Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and yeast. Stir in the chopped rosemary and minced garlic.
Gradually add the warm water and olive oil, stirring until a sticky dough forms. The dough should be fairly wet and shaggy.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rest at room temperature for 12-18 hours.
Once the dough has rested, turn it out onto a floured surface and gently shape it into a round loaf.
Place the shaped dough on a piece of parchment paper and let it rise for 30-40 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C), placing a Dutch oven inside while it heats.
Once the dough has risen, carefully transfer it into the preheated Dutch oven (still on the parchment paper). Cover with a lid and bake for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the lid and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
Allow the bread to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For added flavor, try adding sun-dried tomatoes, black olives, or Parmesan before the first rise.

Swap rosemary for thyme, oregano, or your favorite herbs for a different flavor profile.

Brush the top of the loaf with garlic butter after baking for extra garlic flavor.
