Rustic No Knead Rosemary Garlic Bread is the epitome of simple yet flavorful bread. The dough, left to rise slowly over time, results in a wonderfully airy and chewy texture, with a beautifully crispy crust. The infusion of fresh rosemary and garlic gives each bite a savory aroma that will fill your kitchen with warmth and anticipation.
- Ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 1/4 cups warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for a hint of sweetness)
- Extra flour for dusting
- Coarse sea salt for topping
Directions:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and instant yeast.
- Add the warm water, olive oil, and honey (if using), stirring until a shaggy dough forms.
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 12-18 hours, allowing the dough to rise and develop flavor.
- Once the dough has risen, gently fold in the fresh rosemary and minced garlic.
- Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface and shape it into a round loaf. Let it rest for 30 minutes while you preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
- Place a Dutch oven or heavy pot with a lid into the oven while it preheats.
- After 30 minutes, carefully remove the hot pot from the oven. Place the dough into the pot, sprinkle with coarse sea salt, and cover with the lid.
- Bake for 30 minutes with the lid on, then remove the lid and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the bread from the pot and allow it to cool on a wire rack before slicing.
