Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
1 1/2 cups water, at room temperature
2 tablespoons cornmeal
Instructions:
Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, minced garlic, rosemary, salt, pepper, and yeast.
Add Water: Pour in the water and mix until a wet, sticky dough forms. Cover with plastic wrap and let it stand at room temperature for 18-24 hours.
Prepare the Skillet: Lightly oil a cast-iron skillet and sprinkle it with cornmeal. Shape the dough into a round and place it into the skillet. Cover and let rise for 2 hours.
Preheat and Bake: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Bake the bread until golden brown, about 30-40 minutes.
