The bread is in fact prepared quite easily. Most importantly, to have everything you need to prepare the ingredients. Also, I want to note that I have this recipe always make the evening knead the dough and leave it to go overnight and in the morning directly put it in the oven.

After this, shift the bread dough in the saucepan.
