In a large bowl, combine flour, active dry yeast, and salt
Add the water, and mix until all ingredients are perfectly combined and they form a ball.
Transfer to a greased bowl and cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap and a moistened kitchen towel
Let the dough rise in a draft-free place for 18 to 24 hrs. After the 18 to 24 hrs, the dough will look like this:
preheat the oven to 450F and put a dutch oven inside the oven while it preheats. Baking the bread in a preheated dish makes it crunchy
Turn dough into a floured surface
Gently gather the dough into a ball
Carefully place the dough into a preheated dutch oven and bake, covered for 30 minutes. Remove cover and bake for 15 mins more. Remove from the oven and cool in a rack.
