1 Cup 100-110 degree water
2 Tablespoons olive oil
3 Cups bread flour
1 Package fast rising yeast
2 Teaspoons sugar
Pinch salt
In a bowl add the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix together well. Add the water and olive oil. Mix until it all comes together then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead for 10 minutes until the dough turns smooth. Form the dough into a ball and put into an oiled bowl. Cover with a dishtowel and let rise for 40 minutes. Punch down the dough and form into a baguette shape. Dust a heavy sheet pan with corn meal and put the dough onto the pan. Cover with the dishtowel and let rise for another 40 minutes. With a sharp knife make 1 inch slices into the dough. Bake for 25-35 minutes in a 375 degree oven. Let rest for at least 1 hour before slicing. Eat and enjoy...
To be honest this loaf didn't come out so well - Ok it sucked - It was heavy and kinda flat tasting... Will keep trying though...
Bon Appetit...
