Sourdough adds depth of flavor and is a natural leavening agent.

Whisk warm water and dry yeast until the yeast dissolves.

Add bread flour and salt to the bowl and mix until there is no dry flour left.

Cover the bowl and let it rest at room temperature until it doubles in size.

Transfer the dough to a well-floured surface and fold it 1-2 times.

Shape the bread with your hands and cover it to rest for 15 minutes.

Heat a cast iron, enamel, ceramic, or Pyrex pot.

Transfer the dough to the hot pot and cut a slit in the top of the bread.

Spray water on the dough.

Cook with the lid closed at 220°C (428°F) for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, cook with the lid open.
