It calls for making a poolish (a preferment), and it's a very high hydration dough (82%), which means the dough will be wet and sticky. I highly recommend watching the video before attempting the recipe. Notes: As always, for best results, use a digital scale to measure the flour. I have had success using all-purpose flour, but if you can get your hands on bread flour (I use King Arthur Flour Bread Flour, which is 12.7% protein), that is ideal, especially if you live in Canada or abroad. If you live abroad or if you live in a humid climate, this may take a try or two to get right — I suggest making it once as written; then reducing the water by 50 grams or so depending on your results.)

Straight-Sided Vessel: The vessel I use in this recipe, similar to this one, is 8 cups. Most grocery stores carry storage vessels similarly sized. Using a straight-sided vessel for the bulk fermentation will help prevent over-fermentation because it allows you to see when the dough has truly increased by 75% (or slightly more or less) in volume.
This flattish crusty bread means ‘slipper’ in Italian, a reference to its shape. Its hole-filled structure is excellent for soaking up delicious juices on a plate without falling apart.
