This is the easiest bread I have ever made. And it doesn't use any sugar!
Start by mixing 3 cups of all purpose flour, a teaspoon of salt and a teaspoon of yeast together in a bowl. Add 1-1/2 cups of warm water to the mixture. Stir the ingredients and cover the bowl. Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 8 hours. You can let the mixture sit for up to 24 hours. Once you have waited at least 8 hours, turn the out on a lightly floured surface and form a ball. Now let the ball rest, uncovered, for 30 minutes. After 20 minutes, pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees and place a 6 qt. high sided pan into the oven to pre-heat as well. Something like a dutch oven is ideal. Once the oven reaches 450 degrees, transfer the dough ball into the dutch oven and cover the pan with aluminum foil. Bake the dough for 30 minutes, then uncover the bread and continue to bake for an additional 12 minutes. Done! Bread, anyone?
