FOOLPROOF BREAD RECIPE
This recipe requires some commitment time wise, but if you remember that whilst it's in the fridge or whilst it's proofing you can go about your business as usual, then the actual time spent on the bread is minimal. This recipe is also scalable - should you want to scale up or scale down the amount of dough here are the percentages: Changeable amount - Flour, Yeast =2% total weight of flour, Salt = 2% total weight of flour, Water = 60% - 65% total weight of flour (1g = 1ml). Whilst some people may want to reduce the salt because of health reasons, the salt acts an as inhibitor and stabiliser of the yeast during the proofing period, and is actually an essential ingredient in the bread. Try eating the bread with other foodstuffs that have are low in salt instead of altering the bread recipe. Once you feel you've mastered this recipe you can try it with a 50% whole wheat 50% white flour mix (though you may need to add more water as whole wheat is more absorbent). I would also encourage you to experiment with water percentages. 60% hydration would be a normal/dry loaf with quite a tight crumb, whereas 80% hydration (not recommended for hand mixing) would be like a Ciabatta.

Steps:
- Measure the water and weigh out the flour, salt and yeast, taking care not to allow the yeast and salt to touch, as this will kill the yeast. I use Instant yeast, but if you use active yeast make sure to premix it with lukewarm water to activate it.
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl until a dough has formed, then knead for 5-10 minutes. By the end time the dough should be soft and slightly sticky. Take note: If you can't stand the sticky dough on your hands DO NOT add extra flour, as you will end up with a dry, dense bread - wetting your hands will help.
- Put the bowl of dough in the fridge for at least 8 hours (preferably overnight). This step is called retardation, since the cooler temperature slows down the yeast reaction but allows the flavour to continue developing.
- Take the dough out of the fridge and let it rise for around 3 hours (2 1/2 if it's a very warm day). If you're like me it can be tempting to shorten the proofing time, but underproofing will result in an ugly loaf that tears along the sides when you put it in the oven.
- As the 3 hours are coming to a close, thoroughly clean a section of work surface, and use a silicon brush to lightly oil it with any flavourless oil (I use sunflower oil). In addition prepare a baking sheet by covering it with baking parchment and sieving a liberal amount of flour (semolina flour if you have it) onto the parchment. Don't put the flour away, you'll need it in a second.
- Deflate the dough on the section of oiled work surface and shape it until it is roughly the shape you want. Once you have achieved the shape you would like sprinkle a handful of flour onto the work surface and roll the dough in it until it is covered.
- Place the dough seam side down onto the baking tray and cover with a clean, linen tea towel to rise for a further 1hr 30 (1 hr if it's a very warm day). 20 minutes before the time is up preheat the oven to 230 degrees Celsius.
- Once the second proofing time is up, remove the tea towel and use a sharp knife (or serrated, if you prefer) to score three diagonal lines about 1/4 inch deep widthways across the bread, wetting the knife between each score. Try to be gentle with the dough so you don't deflate it.
- Do your final shaping of the dough, (gently use the palm of your hands to shape the sides of the dough) then place the bread into the middle shelf of the oven, immediately turning the heat down to 200 degrees Celsius. Set the timer for 40 minutes.
- Once the bread is done, take it off the baking parchment and put it onto a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes, making sure not to burn yourself.
- Enjoy!

- Activate the active dry yeast by mixing in warm water (100-110 0F) with 1 tsp of sugar. Set aside. It should become foamy and frothy in 5-10 minutes.
- Combine all the wet and dry ingredients in a big bowl. Using the back of a wooden spatula, combine them until the dough comes together. Use hands towards the end if needed. Make sure that there are no patches of dry flour in the dough. Cover with cling wrap or a kitchen towel and let the dough rest for 20 minutes.
- Now, wet a hand to stretch the dough. Take your hand under the dough and stretch it upwards, now tuck it under the dough on the opposite side. Repeat 4-5 times. Then, cover and let the dough rest for 15 minutes. Come back after 15 minutes and repeat the same process. You should do it 4 times at the interval of 15 minutes, to get smooth dough.
- Grease the instant pot interior, place the dough inside and close the lid. Proof till the dough doubles in size.

- Activate the yeast: Pour warm water into a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast on top. Add sugar and give the mixture a small stir. Place the bowl in a warm place for about 10-15 minutes. Be patient! If yeast is activated, you will see foam on top of the mixture, and even a few small bubbles. Also, if you take sniff, it will smell very much like yeast.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, and salt. Add water and yeast mixture and mix until just combined into a sticky, shaggy dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let sit for 12-18 hours. After the dough has risen for at least 12 but preferably 18 hours, it should look loose and very moist with plenty of bubbles on the surface.
- When the dough is ready, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Place a 6 to 8qt dutch oven or cast iron pot in the oven to heat up for 30 minutes before baking.
- Place dough on a well floured surface and, using plenty of flour on your hands, gently pat it into a ball shape. Score the top of the dough as desired.
