Method
1. Heat the water until it is lukewarm. Add yeast and salt and whisk together. Don’t worry if it doesn’t fully absorb into the water.
2. Mix in the flour gradually with a wooden spoon. It will take a few minutes until the flour is mixed in uniformly.
3. Let rise for 2-5 hours. At this point you can store the dough in the refrigerator.
4. When you want fresh bread, cut off a grapefruit-sized piece of dough and shape until it’s uniform. Again, there’s no kneading required.
5. Let the dough rise on a pizza stone for 40 minutes.
6. Bake in an oven preheated to 450 degrees F on the pizza stone for 30 minutes.
7. Every time you need fresh bread, cut off a little more dough and go through the same procedure. Enjoy any day of the week. Yum!
