- Combine the poolish, flour, oil, and salt into a shaggy mess and allow to rest for 20 mins
- Tip into the bread machine and mix for 10 to 12 minutes, until you have a soft, smooth silky dough.
- Lightly oil a separate bowl, place the dough in the oiled bowl and cover it, allow it to rise (proof) for at least 1 hour in a warm draught free spot.
- Once you dough has doubled in size remove it from the bowl onto a lightly floured surface and knock it back, once degassed, form it into a fat sausage shape and place it in a 2lb / 900g well greased loaf pan/tin, lightly sprinkle it with flour cover with a dry lightweight cloth, and once again allow it to rise (proof) for one hour in a warm draught free spot.
- When there is only 10 minutes left on the rise, preheat your oven to 180°C
- Once the dough is approx 4cm / 1½in above the top of the tin, place it the pre-heated oven, and set your timer for 30 minutes.
- Once the oven time is reached, take it out of the oven, and remove the loaf from the tin, place it back into the oven for a further 5 minutes to crisp up the sides and bottom.
- When the time is up, place it on a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes.
