This "no-knead" bread that you will definitely need! This dough couldn't be any more simple in that it's just mix, proof, and bake. Sometimes it's the simplest things that taste the best!
*Chef Note*
**You trade the no kneading for a much longer proofing time; 10-12 hrs.

Mix the dough right before you go to bed. That way all the proofing happens while you sleep, and when you bake it in the morning it will leave your house smelling like fresh baked bread for the rest of the day! ^_^
In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients.
Slowly add wet ingredients. Stirring with a wooden spoon. The dough will be very wet and sticky, you may even need to get in there with your hands.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in a warm spot for 10-12 hours. The dough will double in size.
Lightly dust your work space with flour. Scrape the dough out of the bowl and fold a few times to give the dough structure. Remember this is a "no-knead" bread so really your just folding it over itself a few time. Try to avoid too much stretching.
Brush a piece of parchment paper with oil. Put the dough on the paper, seam side down, and cover with a damp paper towel.
Let the dough rise for 1 hour. Check out the next two steps!
Set the oven to 500º.
30 minutes before it goes in the oven, put a large oven safe dutch oven with the lid on to heat it up.
With a sharp knife, score the top of the dough. This will help to let the bread expand while baking.
Lower the temperature to 425º.
Carefully remove the HOT dutch oven from the oven. Lower the parchment paper and bread into the dutch oven. Bake for 30 minutes WITH THE LID ON.
Remove the lid and bake for another 15 minutes.
Remove from dutch oven and transfer to a cooling rack.
ENJOY!!
Fresh rosemary is a must! The dried stuff just doesn't pack enough punch.
If you want to use active dry yeast, mix the yeast with the water and let it rest for 10 minutes before pouring it in so it can bloom. Don't forget to add the oil separately.
A spoon is suggested, because the dough mixes quickly and can gum up the blender.
Spray your spoon/hand with a little bit of PAM to keep the dough from sticking.
If the dough seems too dry after mixing, add 1 Tbsp of water at a time.
