Preparation

• The night before, combine all ingredients together. First mix the dry ingredients together and then add water. Mix the ingredients until the dough comes together. Cover it with plastic wrap and let it sit for 12-20 hours on the countertop.
• The following day, the dough should be wet, sticky and bubbly. Generously flour your hands and the baking sheet.
• Take the dough (if it sticks, apply more flour to your hands) and form a baguette shape. You will easily get at least 2-3 baguettes. Place it on a baking sheet and sprinkle a generous amount of flour on it. Score the top with a sharp knife and cover it with a towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 450 °F. Place a deep baking pan filled with 2 cups of hot boiled water on the lower rack of your oven. Place the bread on the middle rack. Remove the water from the oven after 10 minutes. Keep on baking the bread for another 30 minutes or until golden crispy brown.
