My no-knead bread recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups bread flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 2 cups warm water

Directions:

  1. Mix ingredients the day before in a big bowl with a mixing spoon. Form into a ball.
  2. Cover with plastic wrap and leave overnight.
  3. About 3 hours before done time, discard plastic wrap & stir with a wet spatula. Re-form into a ball.
  4. Cover with a dish towel.
  5. An hour or so before done time, put a cast iron pot in the oven (without the lid) and pre-heat to 450ºF.
  6. 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. 
  7. Cover pot and put in the oven for 37 minutes.
  8. Then uncover and bake for another 22 minutes, or until at least 208ºF.
  9. Remove and let cool on a wire rack.
  10. Eat with salted butter.
