NO-KNEAD CAST-IRON BREAD RECIPE
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and yeast. Pour in the lukewarm water and, using a wooden spoon, stir the mixture until it comes together into a sticky dough. If it isn’t sticky, add more water, a couple tablespoons at a time, to get there. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and keep in a draft-free place for 18 to 24 hours.
Lightly flour a work surface. Gently remove the dough from the bowl. Form the dough into a ball, gently tucking the sides of the dough under. Place the dough onto a large piece of parchment paper. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise for 1 to 2 hours, until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 475°F. Place a medium cast-iron cocotte into the oven while it preheats.
Carefully remove it from the oven when hot. Using the parchment paper sides as handles, gently lower the dough into the cocotte. Cover the cocotte, place it into the oven, and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and continue baking for another 20 to 30 minutes, until the bread is golden brown in color. Remove the bread from the cocotte and allow to cool for 1 hour before slicing and serving.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups bread flour, plus more for the work surface
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 1 1⁄3 cups lukewarm water, plus more as needed

- Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2025Size: 4-qtColor: TurquoiseVerified PurchaseThis is the best 4qt dutch oven. It resists chipping and scratching like crazy. It has been through some rough moments with little accidents with no harm done. I have other enameled cast iron cookware but I have to be extremely careful with when using them as they will chip easily with a good bang. Staub enameled cookware is a strudy and hardy product that can be used everyday and still look brand new. It is heavy but that is pretty standard with all cast iron products. I find that cleaning it is very easy with a soak and soft sponge. I use it for cooking and bread baking. It is a pretty color and it works very well. It is a pricey pot but worth every penny. If you time it well you can buy one deeply discounted. I could have paid 125$ more for the pot at it's regular price at Crate and Barrel or William Sonoma. I am thrilled with the pot and price point sale at Amazon. You can't go wrong with a Staub Dutch Oven. I am so happy with it my 4 qt that I am looking at finding a Turquoise Staub tall 5qt dutch oven as well. The search goes on.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2025Size: 4-qtColor: TurquoiseVerified PurchaseI needed a smaller Dutch oven that would fit in my new Breville oven, so I bought this four quart pan. I absolutely love this piece! I bought the Dutch oven in turquoise and was really surprised at how beautiful it is. This is my second cast iron pan from Staub and it won’t be my last. I have cooked some awesome dishes in this! The black non-stick surface works well to quickly brown food, creating flavor that can only be achieved with a fine pan. I plan to take good care of my Dutch oven by using silicone or wooden utensils only. There are plastic spacers that come with the pan that keep the top from moving around and chipping the surface. Even though you can technically put the pan in the dishwasher, I wash the pan by hand, to prevent rust, even though it probably would never rust because of the enamel coating. Clean up is easy because of the non-stick enamel surface. Staub is a great company that puts out a durable product and I truly believe that this Dutch oven will last a lifetime.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2024Size: 9-qtColor: GrenadineVerified PurchaseWe have the 9 quart. It is huge. Can't imagine where we would store the 13.25 quart version. This is a beautiful piece of kitchen ware and does a great job. I was a originally little skeptical about the interior coating, but it turned out to be easy to clean. I originally tried to save a few bucks and purchased a "used like new" offering and had to send it back as it arrived with a large crack through the side. I bit the $ bullet and ordered a new one. No regrets -- it's hard to accept that a piece of cookware could be this expensive but have come to accept that it is worth the price.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2025Size: 5-qt TallColor: BlackVerified PurchaseThis cast iron works fantastic. It lost almost zero liquid in 2 2/1 hours of cooking time. It has even heat distribution, and yes, it's rust-resistant. If you want quality, then it's certainly a good value for the money.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2022Size: 5-qt TallColor: BlackVerified PurchaseStaub is one of my favorite cookware brands. I like cast iron and have a lot of it including two enameled cast iron Dutch ovens from well known brands (but they were actually made in China). I inherited one of them from my Dad and purchased the other before I knew about French enameled cast iron cookware in general and Staub in particular. My Dad and I had the idea to compare the two brands and both seemed to be of good quality and they lasted for years, but they were far from perfect -- the enamel on one of them was easily chipped and the interior of the other one developed cracking and the surface started to flake off. In the intervening years, I discovered Staub and started building up a collection; the quality of the materials and workmanship is amazing. They are beautifully finished with several layers of gorgeous enamel (that resists chipping) and they are very heavy with a durable matte black interior. The lids are self-basting. They are pricey so I would usually purchase a different piece for the holidays each year. Sort of a gift to myself. I have two of the figural pieces (the tomato and the pumpkin -- so charming! but useful, too) the medium-sized coq-au-vin, a 3.75 quart French oven and three of the Dutch ovens (4 quart, 5.5 quart and 7 quart). I thought my collection was complete, although I wouldn't have minded if someone gifted me the cute artichoke figural piece). Anyway, I had been using my Dad's Dutch oven as a designated pot for making yogurt, cream of wheat and oatmeal when I noticed the flaking. I liked using it for this purpose because it was taller than my Staub Dutch ovens. I was so happy to see that Staub had introduced a tall version of the 5-quart Dutch oven, and I ordered it in the matte black. It looks great and It is perfect for so many things -- yogurt, of course but also soups and stews or baking bread. The size is versatile and it is just right for smaller families. The price was $199.99 when I purchased mine, and I thought that was a good deal. I have been looking for a Christmas gift for my SIL (a great cook) and I see they are now only $149.99! I also see there are great new colors available, too! This Dutch oven is definitely worth the price as Staub enameled cast iron is gorgeously finished, well-made, robust and durable + everything I make in these pots come out flavorful and delicious. It is 10 times better than the less expensive enameled cast iron I previously used. My older ones still look brand new. I know I will be passing all of my beautiful Staub pieces down to my children and grandchildren someday and I'm sure they will enjoy them using them for years, too.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2025Size: 5.5-qtColor: Dark BlueVerified PurchaseThe pot is beautiful as are Staub pots;, and it seems without flaws- only the inside of the hands is rough, missing the usual finish as is on my other Staub pieces. So I expect that is what makes it a second, yet it is clearly a second as is indicated on the Staub box and sticker on the pot that declares it is "B" quality. This should be mentioned in the description. Shipper did sent it promptly yet full disclosure needs to be made on their offerings.
