In a large bowl add all the ingredients above the optional on the list. Mix well
You want the dough to be a bit wet and sticky
Cover the large bowl with plastic wrap ( I found this to be the best way)
Leave for 18 hours on the counter
Take a dutch oven and place in your oven - preheat to 400 - you want the dutch oven to become hot in the oven
While you are preheating your oven take the dough ( it should have bubbles on the top and should have doubled or tripled in size) and place on a well floured surface.
Roll the dough around in the flour until it is not longer sticky
Dough needs to rest for 30 minutes - I wrap the dough in the plastic wrap I used for the bowl
Once the 30 minutes is up place the dough without the plastic wrap into the dutch oven ( do not grease the dutch oven. Place the top on the dutch oven and bake for 30 minutes
Take the top off the dutch oven and bake for another 15
The bread should be golden brown and let cool for about 30 minutes
Enjoy!
