Artisan bread in 5 minutes a day – Master Recipe

Posted by Arin C - Theorian | Posted in Uncategorized | Posted on 29-07-2009

  • 3 cups  lukewarm water
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons granulated yeast
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons kosher or other coarse salt
  • 6 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • Cornmeal for the pizza peel

And then, you know the drill.  Mix with a spoon in a food-safe bucket, let it rise at room temperature for 2 to 5 hours, then into the fridge for two weeks.  Tear off chunks, shape, rest, and bake as needed.  And you all know you can decrease the yeast (http://www.artisanbreadinfive.com/?p=85) and the salt if you like it.
