My no-knead bread recipe:
Ingredients:
- 4 cups bread flour
- 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 2 cups warm water
Directions:
- Mix ingredients the day before in a big bowl with a mixing spoon. Form into a ball.
- Cover with plastic wrap and leave overnight.
- About 3 hours before done time, discard plastic wrap & stir with a wet spatula. Re-form into a ball.
- Cover with a dish towel.
- An hour or so before done time, put a cast iron pot in the oven (without the lid) and pre-heat to 450ºF.
- When hot, take out the pot, put a sheet of parchment paper on top, and use a wet spatula to transfer the dough. Trim the paper if needed.
- Cover pot and put in the oven for 37 minutes.
- Then uncover and bake for another 22 minutes, or until at least 208ºF.
- Remove and let cool on a wire rack.
- Eat with salted butter.
