   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3               cups  bread flour -- or All-purpose flour
   1 1/2            tsp  salt
      1/2           tsp  yeast
   1 1/2           cups  water -- lukewarm

This wonderfully simple bread requires no kneading and no shaping 
skills. If you can mix something with a spoon, then that's the only 
skill you will need to make this gorgeous loaf of bread.
The only investment you make with this bread is time. It requires at 
least 12 hours to sit and ferment and yes, the hardest part of the 
entire thing is the wait.

Prep: 5 mins
Cook: 50 mins
Resting Time: 18 hrs

Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add only enough water to 
make a soft, yet stringy dough. The dough will be VERY sticky and 
look like a thick batter.

Cover the bowl and let it sit from 12 to 18 hours. This will develop 
the flavor.

Place a sheet of parchment (should be at least 14"/36 cm square) on 
the counter and dust heavily with flour.

While the dough is still in the bowl, turn it over on itself several 
times. Wet your hands; it makes it easier. Now turn the dough out on 
the floured parchment, seam (if any) side down. Dust the top with 
flour and cover with the bowl inverted. Let rest for about 1-1 1/2 hours.

While the dough is resting, place a 4-quart covered dutch oven with 
the cover on in the oven and pre-heat to 425F/220C.

Grabbing the parchment, carefully place the rested dough in the hot 
dutch oven letting the paper overhang. Replace the cover and place it 
back in the oven for 30 minutes.

Remove the cover after it has baked the 30 minutes and continue 
baking for 20 additional minutes or until the top is nicely browned.

Remove from oven and let the bread sit in the dutch oven for 15 
minutes; remove to a rack to cool.
