batter. Leave overnight.
The next day add the warm water to the starter and crumble in the yeast.
Mix to a soup. Addthe flour and mix or knead in the bowk to a quite slack
dough. Knead carefully for 5 minutes, keeping your hands as cleen as
possible. Leave the dough to rise in the bowl covered with oiled clingfilm
in a warm place (26C/80F) until doubled in size

Turn out on a well floured work surface and lightly fold the dough into a
ball. Place on a 30cm/12 inch square baking tray libarally scattered with
flour. Cover with oiled clingfilm and leave until again doubled in size

Have similar baking tray, oiled and slightly warmed, place it carefully on
the top of the risen loaf so that the shape is somewhat flattened then flip
it over when the smooth and floury side will be facing upwards. Let recover
for 20 minutes. Meanwhile heat the oven to 220C/425F/gas mark 7.

Either slash the top with a sharp knife or leave it to crack freestyle in
the oven. Bake for 35, until golden. Cool on a wire rack.
