Step 5 of 22
6

Repeat 4 and 5 two times, for a total of three stretching sessions and 3 20 minute rests. Allow dough to rest about 3.5 hours. This is longer than the other no-knead doughs to allow the flavor to develop. After that period, the dough should be well risen in the plastic bin.

Step 19 of 22
20

Allow to rise till doubled in bulk. This can be a rather long time if you keep the proofing area cool. Cooler/slower rise will allow bacteria to develop that great sour taste. I let these rise 3 hours.

Step 20 of 22
21

Place on peel, baste with a cornstarch solution (mix some corn starch into some water, and bring to a boil. You want this to be a little thiner than honey), and sprinkle with more caraway seeds.

Step 21 of 22
22

Bake at 425 on stones with steam if possible. I use a convection oven, so I did 5 minutes with steam, 15 minutes without, and 5 minutes with oven turned off.
