Directions
- Dissolve the yeast and salt in the water.
- On a large wood board make a well in the flour and pour the water with the yeast already dissolved.
- Add the oil to the water and mix the flour. Work it well until all the water has been absorbed by the flour.
- Continue to work the dough until it is fully firm. You may need to add a just a bit more water or flour depending on factors such as flour, humidity, etc.
- Cut a piece of dough and shape it into the form that you desire.
- Alternatively you can shape it into a traditional loaf design.
- Put some flour on a baking sheet and position your bread creations on it.
- Cover the bread with a white cloth and place it in a warm area to raise (about 90F for 1 hour)
- Pre-heat the oven at 400F and put a small container filled with water in the oven.
- Bake bread for 45 minutes. Less time if you shape the bread into small forms. Occasionally check on the color to see when it is golden and done.
