Instructions

Mix Ingredients: Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl.
Fold and Rest: Alternate between letting the dough rest for 10 minutes and folding it 10 times (always folding from the bottom up). Repeat this four times: 10 minutes rest, 10 folds; 10 minutes rest, 10 folds; 10 minutes rest, 10 folds; 10 minutes rest, 10 folds.
First Rise: Let the dough rest for one hour or until it doubles in size.
Prepare the Pot: Line your cast iron pot with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Shape the Dough: Shape the dough like a ball
Second Rise: Place the shaped dough in a cast iron pot and let it rest for 40 minutes.
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Score the Dough: Just before baking, use a sharp knife or a bread lame to score the dough. This means making a few shallow cuts on the surface, which helps control the expansion and gives the bread an attractive finish.
Bake with Lid: Bake the bread in a covered cast iron pot for 25 minutes.
Bake without Lid: After 25 minutes, remove the lid and bake for an additional 20 minutes.
Check for Doneness: The bread is ready when the outside is crispy and golden brown, and when you turn it over and tap the bottom, you hear a hollow sound.
Cool Before Slicing: Wait until your bread cools down before cutting a slice. The bread will continue to bake even as it cools down, which helps prevent a gummy crumb.
