Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all purpose flour (375 grams)
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (62 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon instant or active dry yeast
- 9 grams 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 1/3 cups water (314 grams)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (15 grams)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, yeast, and salt. Add warm water and vinegar, stirring until all flour is combined. Cover and let rest at room temperature overnight (12 to 18 hours) until bubbly and sticky.
- On a lightly-floured surface, place the dough and gently shape it into a square. Fold each side inward, then flip it over to create tension on the outside. Shape into a boule by gently pulling towards you and rotating as needed.
- Transfer the boule onto a piece of parchment paper and cover with a large inverted bowl for one hour.
- Preheat the Dutch oven at 475°F for 30 minutes (or prep a pizza stone with a cast iron pan below).
- Make shallow slits across the top of the dough using a sharp knife or lame.
- Quickly place the dough on the parchment into the preheated Dutch oven and cover. Bake for 16 minutes (or on pizza stone, pour water into the pan for steam).
- Lower the oven temperature to 400°F. After 16 minutes, remove the Dutch oven and place the bread on the oven rack. Bake for another 25 to 27 minutes until hollow when tapped or internal temp is 205 to 209°F.
- Allow the bread to cool on a rack for at least 45 minutes. Store wrapped in cloth or a bread bag on the counter for up to 2 days or freeze (sliced) for several months.
Notes
For best results, use a kitchen scale for precise measurements.
Allow sufficient time for resting to develop flavor and texture.
Store leftover bread wrapped in a cloth to maintain its crust.
