Mix with spoon. Keep spoons in cup of water. 
Mix with hands. keep  Wetting hands as dough is sticky 

Cover the bowl to protect from draft. 





Proofing- 30 minutes- Dough is doubled. Stretch and fold. Keep wetting hands so dough won’t stick. See video. 




Repeat stretch and fold after 45 minutes. More number of proofings you do more gluten will develop and tastier the bread will be. 

I do two proofings. 

Line bread tin with oil generously. Transfer the dough. Stretch and fold. 



Cover with another tin (see pic)




Let dough rise to top. 

Over 230 degrees Centigrade
