Recipe notes

Helpful tips

  • Allow the loaf to cool before slicing so the crumb can finish setting.
  • Keep the pot covered for the first 30 minutes to trap steam.
  • Remove the lid for the final 15 to 20 minutes so the crust can brown.

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Lidded ovenproof pot or Dutch oven
  • Oven

Storage

Store the fully cooled loaf in a bread bag or airtight container at room temperature. Freeze slices for longer storage.
