Let me show you how I make Artisan Bread!
You will be able to make this bread if you follow these simple steps. And that is a promise!
Ingredients
All you will need is Yeast, Sugar, Water, Bread Flour, Salt.
Let us prepare the dough!
To 1 cup of very warm water, add 1 tablespoons of sugar,
and 1 teaspoon of Rapid Rise Yeast
Stir to dissolve the sugar and yeast. Set aside to ferment.
While waiting for the yeast to bloom, measure out 3 1/2 cups bread flour into a large mixing bowl.
Add 1-1/2 teaspoon salt, and stir salt into the flour.
Add the fermented yeast plus 3/4 cup water, and stir well to hydrate all the flour.
Scrape the sides of the bowl to get all the dry flour, continue to mix the dough. The dough will be wet and shaggy.
It should not take much effort or time to mix the dough... just about a minute or a minute and a half. I am not "kneading" the dough, I am simply mixing the dough to ensure that all the flour is hydrated with the liquid ingredients.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or kitchen towel. Leave the bowl with dough to proof in a warm place in your kitchen for 1-1/2 hours to 2-1/2 hours or until the dough doubles its size. I put mine in the oven with the oven light on.
The dough should double in size. This was after 1-1/2 hr and it has doubled in size.
Sprinkle the dough with flour. You can use your hands to do the next step if you prefer. I am using a spatula.
Pull the dough from the sides of the bowl to "degass" the dough. "Fold" the dough over and over and adding flour when needed. The dough will be sticky.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or kitchen towel and let it rest to proof the second time for 30 minutes. In the meantime, preheat the oven.
We are ready to bake!
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F with an empty dutch oven with lid. I am using an enameled 3 quart dutch oven. Take the pot out of the oven after 15 minutes.
Put the dough inside the pot. Be careful if you do, the pot will be very hot!
Generously flour the top of the dough. Using a sharp knife, slit the top of the dough. This is optional. It is just to give it a rustic look. Put the lid back on the pot.
Bake at 450 degrees F for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, lower the oven temperature to 400 degrees and continue baking the bread UNCOVERED for 10 minutes or until the top of the bread has browned.
Ahh... the bread is done!
Take the bread out of the pot to cool.
Cool the bread for 10 minutes before slicing it. This bread was just out of the oven and is super hot. A perfect soft crumb!
Rustic, Artisan Bread.
Yummy, with butter!
If you make this bread, don't forget to tag me!
ENJOY!

Looks yummy.
But, too much work. I think I will just go to the shop and get meself a slice. 😊
It takes just a couple of minutes to prepare, but it does take time to proof!
You do it in between chores!
🥰🌺🤙 !ENGAGE
Thanks for the encouragement. 😊
ENGAGEtokens.Thank you! 🙏
Mmmmm! Bread... 🤤
I used to make bread all the time. I miss it. Mostly the smell while it's cooking... oh, and I liked kneading... and the taste. GIVE ME THE GLUTEN! 🤣

ENGAGEtokens.Looks quite tasty! Warm bread and melted butter.....there is nothing better, that's for sure! Take care sis!
When did we learn to bake bread... wasn't this a skill taught to us by our mothers?
I bake every week, like clockwork.
I appreciate your support, sis @elizabethbit, 🥰🌺🤙 !ENGAGE
I would have to say baking bread was not on my mom's list of things she baked. I taught myself how to back in the early days of my marriage. I love the smell......😁
Wow. Others will just buy bread.
Yes, and I guess everyone else does!
I remember when I was selling the house several years ago... during an open house, I used to bake bread!
🥰🌺🤙 !ENGAGE
Excellent thing to do! When we were building in Ohio, and it was time for the building inspector to come, I would put cinnamon and cloves in a pan on the stove, or bake cookies. We always passed the inspection!😁
ENGAGEtokens.ENGAGEtokens.Looks like the pieces of bread that would be on a king and queens table.
The use of the pot is very interesting.
!WINE
You may bake it in a pan, but it bakes better using a cast iron pan!!!
Thank you so much for the wine!

ENGAGEtokens.I love the rustic bread!! We have a cast-iron pan we use only for the rustic bread! It is one of our favorites and doesn't it smell heavenly on a cool winter day!
It looks delicious and the crusty exterior is my favorite part, especially with some nice homemade honey butter. Oh, yum! I want to thank you so much for posting this, it will certainly wake up a lot of bakers on the platform! I just saw Melinda's remark about cinnamon rolls and now I know what I am having with my coffee tomorrow!
What a great job with the step-by-step!
Sweet @dswigle!!!
Thank you for allowing me to share my passion for baking with you.
Every Sunday, I bake two batches... the first batch for this bread, and a second batch for half of slice bread and half into rolls. So my house is smelling so yummy!
I appreciate you, my sweet friend!
🥰🌺🤙 !ENGAGE
It really is my pleasure, my friend! That is one of the best bread EVER! I could eat it every day! I am so happy to see you make it available for all!
ENGAGEtokens.Thank you for the engage tokens @silversaver888
I made bread yesterday. Half the dough became a loaf of bread and the other half became cinnamon rolls. Your post is really well done!
There are many things I do not know about you, @melinda010100!
I have three passions in life... cooking, travel, and stacking. Lately I decided to blog about cooking.
Thank you for being here, my friend. I wanted to share my passion with you!
🥰🌺🤙 !ENGAGE
ENGAGEtokens.I have always loved to cook... Baking especially. It has become more difficult for me and maybe the day will come when I can afford to make the necessary changes to make my kitchen more handicap accessible.
I wish we were neighbors... I can just bake for you!!!

Wow! Sweet potatoes or squash... I have not tried it squash! 🥰🌺🤙 !ENGAGE
ENGAGEtokens.Looks delicious but seems like it requires quite a bit of work and time to bake.
No it does not. It takes a couple minutes only.
But you need to proof it, just like anything with yeast.
Baking take 40 minutes.
