In order for the bread to rise properly, you'll need to add some steam to the baking environment. A lidded Dutch oven is a simple way to accomplish this, but it's not the only way.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePlace a heavy metal baking pan (such as a 9x13x2-inch pan) on a rack below the one you intend to bake on. Preheat this pan with your oven. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf you have a pizza stone, place it on a rack above the one with the metal pan, ideally in the center of the oven. Preheat that as well. If you don't have a pizza stone, preheat a baking sheet instead.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhen the dough is scored and ready to bake, transfer it, using the parchment handles, onto the pizza stone or baking sheet. Then carefully pour hot water into the pan and close the oven. Bake in the steamy environment for 20 minutes. Then remove the pan and continue baking for 15 to 20 minutes, until the crust is as dark as you'd like.u003cbr/u003e
