NO-KNEAD ARTISAN STYLE BREAD

This is a very easy bread to make without any kneading. Bake in a Dutch oven or heavy casserole dish. The bread comes out very crusty and with huge holes throughout, just like at the bakery.

Time P2DT3h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 teaspoons salt
1 ⅔ cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, yeast, and salt in a large bowl and mix to combine. Add the water and herbs, if using, and mix well. The dough will be very sticky and shaggy-looking. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside at room temperature for 18 to 24 hours.
  • Generously flour a work surface. The dough will have risen and will be covered in bubbles. Transfer the dough to the work surface and dust it with flour. Fold the dough in half, and then form the dough into a ball by stretching and tucking the edges of the dough underneath the ball.
  • Liberally flour a kitchen towel (do not use terrycloth). Place the dough ball on the floured towel. Cover with another floured towel. Let the dough rise for about two hours [see footnote].
  • Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place a lidded Dutch oven or deep heavy duty casserole dish (with lid) into the oven to preheat.
  • Carefully remove the hot baking dish from the oven. Remove the lid and gently turn the dough ball into the ungreased baking dish, seam-side up; shake the dish so the dough is more evenly distributed.
  • Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and bake until the crust is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the loaf from the baking dish and let it cool on a rack before slicing.

Time P1DT1h

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 cups (360 grams) of bread flour
¼ teaspoon active dry yeast
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 ⅓ cups (316 ml) lukewarm water*

Steps:

  • Mix in the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
  • Pour in 1 ⅓ cups (316 ml.) lukewarm water.
  • Give it a mix using a wooden spoon. At this point, the dough needs to be quite sticky. If it is not, after you fully mixed it, add in more water in 1-tablespoon increments. Alternatively, you can use your clean hands to mix and feel the stickiness.
  • Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let it sit in a warmer part of your house for 18-24 hours.
  • Lightly flour your kitchen counter, gently remove the dough from the bowl, and place it onto your work surface. While removing, you will realize that it is quite sticky. However, if you take your time and gently pull it by folding it onto itself, you will see that it will come out easily without any dough remaining in the bowl.
  • Form the dough into a ball tucking the sides of the dough under. Transfer the dough onto a large parchment paper, lightly dust with a little bit of flour, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise for 1-2 hours or until it doubles in size. Again, I recommend letting it sit in a warmer part of your house.
  • Towards the end of the rising time, place your dutch oven in the oven and pre-heat it to 450 F degrees (230 C Degrees).
  • When ready to bake, take the now-very hot dutch oven out of the oven. Using the edges of the parchment paper carefully place the dough into the dutch oven. Put the lid on and let it bake for 30 minutes. Then remove the lid and continue to bake another 20-30 minutes or until the top is nicely golden brown as you see in the photos.
  • At the end of the baking, remove it from the dutch oven, place it onto a cooling rack and let it cool for 30-45 minutes before slicing.

No Knead Artisan Bread image

Categories     Bread

Time 2h52m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups bread flour, (or plain/all purpose (15.8 oz. or 450g))
1 tablespoon white granulated sugar
2 teaspoons dried, (instant or rapid rise yeast)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) warm water
1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine flour, sugar, yeast and salt in a large bowl. Add water and oil, mixing to incorporate all of the ingredients together. Dough will be wet, sticky and shaggy.
  • Lightly spray the top with cooking oil spray. Cover with plastic wrap and place a dry tea towel over the top.
  • Leave in a warm, draft-free place for 2-3 hours, until doubled in size. Dough will have a lot of little holes or bubbles and be wobbly like jelly.
  • Place a large (10-inch or 26cm) dutch oven or heavy based pot in the oven with a lid. Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) 30 minutes before baking.
  • Lightly flour work surface and plastic spatula with up to 1 tablespoon flour. Scrape dough out of bowl onto work surface with spatula. Sprinkle the top of dough with a large pinch of flour and fold it over on itself with the spatula (about 5-6 folds). Roughly form a round shape.
  • Measure out a large piece of parchment paper, large enough to transfer the dough into the pot. Place paper next to the dough and roll dough onto the paper, smooth side up. Carefully move it to the centre of the paper and reshape if needed, or shake pan a couple of times to evenly distribute dough. (It will even out while baking.)
  • Loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rest while oven is preheating.
  • Use oven mitts to carefully remove hot dutch oven from oven. Grab the parchment paper from each end to pick up the dough and transfer it into the pot.
  • Cover with lid and bake for 30 minutes, then remove lid and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, until loaf is beautifully golden browned.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

  • Always use fresh ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will result in the best-tasting bread.
  • Don't over-knead the dough: Over-kneading can make the bread tough and chewy, so just knead it until it comes together and is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: The dough needs a warm place to rise in order to double in size. A warm oven is a good option, or you can place the dough in a warm spot in your kitchen.
  • Don't over-proof the dough: Over-proofing can make the bread too soft and airy, so just let it rise until it has doubled in size.
  • Bake the bread in a hot oven: A hot oven will give the bread a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
  • Let the bread cool before slicing it: Letting the bread cool before slicing it will help it hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.

Making artisan no-knead bread is a relatively simple process that requires minimal effort and time. By following these tips, you can make delicious, fresh bread at home that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced baker, this recipe is a great way to try your hand at making your own bread.
