2. Put the flour on a work surface and knead the dough well until it no longer sticks to your hands.
3. Grease a loaf pan well with butter. Shape the dough into a plait and cover in the loaf pan and let rise for 2 hours.
4. Preheat the oven to 250 ° C, place an ovenproof bowl with water on the bottom and bake the bread until the desired brown color. Turn the temperature down to 180 ° C and bake for another 30 minutes. When the bread has reached a certain level of stability, you can put it on a baking sheet and bake brown all over for another 15 minutes with hot air. Brush the surface with the melted butter.
