		<description>8825
It's pay-back time!  I believe I have some worthwhile modifications to the wonderful original no-knead bread recipe and approach.
This version is so good that after giving a few slices to friends, more than one has sheepishly confessed to not sharing with their spouses, all was eaten before the return of their mates!
		
6 C ‘better for bread’ flour (may use 2 C whole wheat, and or 1 C Rye to make 6 C)
1 1/2 T Sugar (I prefer brown)
1 T Salt
1/2 tsp yeast (original recipe calls for Instant, I found - contrary to multiple blogs - Active Dry works just fine; I suspect any yeast would work!!)
Optional 1/4-1/2 C Onion Chips
Optional 1/2 - 3/4 C Multi (7, 9, or 12) Grain Cereal 
I use a large Tupperware cake holder/transporter and mix the dry ingredients using the cover as a bowl,  just close the lid (actually the base of the cake transporter) and shake the contents thoroughly.  
I also normally use about 1/2C of SourDough (Rye based, started from grapes years ago (bacteria on the skins of non-sprayed fruit), quite tangy!)
Add 2 3/4 C water (adjust a bit for how much chips and cereals used) and with a strong wooden spoon mix well.  I like to keep the dough on the dry side.
Optional sometimes I add 1/2C of pesto

Any combination - including any or all of the optionals - results in great flavors
Rising at a cool temperature (50-70F) (right in the closed cake transporter - its base is used as a well sealing lid) for about 20 hours really brings out the flavors.  Same wooden spoon is then used to fold the outside of the dough into center - if you're talented you can balance the dough mass on the spoon and flop it upside down back into the 'bowl' for another 4 hours of second rising.  I preheat to 400 F with a very small (2 qt) Le Crueset-like pot (mine is actually a Belgium made Descoware pot) which just fits into our toaster oven (I actually had to grind down the lid's handle by about 1/4").  When the air conditioner is fighting the heat given off by our regular oven, I bake in the toaster oven outside the house.  When using the regular oven I use a 51/2 qt.  Circulon pot; the foil protection (see below) is not needed in the regular oven.

I then take the preheated pot out of the toaster oven, close its door and working rapidly flop the dough into the pot - same back into the oven which will be re-set to 375F (convection) for 35 min.  I find working in the open rather than in the confines of the oven (even when I use a regular oven) is far safer from a burn perspective.   I open to take the Descoware's lid off and reset for 375F and 35 min again.  About 15 min into the lid-off portion of the bake I place a tin foil over the pot to prevent burning the top of the bread - it's really close (&#60; 1") to the heating elements.  I leave the bread in the cooling oven (door still closed) for another 15 min before shaking unto a cooling rack.  Wait one hour before slicing, then spread with unsalted butter and love life!  
My loaves typically weigh 3 1/4 lbs.</description>

		<description>I've made this recipe dozens of times and let me tell you it is idiot proof.  In fact, I have stopped doing the 2 hour rising time completely and the results are STILL wonderful.  The cooking vessel I use is Target's ChefMate cast iron 5 quart kettle ($26 approx).  I follow the recipe as far as ingredients, mixing, covering with plastic, letting sit 16 hours or so, then I dump it out onto a dusted cutting board while the oven and kettle are heating up for 30 mins, fold it over a few times, dust with flour, cover with plastiv wrap again then when oven is ready just dump it into the pan, cook for 30 mins, take the lid off, 15 mins more and it is perfect every time.  Enjoy!</description>

		<description>Hi,

One slight fix you might make: it should be much-vaunted (vaunted:praised boastfully or excessively) not much-vaulted (vaulted:having a hemispherical vault or dome).</description>
