Ingredients:

How To Make Brilliant No-Knead Bread
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, yeast, and salt until well combined.
Add Warm Water
Pour in warm water and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms. The dough will be sticky and uneven—this is normal!
Cover and Let It Rise
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let the dough rise at room temperature for 12-18 hours.
Shape the Dough
The dough should double in size and have a bubbly surface.
Lightly flour a surface and gently shape the dough into a round loaf.
Avoid overhandling—just form it into a rough ball.
Preheat the Dutch Oven
Place a Dutch oven with a lid in your oven and preheat to 450°F (232°C) for 30 minutes.
This step helps create a crispy, golden crust.
