Comment préparer Fabulous Crusty Italian Loaf
- In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the olive oil, salt, and 2 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
- Gradually add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic (about 8-10 minutes). If using a stand mixer, knead with a dough hook for 6-8 minutes.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a round or oval loaf.
- Place the loaf in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
