Herb And Honey French Bread

• 1 tablespoon active yeast
• 5 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups lukewarm water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon caraway seed
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1. Place all of the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer. Use a spatula to roughly combine all of the ingredients. Let rest for 15 minutes.
2. Attach the dough hook to the stand mixer and knead on medium for 5 minutes. Cover and let rise for 60 minutes.
3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Punch down the dough, transfer to the lined baking sheet, and divide in half. Shape each half into a loaf and let rise for another 60 minutes.
4. Place a second baking sheet on the bottom rack of your oven and preheat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Dust the loaves with a sprinkling of flour and use a serrated knife to make three cuts on the top of each loaf.
5. Transfer the loaves on the lined baking sheet to the middle rack of the preheated oven. Carefully pour about a cup of water onto the hot baking pan on the bottom rack. Quickly close the oven door. Bake for 30 minutes.
