This is a simple recipe--only 5 ingredients--but it is a bit more time consuming that some. The resulting air-filled crumb is worth the extra effort. Here's the recipe:
500 g bread flour (3-1/2 cups)
475 g water (just over 2 cups)
1 tsp instant yeast
1 tsp sea salt
1Tbsp olive oil
The key to a successful loaf is handling the dough as gently and as little as possible. No kneading, no shaping, no scoring. It is delicious.
