Original No Knead Bread
A friend gave me this recipe and when i didn't find it here i decided i had to post it. I believe it was featured in the ny times at one point. This bread is so easy to bake and tastes great! This was the first loaf of bread i've ever made and it was perfect!
Steps
Mix dough: the night before , combine all ingredients in a big bowl with a wooden spoon until the dough just comes together.
It will be a shaggy , doughy mess.
Cover with plastic wrap and let sit 12-20 hours on counter top.
Shape & preheat: the dough will now be wet , sticky and bubbly.
With a wet spatula , dump the dough on a floured surface.
Fold ends of dough over a few times with the spatula and nudge it into a ball shape.
You can use your hands if you like , just keep your hands wet so that the dough does not stick.
Generously dust a cotton towel with flour.
Set dough seam side down on top of towel.
Fold towel over the dough.
Let it nap for 2 hours.
When youve got about a half hour left , slip your covered pot into the oven and preheat to 450f.
Bake: your dough should have doubled in size.
Remove pot from oven.
Holding towel , dump wobbly dough into pot.
Doesnt matter which way it lands.
Shake to even dough out.
Cover.
Bake 30 minutes.
Uncover , bake another 1.
