Instructions
Roasting the Garlic
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Add 6-8 peeled garlic cloves to a small oven-safe ramekin. Pour 1 tablespoon of oil over the cloves. Cover the ramekin in foil and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until cloves are soft.
Making the Dough
Mix flour, salt, yeast, warm water and roasted garlic cloves together using a Danish dough hook or wooden spoon. The dough will be sticky.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap or damp towel and let rise on counter for 2 hours.
Place bowl in refrigerator and let rest another 2 hours.
Sprinkle dough with a small amount of flour (to make it easier to work with) and form into ball on floured surface.
Wash bowl and place a piece of parchment paper inside bowl.
Place dough on top of parchment paper. Brush dough with olive oil and sprinkle liberally with grated asiago cheese. Sprinkle with sea salt (optional).
Cover with damp cloth, and let rise until dough is room temperature (about an hour).
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place Dutch oven pot inside oven while it preheats.
Use the parchment paper to lift dough out of bowl and place into pot.
Place lid on Dutch oven. Bake bread for 30 minutes.
Remove lid. Bake bread an additional 15-20 minutes.
Remove bread, peel off parchment paper and allow bread to cool on wire rack.
