  • You can use a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment to knead the dough if you prefer.
  • If you don't have a greased bowl, you can use a large plastic bag to cover the dough while it rises.
  • You can sprinkle some flour on top of the bread before baking to give it a rustic look.
  • Experiment with adding some herbs or spices to the dough to give it some extra flavor.
