01First dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water. Then mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl with a wooden spoon or your hands to mix the salt evenly into the flour. Add yeast water and mix briefly by hand just until no more flour is visible. The dough should be sticky and moist, but not watery. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature or in the fridge for approx. 18 hrs.
02After the dough has rested, generously flour your work surface. Take the dough out of the bowl, fold it once in from each side and sprinkle it with flour. Take a clean kitchen towel, sprinkle it with flour and lay in the dough bottom side down. Now sprinkle with flour again, cover the dough completely and let it sit on the surface for approx. 2 hrs.
03Preheat the oven to 250°C/480°F and heat the pot with a lid on an oven rack. Carefully remove the preheated pot and put the dough into the pan with the seam side down. Score it quickly if desired, then cover and bake the bread for approx. 30 min. Remove the lid and bake for another 15 to 30 min. if you want a darker crust.
