Easy white loaf recipe

Ingredients

500 grams strong white flour

10 grams fine sea salt

3 grams instant dried yeast

330 ml lukewarm water

Method

SIft the flour into a large bowl and add the salt and the yeast. Mix well together with hands or a large spoon.

Slowly add the water until you have a shaggy dough.

Leave the dough in the bowl and cover with a damp tea towel. Leave to prove in a warm place for 12-16 hours.

Tip dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape into a ball.

Placed the shaped dough onto a sheet of baking parchment and cover with a damp tea towel. Leave in a warm place for one hour.

Halfway through this resting time, turn your oven on to 230 C/210 fan/gas 9. Place a large cast-iron casserole dish with its lid on into the oven to heat.

When this second half hour is up, remove the casserole from the oven - it will be very hot at this point. Remove the tea towel from the dough and lower it, still on the baking parchment, into the hot casserole. Using a sharp knife, make a slash across the top. Pour a couple of tablespoons of water around the dough.

Replace the casserole lid and return it to the oven for 30 minutes. Now remove the lid and continue baking for 10 - 15 minutes until it is golden brown.

Remove and place the bread on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes, during which time it will continue to cook.
