How to Make Artisan Basic French Bread And Variations Overnight
- In a large bowl, combine 3 cups (375g) warm water (105-115°F), 1.5 tsp (7g) active dry yeast, and 1.5 tsp (9g) salt.
- Stir until yeast is dissolved.
- Add 6 cups (750g) all-purpose flour (or a combination of all-purpose and whole wheat flour for added flavor and nutrients).
- Mix until a shaggy dough forms. Do not knead.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise at room temperature for at least 12 hours, or overnight (ideally 12-18 hours).
- Gently turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Shape the dough into a boule (round loaf) or a baguette. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) with a Dutch oven inside for at least 30 minutes.
- Carefully place the shaped dough into the preheated Dutch oven.
- Bake, covered, for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200-210°F (93-99°C).
- Remove from the Dutch oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
