It is necessary to place the dough on a surface that has been gently sprinkled with flour in order to form it. After shaping the dough into a ball, place it in a bowl or bread basket to allow it to rise over time. (Here’s a hint: while my Dutch oven or oven is heating up, I let it an hour to rise.)
Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees.
As soon as the oven is ready, you should begin heating your Dutch oven for a half an hour. Only five minutes before you want to start heating up your Dutch oven, you should do so. Place your bread in a single layer on a piece of parchment paper, and then score it around the perimeter.
After the Dutch oven has reached the desired temperature, place the bread inside. (A hint: place an ice cube on top of the crust to produce steam, which will add extra crunch to the crust.) Cook for a total of thirty minutes with the lid on and fifteen minutes apart.
After you have allowed it to cool, enjoy it!
