Salty olives such as kalamata should be rinsed to remove some of their brine; oil cured olives will produce a more mellow flavour. Olive lovers may add an additional quarter cup (75ml) of olives.

Makes one loaf.

Preparation: 30 minutes, plus 3 to 3-1/2 hours rising time, 30 minutes baking time, and 1 hour or longer for cooling.

10ounces (283g) unbleached bread flour (2-1/4 to 2-3/4 cups [550-675ml])

5ounces (140g) whole wheat flour (1 cup [250ml])

1ounce (30g) rye flour (1/4 cup [50ml])

2teaspoons (10ml) fine sea salt

1 teaspoon (5ml) instant yeast

1 teaspoon (5ml) extra virgin olive oil

1-1/4 cups (300ml) water (10 ounces [210g])

1/2 cup (125ml) pitted and coarsely chopped imported black olives

1 tablespoon (15ml) chopped fresh rosemary

Whole rosemary sprigs for garnish, cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) lengths

Cornmeal for the peel or baking sheet Flour for dusting

Insert the dough blade. Combine the flour, salt, yeast and olive oil in the work bowl. Test the tem- perature of the flour mixture using an instant read thermometer. Adjust the water temperature so that the individual temperatures of the flour and water when combined equal 145˚F (62˚C) (i.e. if the flour is 70˚F [21˚C], then the water must be 75˚F [23˚C]). This is the base temperature. With the machine running on dough speed, add the water through the small feed tube and process for 45 seconds. Transfer the dough to a large ungreased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for about 1-1/2 to 2 hours at room temperature.

Move the uppermost rack of the oven so that it is about 8 inches (20cm) from the top of the oven and place a baking stone on the rack. Place a small cast iron skillet to preheat on the floor or lower rack of the oven. Preheat the oven to 475˚F (245˚C).

Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Flatten into a 12-inch (30cm) square using the palms of your hands. Sprinkle with the chopped olives and chopped rosemary. Fold the dough over onto itself and knead for 3 to 4 minutes to thoroughly incorporate the olives and rosemary. If the dough is difficult to knead, cover with a towel and let rest for 10 minutes, then continue kneading.

Form into a round loaf. Sprinkle a cloth-lined basket or banneton with flour. Place the dough in the basket, with the seam showing on top of the loaf on top. Dust with flour and loosely cover with plastic wrap. Allow the dough to rise at least 1 hour at room temperature. It will be visibly risen and spring back when gently pressed with a finger.

Just before baking, gently invert the bread rising basket onto a baker’s peel or the back of a baking sheet that has been dusted with cornmeal. Sprinkle the top of the loaf with additional flour. Using a serrated knife, score the dough in a star pattern - starting from the center, make a short 3-inch (8cm) slash. Rotate the bread and continue slashing until a star pattern is formed on the top of the dough. Insert a few sprigs of rosemary into the surface of the dough.

Slide the loaf onto the baking stone, and then carefully pour 1 cup (250ml) of warm water into the cast iron pan in the oven. Reduce the heat to 450˚F (230˚C). Bake the bread for 30 minutes, and then reduce the temperature to 425˚F (215˚C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes. The crust will be well browned and the loaves will sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. The internal temper- ature of the bread will be 205˚ to 210˚F (95˚ to 99˚C) when tested with an instant read thermometer . Remove the bread from the oven and place on a rack to cool completely before slicing or storing.
