Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 3 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1.5 tsp sugar
- 2 tsps salt
- 2.5 tsps quick yeast (about 1 package)
- 1.33 cups warm water
- 2 large sprigs rosemary, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, diced
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients: flour, sugar, salt, quick yeast, warm water, diced rosemary, and diced garlic. Stir until the mixture is sticky and shaggy.
- Cover the bowl with a towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes.
- Once risen, lay out a sheet of parchment paper and dust it lightly with flour. Transfer the sticky dough onto the parchment.
- Shape the dough into a ball by folding the edges toward the center.
- Flip the dough smooth side up, cover it again with the towel, and let it rise for another 20 minutes while you preheat your Dutch oven.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (about 232°C) with the Dutch oven (without the lid) inside.
- Carefully remove the hot Dutch oven, and transfer your dough, still on the parchment paper, into it. Score the top of the dough with a knife to allow steam to escape.
- Cover the Dutch oven and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the bread is golden brown.
- Once done, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
