Knead everything until a structured dough is obtained, maintaining a temperature of 26°C. Leave to rest at 28°C for 3 hours 30 minutes.

Proceed with autolysis for 30 minutes by placing the dough at +4°C. Start kneading by adding the yeast, and once the dough is structured, incorporate the polenta and salt. Keep the dough temperature at 26°C, let it rise for 90 minutes then weigh and give a light pre-shape. After 30 minutes, make the final shape and leave to rise at 28°C for a maximum for 180 minutes. For 1 kg pieces, steam at 230°C for 50 minutes, the last 20 minutes with the valve open.
