Amazing, No-Knead, Crusty Bread
One of my favorite things about Paris was the amazing, crusty bread and delicious cheeses on every corner. No bread here really compares, but I think I found one that does! It isn’t difficult at all–I think I spent a total of 7 minutes on it over the course of 18 hours, and you don’t have to knead it. The only downside is that you have to wait about 10-12 (or more, in my case) hours before it is ready, but it’s worth the wait. I started it last night before bed and did the baking during Josiah’s nap. I tried it with white flour first, but I’ll be making it next time with wheat. Seriously, I’m so sad I didn’t pick up some camembert at the store today!
Do you have a real dutch oven? The bread sounds great but I don’t have one and was wondering what else would work.
Megan, we do have a dutch oven for camping, but I didn’t use it. I just used a larger, round casserole dish that had a lid. The lid is the important thing. Let me know if you want to borrow mine to try it out. I’ll be bringing it Friday.
I tried the bread this weekend. I added a little Rosemary. It was good but would have been much better with just a little sugar. Thanks for the recipe!
I just wanted to say that I love your site.
I always browse around and am inspired.
You are a great mom and wife! Way to go!
