In this video I'll show you how to make three versions of easy rustic bread using one simple dough. Take your pick! All of these loaves are beginner friendly and with a few small variations on shaping and baking, you're left with a rustic, crusty, bread worthy of your dinner table. No mixer or sourdough starter required.

INGREDIENTS:
****TO MY FRIENDS IN EUROPE/UK: The all purpose flour that i typically use is King Arthur which is about 11.7% protein. Your All Purpose flour may be different than what's available in the US. If in doubt, choose a flour that has between 1112% protein and you should be in good shape!

ALSO if you have never made bread before, this dough is 78% hydration and will be slightly sicky. Use 75 less grams water in the final dough and it will be much easier to handle.
