In a spiral mixer, combine dry ingredients. Add 650g cold water and mix on slow speed for 4–5 minutes and then on medium for 6-8 minutes. Add olives and rosemary, mix on slow speed and mix for 1–2 minutes. Lightly oil a container and allow the dough to bulk ferment for 1.5–2 hours. Perform a stretch-and-fold at the 1-hour mark (optional). Scale, divide and pre-shape into boules or bâtards. Rest for 20 minutes. Final shape and place seam-side up into well-floured bannetons. Final proof at room temperature for 45–75 minutes or cold retard overnight for enhanced flavour. Pre-heat oven to 230°C with Dutch oven or baking stone.
