Tips for Success
Use high-quality artisan bread flour for the best texture.
If using active dry yeast, dissolve it in warm water before mixing with flour.
Let the dough rise in a warm spot (around 70-75°F) for optimal fermentation.
Ensure the Dutch oven is fully preheated for the best crust formation.
Store bread in a paper bag or bread box to maintain its crisp crust.
