*Mix ingredients in a bowl with a spoon and cover with plastic wrap. Leave out on the counter for 12-24 hours. Dough will be a little dry & flakey.
*When ready to bake, put empty enamel pot (with lid on) in the oven at 450 degrees to heat up.
*Remove dough from bowl, shape into a ball and put on a floured piece of parchment, spray with no stick spray, cover with plastic wrap and let sit for 30 mins.
*After 30 mins (carefully) remove hot pot from the oven. Set parchment and dough in the pot, cut a few slits in the top of the bread, and put the lid back on. *Return pot to the oven and bake for 25 mins. Remove lid and bake for an additional 13-15 mins to brown the top. (Brush with olive oil/garlic/rosemary etc. at this point if desired)
*Remove from oven and place bread on a cooling rack.
