Master Recipe for White-Flour dough quick reference.
- 3 cups (24 oz) lukewarm water
- 1 1/2 tablespoons granulated yeast (can decrease to 1 tablespoon if you prefer the flavor of slower-risen doughs)
- 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons kosher or other coarse salt (adjust to your taste)
- 6 1/2 cups (32.5 oz) unbleached all-purpose flour
Mix, let rise and collapse. Refrigerate. Pull out one pound of dough and shape. Let stand for 40 minutes. Slash top. Bake at 450 degrees for approximately 30 minutes.
Notes:
Short form instructions adapted from Mother Earth News Five Minutes a Day for Fresh-Baked Bread - Print version
Use about half as much table salt as kosher salt.
I find this basic version fairly bland. There are variations in the Mother Earth News article.
