hottest area is always somewhat to the right of the firebox. This is where I
put pans for a quick boil or anything that requires really high heat. If a
lower or more moderate temperature is needed, or as the food cooks, I move the
pans to different areas of heat on the stove top.

Instructions for Cooking Your Bread on Your Stoves in Hastings
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl and then add the water. Mix everything
together thoroughly and then scrape the dough out onto a clean surface. Knead
for about 10 minutes until you have elastic dough. Form this into a ball and
put into bowl and cover this with cling film. Leave to rest for an hour at room
temperature, by which time the dough will have doubled in size. Then scrape the
dough ball onto a clean, lightly floured surface. The dough can now be shaped
into the desired loaf, or separate rolls.
Blithely
dust the loaf with flour and cover with a floured tea towel for a further hour
until it has doubled in size. Gently load the loaf onto a peel that has been speckled
with a little coarse semolina.
This will help the loaf to slide easily from the
peel. Spray the loaf with some water using a plant sprayer and load into the
oven and close the door. Baking will take about 25-30 minutes for a large loaf
and 10-12 minutes for rolls. When the bread is tapped underneath and produces a
resonating sound the baking is complete.
