Step-by-Step Instructions for Garlic Herb Dutch Oven Bread
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and instant yeast. Pour in the warm water, then add the minced garlic and your choice of fresh herbs. Mix until fully combined to form a shaggy dough.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let the dough rest at room temperature for 12 to 18 hours.
- Preheat your oven to 230°C (450°F) about 30 minutes before the dough is ready, placing your empty Dutch oven inside.
- Transfer the rested dough onto a floured surface and shape into a round loaf. Dust the top with flour.
- Once the Dutch oven is preheated, remove it carefully, coat with olive oil, and place the shaped dough inside. Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and continue baking for 15 to 20 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
- Transfer the baked bread to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.
