Table bread, the no mashine version


This bread gets very similar to the the table bread that you need to knead for a long time in a machine to get ready. The difference is that this bread does not need any machine at all, instead we use time to get the dough ready.

Table bread

280 gr water, lukewarm
350 gr flour, high protein flour
6 gr yeast
8 gr salt

Method

Dissolve the yeast in the water, add flour and salt and mix with spoon until you have a solid dough. This takes about 30 seconds. Cover the bowl with some lid or plastics. After 45 minutes wet your fingers with water and fold the dough from left to the middle and then from right to the middle, from the top to the middle and from the bottom to the middle. Do this two more times with 45 minutes interval. After 3 hours you take the dough out and gently shape it to a loaf. Let the loaf grow for 1 hour- Preheat the oven to highest temp after 30 minutes and keep a baking tray in the oven to get warm. Gently transfer the loaf to the hot baking tray and spray plenty of water in to the oven. Put the oven temperature to 250 C, and after 10 minutes lower the temp to 200 C. After 20 minutes open the hatch to let steam out, repeat that every 10 minutes until the bread has been about  40 minutes in the oven. Leave the bread a bit longer in the oven if you like a hard crust.
