For a richer flavor, try using a high-quality honey such as buckwheat or wildflower.
The steam created by the pan of water in the oven helps to create a softer crust.
Be careful not to overbake the bread, as it can become dry.
For best results, use a thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the bread reaches 200-210°F.
