How to prepare the quick bread from the pot
Mix the flour, yeast and salt in a large enough mixing bowl. First add 350 ml of lukewarm water and stir everything until a smooth dough is formed. If necessary, add more water if the dough is still too dry and lumpy. Important: Never knead (the dough would be too sticky for that). As soon as a ball has formed from the dough, cover the bowl with a clean, damp cloth and let the dough rise at room temperature for up to 16 hours . Check the dough before further processing. It should have risen and show some bubbles or holes. Preheat the oven to 230 degrees top and bottom heat. Now sprinkle a baking paper with some flour and then carefully transfer the dough out of the bowl onto the paper. Shape the dough loosely and without kneading into a ball and cover it again with a damp kitchen towel. Now take an ovenproof pot - ideal is a cast iron roaster with a diameter of about 25 cm and lift the dough ball and baking paper into it. Put the lid on the pan and bake the bread for 30 minutes. Then remove the lid and bake the bread for another 10 to 15 minutes until it has a nice golden color and is crispy. Then lift it out of the pot and use the knock test to check whether the bread is through. It should sound hollow when you knock on the floor. Let the bread cool on a wire rack and enjoy it as fresh as possible. You don't always want to wait 12 to 16 hours before you can bake fresh bread? Then the five-minute method is for you.
