Mission Fig Bread Recipe

This dense and chewy bread, with its crunchy crust, is packed with flavor. Read all the way through the directions before starting; it's an overnight bread, so you'll need to plan ahead. Also, this recipe comes from baker martin philip and our king arthur bakery. Since our bakers put together their formulas using gram measurements, rather than ounces or volume, you'll be most successful if you make this bread with the aid of a gram scale.
