Homemade Bread

  1. In a bowl, blend the flour and the salt using an electric mixer. Slowly add the water. A few minutes before mixing completely, add the yeast. Knead the dough by hand until it is no longer sticky.
  2. Cover the bowl with a moist towel and place the bowl in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  3. Cut the dough with a knife into 120-gram portions. Let the portions rest for another 15 minutes, covering them with a moist rag.
  4. Press down on the dough balls, creating 20 to 25-centimeter long rectangles.
  5. Fold the two edges towards the center.
  6. Fold in half.
  7. Firmly press down and create a loaf shape.
  8. Place the loaves on top of a cotton or linen rag, sprinkled with flour. Create creases between the loaves so they won't stick together. Let them rest for 90 minutes covered with a moist rag.
  9. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  10. Place a pan containing wet rags and water in the oven, this will create vapor and make the bread crust crispy.
