Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC). Cut the garlic head in half, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, wrap in foil, and roast for 40 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before squeezing out the cloves.
In a mixing bowl, combine water and yeast; let sit for 10–15 minutes until foamy. In another bowl, mix flour, oregano, salt, and rosemary.
Add the yeast mixture along with smashed roasted garlic and olive oil into the flour mixture; stir until just combined.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let rise in a warm spot for about 8–10 hours until doubled in size.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface, shape into a ball seam side up in a floured bowl, cover again, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 48 hours.
Preheat Dutch oven to 450ºF (232ºC). Carefully turn out dough onto parchment paper, shape into a loaf while scoring the top with a sharp knife. Transfer to hot Dutch oven, cover with lid, and bake for 30 minutes; then remove lid and bake an additional 15–20 minutes until golden brown.
Let cool on wire rack for at least one hour before slicing.
