To begin: The ingredients are kneaded for the rst time (5 minutes)
At 3:25, the dough rests for 10 minutes
At 3:15, the dough is kneaded for the second time (20 minutes)
At 2:55, the dough begins to rise (39 minutes)
At 2:15, the dough is “punched down” (10 seconds)
At 2:15, the dough continues to rise (25 minutes and 50 seconds)
At 1:49, the dough is shaped (10 seconds)
At 1:49, the dough comes to the last period of rise (49 minutes and 50 seconds)
At 0:60, the dough begins to bake (60 minutes)
At 0:00, the bread is nished.
