FRIJE

Instructions

• 1.   Put all the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer and knead for 5 minutes on low speed, then for 8 minutes on medium speed.
• 2.   Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
• 3.   Then, fold the dough over itself from one side to the other. Let it rest for another hour.
• 4.   When the dough has risen well, place it on a floured work surface and shape it into a ball. Place it in a floured round or elongated proofing basket. Cover and let it rest for 1 hour at room temperature.
• 5.   Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 260°C (500°F) with a baking sheet and a drip pan inside.
• 6.   Turn the proofing basket onto a bread peel to transfer it to the oven, or directly onto the baking sheet. Score the bread, then pour a bowl of hot water into the drip pan.
• 7.   Bake for 40 minutes, lowering the oven temperature to 230°C (450°F) halfway through cooking.
