I have been making the NY Times No-Knead bread for just over 2 years now, and I think the only reason I am still doing it is because I have altered the timings a little and have a "cheats version" that is too easy. I mix up the dough as per the original recipe while I make dinner (although I do a mix of wholemeal and plain flour, and add LSA and chia seeds). I let it rise overnight and in the morning I put the dough out on the bench on a piece of floured baking paper (I roughly shape the dough into a loaf or a round using floured hands), and at the same time I turn the oven on. I give the oven about 20-30 mins to heat up and then just whack the bread in. I have gone back to using the cast iron pot just recently cos it gives such a lovely crust, but for about 18 months or so I would just put a tray in the oven to heat up. When it was time to put the bread in, I bring the hot tray to the bench and pull the baking paper/dough on to the dough. You don't get such a good crust but it's a completely respectable and delicious loaf of bread. Still looks pretty good too, if you artistically slash the top of the dough just before baking! But this way it fits in easily with my daily routine without having to calculate rising times in advance.rianznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315813441386653699.post-41875757291642655262013-04-30T15:33:11.031+10:002013-04-30T15:33:11.031+10:00aaahhhh Pip, she full of clever ideas isn't sh...aaahhhh Pip, she full of clever ideas isn't she?!Reannon Hopenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315813441386653699.post-34618965959897351902013-04-29T20:06:17.432+10:002013-04-29T20:06:17.432+10:00I am yet to try these versions (with the hot pot) ...I am yet to try these versions (with the hot pot) but do bake bread regularly.
