no knead Dutch oven bread

Is there such a thing as a 'no knead' bread, that takes hardly any hands-on time, but tastes like delicious artisan bread? I had not come across any, until I read in Mother Earth News magazine about the NY Times article.
The bread is made in a Dutch oven, which I have, so I thought I'd give it a try. It came out delicious!! A rustic flavorful crusty loaf ~ I know, it seems too good to be true...
If you are interested, you can read the Mother Earth News article & recipe here, and there's a video of the making of the bread here.
Happy Baking!

    This looks delicious! As I don't seem to be getting to my projects, I'm going to try your advice about getting my chores done in the morning and spend the afternoon for the fun stuff! Have a great weekend! ~ Lynda xo

  3. I went directly to the recipe site, printed off the recipe and several of the helpful comments, and then watched the video...incredible! I can't wait to try it. I am thinking this weekend would be good, as we have snow in the forecast and a Christmas tree to chop down! Thanks so much.

  4. This sounds so interesting to me. My hands hurt after kneading bread dough, this could just be the ticket.

    Thanks, I have bookmarked the site to read at my leisure.

  6. I love this recipe and my family is always impressed!

    I like that I can make it when I have energy in the morning and bake it for dinner.

    My kids like to dip it in olive oil and balsamic vinegar!

    I love your blog BTW!

  9. That bread is beautiful. I don't have a Dutch oven, though. I will go and read the article - maybe I'll get my Dutch oven for Christmas!

  11. I've been wanting to make this bread ever since the recipe was in the NY Times -- but alas no Dutch oven! So if Santa would please give me a Dutch oven, I would be ever so grateful.

    Thanks for reminding me about this bread. And thanks for your blog -- such a lovely place to visit.

  14. Here is the "quicker" no-knead bread recipe.

    I have been making the 18 hour version for months and then found this and find it to be a nice alternative.

    Hope you like it!

    When my M.E. News came this was the first article I turned to. I marked it as a "should" try. Glad to read a review on it, before I try. Now it is a "must" try.
    Thanks

    Made this bread today with 100% whole wheat flour, good but very dense. Thanks for the link.

    Anyone considering no-knead bread should read the work-over of this recipe in "Cook's Illustrated," Jan-Feb, 2008. Gives a good explanation of how it works, a great tip for getting the dough into the blazing hot dutch oven, and some recipe tweaks (a little lager, a little vinegar).

    This looks great, but after reading the recipe, it seems like it's more bother and time-consuming than making a good kneaded bread. I'll give it a try, though. Thanks for posting it!
