I let the dough rise in a floured towel and then place the dough to the hot pot for baking.

I must say. I made this bread twice this weekend. The reason is, the first loaf I made didn’t rise for some reason. I believe the water I used was too hot. Anyway the second loaf turned out well.

aprillazydaisy also recently posted the same recipe which originally came from Jim Lahey’s Sullivan Street Bakery in Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen.

Do you let it rise in the pot and then bake it in the same pot without heating it?

I think the skillet is really the way to go for the crusty chewy type of bread.

I have the same recipe, minus the sugar. I just mix it with a wooden spoon and don’t bother with the electric mixer. If you have an electric oven, like I do, just place the bread in your cast iron pot with the lid on and leave the oven light on. It creates just the right amount of heat. I usually start this about 8 p.m. and then it’s all ready for supper the next night. Also, one of the cups of bread flour can be substituted for 1 cup of wheat flour. Great recipe.

I bake this all time and the family loves it. I’m lazy so I skip the second rising and also skip the messy towel thing. After mixing the dough I spray Pam a clean bowl, place the dough in and let rise there, then after 12 to 18 hours, heat any pot with a lid and spray Pam that before gently dumping and using a spatula loosen the dough into the hot pot. Yummy!

Thanks for giving us this recipe.
