EVERYTHING BAGEL SEASONING PEASANT BREAD

Steps:

• If you are using instant yeast: Whisk together the flour, salt, sugar and instant yeast in a large bowl. Add the water and mix until it is absorbed. If you are using active-dry yeast: Dissolve the sugar into the water in a small bowl. Sprinkle the yeast over top; there is no need to stir. Let it stand until the mixture is foamy, 10 to 15 minutes. Whisk together the flour and salt in a large bowl. Stir the foamy yeast mixture, then add it to the flour mixture until it is absorbed.
• Cover the bowl with a tea towel or plastic wrap and set aside in a warm spot to rise until the dough doubles in volume, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours (see Cook's Note).
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease two 1-quart oven-safe bowls with 1 tablespoon of butter each. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the everything bagel seasoning or your seed mix of choice into each bowl. Turn the bowl to ensure the entire surface is coated in the seasoning. Set aside.
• Using 2 forks, release the dough from the sides of the bowl. As you release the dough from the sides, pull it towards the center. Using your 2 forks, divide the dough into 2 equal portions: eye the center of the mass of dough, and starting from the center and working out, pull the dough apart. Use the two forks again to transfer each half into your prepared bowls.
• Let the dough rise until it just crowns the rim of the bowls, about 30 minutes; depending on the time of year, this may take more or less time.
• Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375 degrees F and bake until the loaves are evenly golden all around, 17 to 20 minutes more. Remove the bowls from the oven and turn the loaves out onto cooling racks. Let cool for at least 20 minutes before cutting.
