World's Best Bread (tm)

Also known as "slow rise bread" or "no-knead bread", this is not my original recipe but one that's getting popular around the world for its simplicity and great taste. All it requires is flour, water, salt, and a tiny bit of yeast. I'm so addicted to this way of making bread that it's all I make these days!

Ingredient

Food ration :

1 loaf

Cooking time :

15 hours

625 g

wheat flour

500 ml

water

3 tsp

salt

1/4 tsp

dry yeast

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Mix yeast and salt into 5dl of warm water. This is really how little yeast you need!

* Step 2

Mix the flour into the water.

* Step 3

Keep mixing until there are no dry flour bits left (add more water if necessary).

* Step 4

Cover and let it rise in a warm place for 12 hours. Yes, 12 hours!

* Step 5

Pour out the dough and gently fold it onto itself in thirds 3-4 times.

* Step 6

Prepare a bowl with some olive oil and flour to prevent the dough from sticking.

* Step 7

Put the dough in the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise for another 2 hours.

* Step 8

Put an oven-resistant pot with its lid on into your oven and preheat it to 250C. You want to make sure the pot is VERY HOT or the bread will stick when you bake it.

* Step 9

Once the oven is ready, take out the pot, pour the dough in (you should hear a sizzling sound if it's hot enough), put the lid back on and bake for 30 mins at 250C
