                          BREAD:
       1/4            oz  active dry yeast
       3/4           cup  lukewarm water -- (105-115F)
    2               cups  all-purpose flour -- plus extra for dusting
       1/4           cup  whole wheat flour
    1 1/2      teaspoons  salt
    1           teaspoon  cornmeal
                          TOPPING:
                          nonstick cooking spray
    1         tablespoon  finely chopped fresh rosemary
       1/2    tablespoon  flaky sea salt

Italian

Prep Time: 25 min + rising time
Cook Time: 40 min

In a small bowl, sprinkle yeast over 1/4 cup of the water. Let stand 
until foamy, about 5 minutes.

In a food processor, combine flours and salt. With the machine 
running, scrape the yeast mixture and the remaining 1/2 cup water 
through the feed tube until the dough just forms a ball. Knead the 
dough by pulsing until it is smooth and no longer sticky, about 30 times.

Spray a large bowl with nonstick spray; place the dough in the bowl. 
Cover loosely with a clean dishtowel and let the dough rise in a 
warm, draft-free place until it doubles in volume, about 1 hour.

Punch down the dough; lightly sprinkle a work surface with flour and 
turn dough out onto the surface. Roll the dough out into a 12x16" 
rectangle. Fold into thirds, lengthwise, and pinch seams to seal, 
forming into a 12" tapered oval loaf.

Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray; sprinkle the cornmeal in a 
12" strip down the center. Place the loaf on the baking sheet; cover 
loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let it rise in a warm, 
draft-free place until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.

Spray loaf with nonstick spray; sprinkle with rosemary and sea salt. 
With a serrated knife, cut 2-3 slashes into the top. Place in the 
upper third of a cold oven; set the oven to 400F. Bake about 20 
minutes; reduce oven temperature to 350F. Bake until loaf sounds 
hollow when tapped on the bottom, 20 to 25 minutes longer. Remove 
from the baking sheet and cool completely on a rack before slicing

Description:
    "There's nothing like a little homemade bread to dunk into soup 
on a chilly winter's day. This one has the perfect amount of flavor 
sprinkled on top."
