Instructions: Allow dough to bulk ferment for two and a half hours, with a fold halfway through fermentation. Divide the dough into 1-lb. 8-oz. pieces, and preshape. Bench rest the dough pieces before shaping them. Then, ferment for another two to two and a half hours. Load the loaves into a steamed oven, and bake at 450°F for about 45 minutes. The dough holds a lot of moisture, so a full bake is advised.
