Step 3

Cover with plastic wrap and let rest/rise for at least 6 hrs and up to 12-14 hrs.

Step 4

In the morning, generously grease a loaf pan. Then lightly flour the edges of the bowl and then turn dough onto a floured surface and shape into a loaf shape and add to the loaf pan. Or just "pour" into the pan. Add additional fresh rosemary on top, if desired. Cover with towel and let rise for at least another 2 hrs.If using a Dutch oven, lined Dutch oven with parchment paper and then lightly flour the edges of the bowl and then turn dough onto a floured surface and shape into a boule or ball shape. Cover and let rise for another 2 hrs.

Step 5

Meanwhile, pre-heat oven to 450 degrees.

Step 6

After 2 hours and loaf has risen again, use a super sharp knife or bread lame and score top of bread with three slashes, or however you'd like.

Step 7

Loaf Pan: Bake for 35-40 minutes until edges are browned and bread sounds hallow to a tap to the bottom. Dutch Oven: Bake covered for 40 minutes. Remove lid and then bake another 15 minutes.

Step 8

Let cool for at least 1 hour. Slice and enjoy! If sliced too early, it can cause a gummy center.
