Carefully and quickly pour 3 4 cups of boiling water into it. place the scored dough baking pan on a higher rack and quickly shut the oven, trapping the steam inside. the steam helps create a crispier crust. place the shaped and scored dough (on the flour cornmeal dusted pan) in the preheated oven on the center rack.

Homemade Pumpernickel Bread Artofit Mix together the flour, salt and yeast, then add warm water and mix. the “dough” will be very wet and sloppy, not kneadable at all – this is what you want! see video at 17 seconds for consistency. 2. rise! cover with cling wrap then place it in a warm place (25 – 30°c 77 – 86°f) for 2 hours. In a very large (6 quart) bowl, combine the flour, salt, and yeast. mix to combine. add 3 cups of lukewarm water (no need to be exact but lukewarm is about 100°f). stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture is uniformly moist, without any patches of flour. the dough should be sticky and conform to the shape of the bowl. First rise: grease a large bowl with oil or cooking spray and place the dough inside, turning to coat. cover with a dish towel or plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place* until doubled in size, about 1 ½ hours. spray two 9x5'' bread pans generously with cooking spray on all sides. Repeat with the remaining piece of dough. place the loaves, seam side down, on a baking sheet (lined with parchment if desired). sprinkle the pan (or parchment) generously with cornmeal; this will keep the bread from sticking and give it a crunchy bottom crust. let the loaves rise, lightly covered with greased plastic wrap, for 45 minutes.

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and turn it over so it is completely coated. cover with plastic wrap and set in a draft free place to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface. gently press it all over to remove any air pockets. Preheat the oven to 500°f and place an empty cast iron or aluminum roasting pan into the bottom of the oven. preheat for 15 minutes. meanwhile heat 1 cup of boiling water on the stove. brush the loaves with cold water, place in the oven. pour boiling water into the empty tray.
