Cover witth a lid and put in the fridge over night.
2. Next morning: take your dough out of the fridge one or two hours before you intend to bake your bread.
3. Pour the dough on a oven tray armed with parchment paper.
4. With a finger tip make some holes in your dough an sprinkle all over with some olive oil.

I like this bread fresh out of the oven to dip in different oils such as hazelnut oil, different olive oils (italian, greek, croatian..)....
