• 1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
• 1 to 2 teaspoons
• [amazon_textlink asin=’B003Z7VYXW’ text=’instant yeast*’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’1447-5689-3485′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’3adf09a6-06b6-11e8-8028-dd1d012108ea’]
• 2 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 5 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour

1. Combine all of the ingredients, kneading to form a smooth dough.
2. Allow the dough to rise, in a lightly greased, covered bowl, until it’s doubled in size, about 90 minutes.
3. Gently divide the dough in half; it’ll deflate somewhat.
4. Gently shape the dough into two oval loaves; or, for longer loaves, two 10″ to 11″ logs. Place the loaves on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise until very puffy, about 1 hour. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 425°F.
5. Spray the loaves with lukewarm water.
6. Make two fairly deep diagonal slashes in each; a serrated bread knife, wielded firmly, works well here.
7. Bake the bread for 25 to 30 minutes, until it’s a very deep golden brown. Remove it from the oven, and cool on a rack.
