  3. Then add all the other ingredients and knead everything for 5 minutes at a kneading speed.
  4. The bakers without Thermomix can do it too. It`s quite a soft, sticky batter.

  6. Place the dough on the floured work surface and fold it up ten times. Shape a loaf of bread and place in the greased and floured roasting pan or dry Roman pot. Dust again with flour, this gives the rustic look. Make a cut with a sharp knife.
