Add milk mixture to flour mixture, stirring just until combined. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Sprinkle cornmeal or semolina flour onto dough. Cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free place (75°F/24°C) until doubled in size and dough almost fills pan, 25 to 30 minutes. Bake until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted in center registers 190°F (88°C), 20 to 25 minutes, covering with foil during final 5 minutes of baking to prevent excess browning.

Diamond Crystal kosher salt was used in this recipe (1 tablespoon is 9 grams). If you a have different brand or type of salt, use the weight listed in the recipe, not the volume measurement. If you do not have a scale, check your brand’s website for what the equivalent volume measurement is for the weight listed in this recipe. Pro Tip: For an even more flavorful loaf, cover and refrigerate your dough overnight at the end of step 5. Let it come to room temperature and then let stand while your oven preheats.
