step 1

For the poolish, in a bowl combine All-Purpose Flour (2 1/2 Tbsp) with Water (0.5 oz) and Fresh Yeast (1/4 tsp). Stir and cover with plastic wrap. Let it rest until it doubles in size and bubbles form on top.

step 2

1 hour before poolish is ready, in a bowl mix Type 00 Flour (1 1/3 cups) and Spelt Flour (1/3 cup) with Water (4 oz).

step 3

Next, add poolish to the flour mix and Water (0.5 oz).

step 4

Mix well until the dough comes together then add Salt (1 tsp) and remaining Water (0.5 oz) and keep kneading until you get a smooth and elastic dough. Let it rest for 1 hour.

step 5

Then do a few rounds of slap and fold. Depending on how well the gluten in the dough has developed. In my case, 2 rounds were enough. Let dough rest at room temperature covered with plastic wrap until it doubles in size.

step 6

Next, fold the dough in 3 and let it rest for 1 more hour.

step 7

Last proceed with giving the dough a round shape, sealing it well. Place it sealed up into a basket lined with a floured towel. Cover with plastic wrap and let double in size at room temperature. Then move it in your fridge overnight.

step 8

Next morning, transfer the bread into a dutch oven pan, flour the top and place a cut on the top.

step 9

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

step 10

Bake covered with a lid at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 20 minutes.

step 11

Remove the lid and keep baking for 20 more minutes at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

step 12

Then turn down the temperature to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and cook for 10 minutes, with the last 5 minutes of baking with your oven’s door slightly open, this will help dry up your bread.

step 13

Let the bread cool down completely on a wire rack and slice and enjoy!
