    I make lots of different types of bread, but this no-knead bread is really easy when you haven't got much time and I end up making it about twice a week. To make it even easier, I found that you can skip stage 2 completely, I just turn out the dough on a well floured surface, then add as much extra flour and cereal grain/seed bits as I need, shape the dough into a ball and put it straight into the pot and let it rise in that. You don't need to heat the pot either, just put it straight in the pot, leave it 2 hours. Just pre-heat the oven after 1.5 hours. It works well as wholemeal too.
    I tried the no-knead bread today and followed FemmeAuFoyer's suggestion of putting it straight in the pot for the second rising. It rose okay but when it cooked it stuck so hard to the pot I had to tear it up to get it out. Does anyone have any ideas as to why it stuck? Did it need a thicker coating of flour do you think? I didn't grease the pot at all, was I supposed to?
