Best No Knead Unleavened Bread Wrap Able Version Recipes

(NO-KNEAD) UNLEAVENED BREAD, (WRAP-ABLE VERSION)

Steps:

• 1. In a large mixing bowl, mix dry ingredients with a whisk.
• 2. Take your warm-to-hot water off the stove. While scraping the sides of the bowl, pour 1/3 cup warm water into the flour at a time and mix until a faintly sticky dough ball is formed. Use all the water. Note: If the dough is a bit dry, pound a little until the moist is evenly incorporated throughout. If the dough is too wet, make efforts to incorporate all of the flour that's in the bowl, pounding it into the dough.
• 3. Cover the dough with a clean cloth for 5 minutes (or keep up to 24 hours!) to let it rest.
• 4. Take the cloth off your bowl & remove the dough. Place dough onto a clean countertop. Note: The dough will be sticking to the bottom of the bowl as you lift it out, and the top of the dough might be dry. Briefly rework the dough again so the moist is evenly incorporated throughout.
• 5. Divide the dough using a knife. Make sure each dough ball is equal to 4 TBSP (or a medium ball size). I gathered 12 dough balls. Note: Cover the pieces of dough with a wet paper towel so it doesn't dry out.
• 6. Using a rolling pin, roll out each dough ball until it's little less than 1/4 inch thick. Size may vary but dough's rough dimensions spread out by 7x8 inches. Note: Roll it out under 1/4 inch thick but not under 2mm, this recipe's ingredient ratio isn't suited to make unleavened bread crackers. You should be able to easily lift this dough without ripping it.
• 7. On stovetop, pre-heat a large non-stick skillet or pan over medium heat (Stovetop Settings: 5 or 4). Note: Do not cook over the lowest setting.
• 8. Once the non-stick pan is pre-heated and quite hot, place a flatbread or multiple flatbreads onto the surface using a spatula, ensuring they do not overlap. Let it cook for 1-minute, 45 seconds OR until brown marks begin to appear. Flip to the other side & cook for another 45 seconds. Use the spatula to hold down the flatbread when it rises so the flatbread cooks evenly but doesn't burn. Note: It's not necessary nor recommended to use oil or butter.
• 9. Flatbreads are ready when both sides appear to have light to medium brown spots & the bread is no longer see-through. Remove from stove-top and wrap the flatbread in a reusable cloth or paper towel before storing inside a ziplock or container.
• 10. STORING: When properly clothed inside a container, your Unleavened Bread will stay fresh & pliable up to 12 days. Freeze your Unleavened Bread inside of a ziplock bag with a cloth for up to 1 month. Note: Additionally, just like regular bread, uncovered Unleavened Bread may be left outside for up to 5 hours before it begins to stale.

(NO-KNEAD) UNLEAVENED BREAD, (CRACKER VERSION)

Steps:

• 1. In a glass measuring cup, measure the flour. The glass measuring cup will be the mixing bowl.
• 2. Add water to the flour in parts, (as this ensures all the flour is being evenly coated), then use the handle of a spoon to stir. Use all the water. Note: The dough will appear flaky (right picture). Picture on the right is there for reference, don't take the dough out of the bowl.
• 3. Add all the olive oil, then use the handle of a spoon to stir the dough. Using clean hands, squeeze tightly until an oily dough ball is formed. Note: The dough will be oily (right picture). Picture on the right is there for reference, don't take the dough out of the bowl.
• 4. Rest the dough for 10 minutes, covered with a clean wet paper towel, or clean cloth. Note: Additionally, you may place it in a clean ziplock and store it in the fridge for up to 8 hours.
• 5. Remove the rested dough from its container onto a clean counter. Rework the dough's oils until they're evenly distributed & the surface is smooth and elastic.
• 6. Divide the dough into 3 parts using a sharp knife. Note: Cover with a wet paper towel so the dough balls don't dry out.
• 7. PREPARATION: place a rack at the top of your oven & place another rack in the bottom of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 Degrees. Preheat the baking pan in the oven.
• 8. Using a rolling pin, thinly roll out all the dough balls. Roll it out as thin as you can, until the surface underneath shows through the dough. Cut the dough into 6x6 square shapes.
• 9. Place the dough on parchment paper. Generously sprinkle rock salt, distributing evenly with a clean hand. Using a rolling pin, lightly roll in the salt. Poke holes through the dough using a chopstick, to let the steam release.
• 10. Transfer the dough and parchment paper to the surface of the inverted preheated pan.
• 11. COOKING TIME: Place tray onto the bottom oven rack & bake for 5 minutes (or until the edges turn light gold & bubbles form). Then, transfer tray to the top rack & bake for another 3 minutes (OR until light gold & crispy throughout).
• 12. Remove the cracker(s) from the oven using tonsils or spatula and let cool. STORING: you may store in a ziplock container for up to 1 month & it will still be crispy!

UPDATED NO-KNEAD BREAD

Steps:

• Mix the dough: Combine the flour, salt and yeast in a large bowl and mix with your hands until mostly homogenous. Combine the water and vinegar or lemon juice, then add to the bowl. Form one hand into a stiff claw, and stir with it until no dry flour remains and the dough forms a sticky, shaggy ball. Roll the ball around the bowl until most of the dough is part of the same large mass. The mixing process should take no more than 30 to 45 seconds.
• Scrape your dough-covered hand with your clean hand or with a metal or plastic dough scraper to get most of the dough into the bowl, then invert a tall-sided medium metal or glass bowl (or a cutting board) and place it on top of the large bowl, tapping it to ensure a tight seal. Let dough rest at least 12 hours and up to 18 hours at room temperature, 60 to 70 degrees. When the dough is done resting, it should appear very bubbly and wet.
• Shape the loaf: Wipe out any moisture collected inside the medium bowl. Dust a dish towel thoroughly on one side with rice flour or bread flour, then line the medium bowl with the towel, floured-side up. Generously flour your work surface. Sprinkle flour around the edges of the dough in the large bowl, then tilt the bowl over your floured work surface, using your fingertips to ease the dough away from the bowl until it all tips out. (Some bits of the dough will stick to the bowl, this is OK; leave them behind.)
• Working gently but quickly to avoid deflating the dough, using one hand, reach under one side with your fingertips, stretch the dough, and fold it over itself into the center. Repeat three more times until each side of the dough has been folded over the top. Using the sides of your hands instead of your fingertips and as much extra flour as necessary to prevent sticking, flip the dough over. With your palms up and hands placed flat on the work surface, gently tuck the dough together underneath until the top surface is relatively smooth and taut.
• Proof the loaf: Carefully lift the dough, place it smooth-side up into the towel-lined bowl, and dust lightly with rice flour or bread flour. Cover the bowl with a large baking sheet and allow the dough ball to rise until it roughly doubles in volume and doesn't spring back readily when you poke it with a fingertip, about 2 hours. Meanwhile, wash out the large bowl and have it ready.
• Heat the oven: At least 30 minutes before baking, adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 500 degrees. When dough is ready, invert the bowl and baking sheet so that the dough is lying on the sheet. (The sheet will end up inverted.) Lift off the bowl and carefully lift off the kitchen towel. If it sticks at all, be very gentle when coaxing the dough off; the goal is to minimize the loss of gases trapped inside.
• Bake the bread: Splash some water inside the larger metal bowl, then invert it onto the baking sheet over the dough. Transfer the whole thing to the oven, reduce oven temperature to 450 degrees, and bake for 25 minutes. Using oven mitts or dry kitchen towels, remove the bowl and continue baking until the loaf is as dark as you'd like it, 15 to 25 minutes longer. Remove the bread, transfer to a cooling rack, and allow to cool completely before cutting it open.

NO-KNEAD BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine flour, yeast and salt. Add 1 1/2 cups/345 grams water and stir until blended; dough will be shaggy and sticky. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rest at least 12 hours, preferably about 18, at warm room temperature, about 70 degrees.
• Dough is ready when its surface is dotted with bubbles. Lightly flour a work surface and place dough on it; sprinkle it with a little more flour and fold it over on itself once or twice. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rest about 15 minutes.
• Using just enough flour to keep dough from sticking to work surface or to your fingers, gently and quickly shape dough into a ball. Generously coat a cotton towel (not terry cloth) with flour, wheat bran or cornmeal; put dough seam side down on towel and dust with more flour, bran or cornmeal. Cover with another cotton towel and let rise for about 2 hours. When it is ready, dough will be more than double in size and will not readily spring back when poked with a finger.
• At least a half-hour before dough is ready, heat oven to 450 degrees. Put a 6- to 8-quart heavy covered pot (cast iron, enamel, Pyrex or ceramic) in oven as it heats. When dough is ready, carefully remove pot from oven. Slide your hand under towel and turn dough over into pot, seam side up; it may look like a mess, but that is OK. Shake pan once or twice if dough is unevenly distributed; it will straighten out as it bakes. Cover with lid and bake 30 minutes, then remove lid and bake another 15 to 30 minutes, until loaf is beautifully browned. Cool on a rack.
