Instructions​

  • Mix Dough: Mix flour, yeast and salt in a large bowl. Add water, then use the handle of a wooden spoon to mix until all the flour is incorporated. Dough will be wet and sloppy – not kneadable, but not runny like cake batter. Adjust with more water or flour if needed for right consistency
  • Rise: Cover with cling wrap or plate, leave on counter for 2 – 3 hours until it doubles in volume, If after 1 hour it doesn’t seem to be rising, move it somewhere warmer .
  • Preheat oven – Put dutch oven in oven with lid on . Preheat to 230°C or 220° fan-forced 30 minutes prior to baking.
  • Shape dough: Sprinkle work surface with 1 tbsp flour, scrape dough out of bowl. Sprinkle top with 1/2 tbsp flour.
  • Using a dough scraper or anything of similar shape (cake server, large knife, spatula), fold the sides inwards (about 6 folds) to roughly form a roundish shape. Don’t be too meticulous here – you’re about to deform it, it’s more about deflating the bubbles in the dough and forming a shape you can move.
  • Transfer to paper: Slide a large piece of parchment/baking paper (not wax paper) next to the dough, then flip the dough upside down onto the paper (ie seam side down, smooth side up). Slide/push it towards the middle, then reshape it into a round(ish) shape. Don't get too hung up about shape. In fact, lopsided = more ridges = more crunchy bits!
  • Dough in pot: Remove piping hot dutch oven from oven. Use paper to place dough into pot, place lid on.
  • Bake 30 minutes covered, then 12 minutes uncovered or until deep golden and crispy.
  • Cool on rack for 10 minutes before slicing

Notes :
1. If you don't have a Dutch oven and heavy based oven pan and lid will work.

Kmart has the perfect dutch oven for $30 worth getting one because I guarantee if you make this once you will make it often.
