Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Mixing the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Adding Water

    Gradually add the water to the flour mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.

  3. 3

    Kneading the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    First Rise

    Place the kneaded dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Shaping and Baking

  1. 5

    Prepping the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 6

    Shaping the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, gently deflate it and transfer it to a floured surface. Shape it into a round loaf.

  3. 7

    Second Rise

    Place the shaped dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Cover it with a cloth and let it rise for another 30 minutes.

  4. 8

    Adding Toppings

    Brush the top of the dough with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt, and scatter fresh rosemary on top.

  5. 9

    Baking

    Bake the bread in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

  6. 10

    Cooling

    Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
