A Simple Bread Recipe That is Baked in a Dutch Oven.
Can one live on only bread dipped in olive oil and balsamic? If anyone out there is doing a scientific study on this, I'd like to sign up! Bread and butter, sandwiches, french toast, paninis, you name it--- I love bread.
I've been baking for a long time now, and I have NEVER made more than a banana bread. I don't really know why, but something about using yeast and having to knead are intimidating to me. I know that it really is not that scary or hard, but I have always stayed away.

I knew for my first bread recipe I wanted something simple... something I could use as a good base to experiment with flavors rather than with techniques. I settled on this recipe for crusty bread specifically because it seemed easy enough and because the bread is baked in a Dutch oven. My mom got be a beautiful Dutch oven for Christmas and I've been cooking all I can in it. I don't know how I survived without one for so long!
