side of the bowl.Let it rise in the mixing bowl for about 5-10 minutes.Knead it again for about 5 minutes.Transfer it to a greased pan.Cover it and let it rise for about 1 hour (depending on the warmth
of your place).Preheat oven to 220 C (428F). Put a bowl with water on the lowest rack (the steam helps
producing a nice crust).Bake it for about 40 minutes.To check if the bread is done take it out of the pan and tap the
bottom of the bread. The bread will sound hollow if it's done.Let it cool down on a wire rack before you cut it.Enjoy!
