Crusty Bread

Recipe from Debbie Trojahn

3 C unbleached all purpose flour
1 3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp yeast
1 1/2 C water

In a large bowl whisk together flour, salt and yeast.  Add water and mix.  Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set aside for 12-18 hours.

Heat oven to 450°.  When oven is heated, place a cast iron pot with lid in the oven for 30 minutes to heat up.  Meanwhile, pour dough onto a heavily floured surface and shape into a ball.  Cover with plastic wrap and let set while pot is heating.  Remove pot from oven and drop in dough ball.  Cover and return to oven for 30 minutes.  After 30 minutes, remove the lid and bake an additional 15 min. Remove from over, place on a cooling rack.
