5 ½ - 5 ¾ cups flour (we prefer bread, can use all-purpose or whole wheat - see post for details)
1 package instant yeast (1 package = 2 ¼ tsp)
2 teaspoon salt
2 ¼ cups water

In a large bowl, whisk together 5 ½ cups flour, yeast, and salt.
Add in the water. Using a spatula, fold until mostly combined. Sprinkle a little more flour if needed to not be sticky and form a ball. Knead until smooth but do not over knead.
*Can also do this in a stand mixer.
Once ball is formed, grease the same bowl mixed in and place the dough ball back into the bowl.
Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let sit for 90 minutes in a warm, draft free place until doubled.
Once doubled, punch down and divide into 4 even pieces (we use a scale to measure). Roll each piece into a ball. Cover the pieces with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
Take one piece and push it out into a flat circle. Take the right side and fold over to the middle of the circle, pinch together the piece you folded so the dough it's now touching. Then take the new right side and fold it all the way over to the left. Pinch the ends together.
Roll out into a 15-16 inch log. Place on a parchment lined and lightly floured baking sheet and repeat with remaining pieces.
Let that rise for another 60-90 minutes or until doubled. 15 minutes until the timer is done, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F
Score the bread with a lame or pairing knife (see notes in post above). Bake about 25-30 mins until done and golden brown.
Remove from oven and serve as desired.
