Effortless Rustic Bread

Ingredients:
water, bottled, generic
leavening agents, yeast, baker's, active dry
salt, table
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
cornmeal, degermed, unenriched, yellow

Directions:
Mix water, yeast, and salt together in a large bowl until mixture becomes foamy, about 10 minutes.
Stir flour into yeast mixture until well incorporated.
The dough will be loose and look wet.
Cover bowl loosely with a damp towel and let sit for about 5 hours.
Shape dough into 2 loaves using damp hands.
Place loaves on a cornmeal-dusted work surface and score the tops a few times with a sharp knife.
Allow loaves to double in size, 30 to 60 minutes.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Place loaves on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven, spraying the surface of the dough occasionally with water, until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
