The last person to make No Knead Bread

I am well behind the rest of the world on this one. The NY Times unveiled the No Knead Bread recipe on the 8th November 2006 and I have only today found time to make it.

Well yesterday and today.

No Knead Bread

The trick is allowing the dough time to rise – 18 hours – and I imagine you could get away with less time if it wasn’t so freaking cold in my house.

The result – crunchy chewy crust – soft light interior.

Bliss.

I’m only posting this now to distract myself until Groover gets home so he can get a slice…

Of course baking bread also looks good to my daughter’s friend’s mother – see I can cook bread – I am trustworthy – I am the sort of homey type who will look after your daughter with care. Look at me – I am the GOOD mother.
;)

(Oh how easily you are all fooled…)

    Hi River, I’ve started my second loaf today… this time just using white “bread” flour. last time I used half normal white flour and half wholemeal flour.

    If you follow the link in the first par you’ll find the recipe.
