Add flour, salt and yeast to a large bowl. Stir to combine.
Next add the water and stir again. Dough will be sticky. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit for 12-18 hours.
Transfer dough to floured surface and fold a few times, until dough isn't sticky and forms a ball. Place on parchment paper seam side down, shape and flour.
Preheat the oven to 450°, place the dutch oven inside immediately and let it preheat as well. After 30 minutes, (optional: score bread with knife to create design) carefully transfer dough and parchment paper into the dutch oven. Bake covered for 30 minutes. And then uncover and bake for another 10-15 minutes. Until crust reaches desired doneness.
