No Knead Bread-Baguette
Description
No Knead Bread-Baguette begins with a simple dough combining all-purpose flour, yeast, salt, and lukewarm water. After mixing, the dough sits covered at room temperature for about 12 to 20 hours, during which bubbles form, indicating fermentation. The wet, sticky dough is generously floured to assist shaping into baguette forms. Scoring the tops allows controlled expansion during baking. The oven is preheated with a pan of boiling water on its lower rack to create steam, contributing to a crispy crust. This slow fermentation and steam baking result in baguettes with a chewy, moist crumb and a well-developed crust.
These baguettes suit sandwiches or as a table bread. The recipe can produce 2 to 3 loaves depending on shaping and size preference, offering flexibility for serving.

- 6 cups all-purpose flour (depending on a brand, you may need to add more flour)
- 3 cups water lukewarm
- 2 tsp yeast
- 2 tsp salt
Instructions
- The night before, combine all ingredients together. First mix the dry ingredients together and then add water. Mix the ingredients until the dough comes together. Cover it with a plastic wrap and let it sit for 12-20 hours on the countertop.
- The following day, the dough should be wet, sticky and bubbly. Generously flour your hands and the baking sheet.
- Take the dough (if it sticks, apply more flour to your hands) and form a baguette shape. You will easily get atleast 2-3 baguettes. For tips on shaping the dough, watch this tutorial. Place it on a baking sheet and sprinkle a generous amount of flour on it. Score the top with a sharp knife and cover it with a towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 450 °F. You will need to have 2 shelves in an oven. Fill a deep baking pan with 2 cups of hot boiled water, and place it on the lower rack, inside your oven. This will make the bread crispy on the outside. Place the bread on the middle rack. Remove water from the oven after 10 minutes. Keep on baking the bread for another 30 minutes or until golden crispy brown.
