    Okay, tried this recipe and compared it to my regular ciabatta requiring a biga (starter). The no knead is more bland in flavor. Definitely easier to make than regular kneaded ciabatta.

    Looks like we had the same idea at the same time. I started mine last night as well.

  • danzio56

    I started a batch tonight, will bake tomorrow afternoon. Looks great! I love the end of the video, he actually spreads butter on the warm bread….what a great idea. Whoda’ thunk it.

  • efarchery

    I have been making the bread for about 3 months now and it is great. the only thing I changed since I started ,is using 1/2 teaspoon of yeast.
    this is a great video and very easy to follow.
    I make a loaf every other day …
    I don’t have to drive an hour to The Bronx any more for good bread…

  • candygir7

    oh ye he has a pleasant voice. he speaks nice and steady and explains everything clearly. oh and he can bake too. yes that bread is delicious but it is Georgian bread which we have been making long before Italy even existed.

  • pestobrother

    We call it “codo’, which means elbow in Spanish.

  • myonlynick

    5 stars :)

    Great video! Thank you.

    I was wondering if the No-Knead Bread can be made into a long loaf baked uncovered without having to utilize a covered Dutch Oven.

    Yesterday, I bought my Dutch Oven and plan on making the bread the common way. Soon, I will try the Italian way.

    Best to all.

    Yummy, I like it.

  • AbstractMan23

    not so much the ingredients themselves but the timings which yield the characteristic open, bubbly crumb

    Hi,
    i don’t think so, i’ve never heard of it.
    real italian bakeries are very rare here, though italy is so close to germany…

    foreign style bread is usually made and sold by german bakers…and in german bakerys!

    take care!

    This bread is fantastic although I added a few tsps of good olive oil which made it a bit easier to handle (was sticking to glad wrap) also added to the already great flavor.

    Tried this last week for the first time. Taste was good and good crust, but it didn’t rise very much.

    Usually I make a “boule”–same recipe in a small dutch oven, and it rises okay, I think because it’s contained so has nowhere to go but up.

    This shape is easier to use for sandwiches etc, so would like to get it right. Not sure what the problem was.

  • collinf123

    Do you have panera bread in Germany Joe

  • Brandog132

    I don’t think you’ve tried REAL italian bread.

  • medceltic

    did it never happend, dough got fat again. 65 degrees is heat of oven man,

  • daFranch1se69

    Its not Italian Bread, its more Ciabatta like, which has a hard outer crust and soft inside dough.

  • daFranch1se69

    I used active yeast not the quick active yeast, and it worked just like chef john and this video.

    Well I made the bread for XMAS diner and it turned out delicious and as good as any bread I have eaten, I wouldn’t call it a Italian Bread as the outside crust is very hard and most italian breads I have eaten have soft outer crusts. As for this bread, its delicious, I love the freshness of the dough. Nothing is better than fresh baked dough. I will make this bread over and over again its easy!

  • TheStraightpride

    Maybe, but im not a fat illusional moron like you, and I dont try to teach things i dont know shit about. If you like to play movie star on youtube, please do so, but fuck my face and dont try to teach me about bread.
