenly developed. Let it rest for another 30min 6. Repeat the fold. Rest for 30 min 7. Coil fold
#1 Rest for 30 min 8. Coil fold
#2 9. Ferment for about 4-5 h at room temp ⛳️if you don’t want to bake the same day ferment the dough at room temp for 1h then place in the fridge for up 12 h. Next morning take out the dough let it sit at room temp for about 30 min. 10. It’s time to divide the dough. Pull the dough out of the container onto an unfloured surface. Lightly flour the surface of the dough. Cut the dough into 2 equal pieces. Flip each piece so that floured side rests on the work surface. Then fold each piece onto itself so that the flour on the surface of the dough is sealed on the outside of the loaf. (Use flour on your hands to avoid sticking). Work each piece of the dough into a round shape by using a bench knife. 11. Rest for 20-30 min. Cover with a kitchen towel. 12. Slightly flour the top surface of the dough Flip the round, what was the underside is now facing up. maintain the round shape. 13. Form/shape. The final folding builds tension inside each loaf so that it holds its form & rise substantially when baked. 14. Transfer it to a basket so the smooth side is down & the seam is centered & facing up. Let the dough rise at 78-80F/25-27C for about 2-3h before baking. ⛳️If you don’t want to bake right away, you can retard the process by placing the dough in the fridge for up to 12 h. 15. About 20 min before you’re ready to bake, place a Dutch oven (with a ead) in the oven and preheat the oven to 500F/260C 16. As soon as the Dutch oven is back in the oven immediately reduce the oven temp to 450F. Bake the loaf for 20 min 17. After 20 min carefully remove the lead. Continue to bake for another 20-25 min, until the crust is the color of deeply caramelized.
