Bread with Cracklings

Pour 700 ml of lukewarm water at approximately 30 °C into a bowl and add the other ingredients. Mix, transfer to a stand mixer, and let it mix for 10 minutes. One minute before the end of mixing, add the finely chopped cracklings. Turn the smoothly kneaded dough onto a lightly floured surface, dust it very lightly with flour, cover with a clean tea towel or cling film to prevent drying, and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 250 °C. Lightly dust a baking sheet with flour.

Divide the rested dough into 2 parts. Form both parts into loaves on a floured surface. Transfer them smooth side down (seam side up) into lightly floured proofing baskets and let them rise for 50 minutes.
