No-Knead Bread: The Lost Recipe

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

This rustic no-knead bread relies on a long overnight rise to develop flavor and texture, so you'll be mixing ingredients and letting time do most of the work. Shaping and baking happen the next day with a hot cast-iron pot creating a beautiful, crusty loaf in about 50 minutes total.

  1. 1/3

    Mix the ingredients

    Combine all the dry ingredients, add the water, and stir well. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 12–18 hours.

  2. 2/3

    Shape the loaf

    Turn the dough out of the bowl onto a floured surface and fold it over on itself a few times from the sides. Dust with flour and let it rest briefly. Then shape it into a loaf and let it rise for another hour. Preheat the oven to 200°C, with a cast-iron pot inside to heat up as well.

  3. 3/3

    Bake

    Transfer the loaf into the hot pot and bake covered with the lid for 30 minutes. Then remove the lid and bake for another 20 minutes.

About this recipe

This is one of the oldest recipes on our blog — and you've just found it. Some little gremlin had tucked it away somewhere, and it never even occurred to us to go looking for it. It probably got misplaced when we revamped the site. Either way, this is one of the best loaves Lenka ever posted on her blog. It was a huge hit back then, so we're bringing it here too.
