Everybody is doing it and as the ordinary sheep I am it was very likely I'd be jumping on the wagon as well and try the no knead bread. Found this link via angry chicken and know I am not the last who has not made such a bread yet. So if you are one of the other three girls who have not, do now, it's as good as they say. I'm thrilled. The taste is great. So little yeast and so much time you're giving the dough to mature really do this bread well.
Edit: I reduced the salt to less than two teaspoons.
I must admit mine got a little dark but given the amazing one inch distance between the top of the finished bread and the heating coil in my tiny oven I am quite happy with that, could be worse. Baking something "normally" sized in a Japanese sized oven is always a challenge.

Apparently we had a baking theme going on here yesterday and watched this Apple Spice Cake clip on Martha Stewart. You know, we don't have a TV and are not used to watch cooking shows and this clip has been the first time Dagny ever saw something like it on a screen. She was highly entertained. The thing which got her utmost attention was the mixer... enthusiastically she asked me with big eyes what this thing was.
That was so funny. I hadn't thought of how much it is me who is responsible for how this girl's little world is constructed. So far she thought a dough is mixed with a simple whisk.
I wonder, do you all have such highly developed mixers? Or is there anybody else who is still on a hands, whisk and wooden spoon level?
Thanks for your tutowlrial love!
I already saw an offspring here, isn't he cute?
The weekend was a bit chilly hence the cherries will need some more time, only a few blossoms yet.
Happy Tuesday everybody!
