Steps:
- In a medium bowl, stir together flour, salt, and yeast; stir in cheese and olives. Add water and, using a wooden spoon or your hand, mix until a wet, sticky dough forms, about 30 seconds, adding additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature until dough has doubled in size and surface becomes dotted with bubbles, 12 to 18 hours.
- Generously flour work surface; scrape dough onto work surface. Lightly flour hands, a bowl scraper, or a spatula and lift edges of dough toward the center. Nudge and tuck edges of dough to make round.
- Place a piece of parchment paper on work surface and generously dust with flour. Gently place dough on parchment, seam-side down. If dough is tacky, lightly dust top with flour. Cover dough loosely with wax paper and two clean kitchen towels. Let dough stand in a warm, draft-free spot until almost doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
- Gently poke dough with your finger; dough should hold the impression. If it springs back, let rise 15 minutes more.
- Ten minutes before dough has finished rising, preheat oven to 475 degrees on a conventional oven (450 degrees on a convection oven) with a rack in the lower third. Place a covered 3 1/2-quart cast-iron or enameled cast-iron Dutch oven (with plastic handle removed and screw hole plugged with aluminum foil) in center of rack.
- Using pot holders, carefully remove preheated Dutch oven from oven and uncover. Uncover bread and loosen bottom with a large spatula. With the aid of the parchment paper, invert bread into preheated Dutch oven so that it is seam-side up. Cover Dutch oven and transfer to oven; bake for 25 minutes.
- Uncover and continue baking until bread is dark brown but not burnt, 15 to 30 minutes more. Using a heatproof spatula or pot holders, gently lift bread from Dutch oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
CHEESE-AND-OLIVE LOAF
Think about adding herbs, bits of bacon, cubes of cooked chicken, canned tuna, chopped sauteed onions, sun-dried tomatoes or diced ham. Chez Patricia Wells: A Dinner with Friends and Truffles-Lots of Them. This loaf will keep for up to three days, if wrapped well in saran wrap or tin foil. If served in true French fashion, this loaf is meant to be served as pre-dinner nibble with a glass of Champagne or white wine or a chilled rose. It is also very good served with salads.

Steps:
- Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400º F.
- Oil or butter an 8 1/2-x-4 1/2-inch loaf pan, one that holds 6 cups (nonstick is nice here).
- Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium mixing bowl.
- In another bowl or a measuring cup, lightly beat the eggs and whisk in the milk, olive oil and tapenade.
- Pour the liquid ingredients over the flour mixture and stir gently to blend.
- Switch to a rubber spatula and fold in the cheese, olives and grated zest, if you're using it & scrape the batter into the pan.
- Bake the loaf for 10 minutes, then turn the oven down to 375ºF.
- Continue to bake the loaf for another 35 minutes or so, until it's puffed, beautifully golden and a slender knife inserted deep into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
- Transfer the pan to a cooling rack, let it rest about 5 minutes, then turn it out.
- Allow the loaf to remain on the rack, right side up, until it comes to room temperature.
- Enjoy!
