  5. Rest the dough for 5 minutes on a floured surface. 
  6. Once rested, shape the dough into a ball
  7. Flatten the ball out with your hands and fold one side into the middle, pressing down the edge, and repeat this again. Roll it to an oblong shape. 
  8. Let prove on a baking tray until springy to the touch 
  9. Preheat your oven to 220 degrees, place a couple of ice cubes to create some steam into the oven. 
  10. Score your bread how you require and bake for 30-35 minutes.
