This loaf is simple and easy to make. I recommend it to be done in a mixer, preferably tabletop, with dough hooks.

- Preheat the oven to 190 C / Gas 5. Put the flour and yeast into a bowl and mix together.
- Then add the salt and add the water gradually to the mix to form a soft but not sticky dough.
- Then wrap the bowl with cling film and leave to rise for roughly 30 minutes until it has doubled in size.
- After perform an action called knocking back: to do this just knead the dough with your hands to knock the air out.
- Then leave the dough to rise again. Once it has risen a bit more, shape the dough, or put the dough into the loaf tin.
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 1 hour.
