I usually swear against white flour, but being stuck at home, made me a little crazy and I was breaking my food rules left and right. These types of recipes will not happen often because I know they’re not super healthy and I am well-aware of the fact that they are SUPER addictive. I wish our apartment always smelled as good as it did while this bread was baking- absolutely indescribable. Made me feel like I was back in Italy, cooking in an outdoor Tuscan brick oven, it’s THAT good!
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cup water
4 tbsp fresh chopped rosemary

1 tsp sea salt

- Meanwhile, mix together flour and salt
- After 15 minutes add yeast/water, 1 tbsp oil and 1 tbsp rosemary to flour and mix well until sticky (it will be VERY sticky)
