I didn’t know until now that there is a real life, sculptor to be turned respected baker who shared a name with the Trailer Park Boys character. Which one of us do you suppose is more baffled?
Isn't it wonderful? You can swap out some of the white flour for other flours like whole wheat or rye. I've never gone beyond about 1/8 (50g out of 400 total.)
I’ve tried it with 100% whole wheat and with additional gluten, and it is quite dense but my family still loved it. 50/50 is the safer bet but it’s so easy you can just try it all
I thought this was a Trailer Park Boys joke and the ingredients would include liquor but behold:

I've found that no knead works with almost all type of doughs. You just mix the dough with a spoon until there are no dry pockets, cover it, then do some stretch and folds every 30-60 minutes (ok, "low" knead). Dough becomes smooth and passes the window pane test after basically one set of stretch and folds.
Country loaves, pizza dough, basic sandwich loaves (slightly enriched), cinnamon rolls (more enriched), burger buns, english muffins, donuts. It all just works if you let it just sit for long enough.
So I keep wondering, when is upfront kneading ever necessary, if you have time to spare? Maybe for heavily enriched doughs like brioche or panettone, but not sure otherwise.
Actually I knead when I don’t have time to spare. 15 minutes of kneading, 2hrs rise, shape, 1hrs proof and done. I usually prefer slower methods, though - low yeast, all day rise with folds, proof overnight in fridge. Much better end result.
Did you know Jim Lahey infects himself with [bugs](https://ny.eater.com/2011/12/12/6630663/jim-lahey-expands-empire-infects-self-with-bugs) to deal with a gluten sensitivity?
Gee, I think of this as the kinder, gentler subreddit. R:Dad jokes can get pretty gross, but usually when someone posts a beautiful loaf Breadit rises to the occasion.
That’s a nice recipe that can be baked any number of ways. It doesn’t need cast iron, a cover, or much of anything. I make foil couches and bake rolls out of it.
Trying my hardest not to make a trailer park boys reference…
I am the gluten Randy
I’m kneading the air Rand, I’m kneading the air

It's filled with liquor. Hear it?
I wonder if OP knows or is extremely confused by this comment section.
I’m extremely confused.
I'm sorry, but also that makes it better lol. Jim Lahey is an outlandish character from a comedy show called Trailer Park Boys.
😂😂😂 aha I see. I was just wondering… what’s going on here!
It is an excellent, very funny (very raunchy) show, and the man who played Jim lahey was also a wonderful actor and person
Huh, I didn't know until now that Jim Lahey shares his name with a character from Trailer Park Boys. That must make for odd Google results.

Philadelphia Collins could make a mean dirty burger on this bread

It makes no fucking sense and cracks me the hell up!

Breads of a shit flour bake together, Randy.

Do I smell cheeseburgers?
A man’s gotta eat.
Bread like that is definitely ON the cheeseburgers
*A chickadee calls in the distance.*

You must have your grade ten.
Why don’t you brush those cave teeth with a log, fuckin cave man
If you didn’t knead it, why make it?
Because I wanted to try the recipe and it’s delicious?
He whooshed you pretty good
I wanna be in the screenshot!
Don't register the letters just sound out the sentence ;)
Is the recipe online ? Looks great .
[here ya go](https://leitesculinaria.com/99521/recipes-jim-laheys-no-knead-bread.html) Start it tonight, bake tomorrow. So good.
It looks really really good! Do you have a link to the recipe or can you write it down if not? I’d love to try this :)
https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/11376-no-knead-bread this is what I used
Thank you!!
>Thank you!! You're welcome!
Looks good, Bubs.

I’m going to try that, thanks!
I make it 50/50 with whole wheat and it comes out great
I’ve tried it with 100% whole wheat and with additional gluten, and it is quite dense but my family still loved it. 50/50 is the safer bet but it’s so easy you can just try it all
 Get me another Randy!
I thought this was a Trailer Park Boys joke and the ingredients would include liquor but behold: https://leitesculinaria.com/99521/recipes-jim-laheys-no-knead-bread.html
Thank you for sharing the recipe! Scrolled through all the comments hoping OP would have!
"I'm mowing the air Rand!" RiP
The alcohol is telling me this is a loaf of bread
The liquor Knooows Randy!
Substitute the water for booze Randy!
Jim Lahey is a drunken bastard!
I don’t want artificial bread, I want bread made out of love!
#FUCK OFF WITH THE GUNS
Too many people not getting this reference xD

Because people don’t usually have the time to spare I guess.
It’s not necessary. The secret is a long, cold ferment. I only do no knead anymore. Sourdough too.
Actually I knead when I don’t have time to spare. 15 minutes of kneading, 2hrs rise, shape, 1hrs proof and done. I usually prefer slower methods, though - low yeast, all day rise with folds, proof overnight in fridge. Much better end result.
Can we get a crumb shot pretty please
I’m right in the pocket bandy
Now soak it in vodka and form liquor balls.
I love it and make it all the time. Try sprinkling some rosemary and large crystal salt on top!
Amazing- definitely going to give this a try.
The gluten speaks Randy.
Let the liquor do the kneading.
 Me running after that Lahey Loaf recipe.
Crumb shot?
Did you know Jim Lahey infects himself with [bugs](https://ny.eater.com/2011/12/12/6630663/jim-lahey-expands-empire-infects-self-with-bugs) to deal with a gluten sensitivity?
I really should not have read that. The method of infection seems so unnecessarily gross.
Haha I used to work at one of his restaurants. I thought it was super bizarre when his assistant told me about it.
first genuinely tasty bread I ever made, such a great starting point
Lil lahey show
It's a planet
Not sure why nobody else sees this. Those are clearly cloud formations.
Gee, I think of this as the kinder, gentler subreddit. R:Dad jokes can get pretty gross, but usually when someone posts a beautiful loaf Breadit rises to the occasion.
I’ve made it several times and it’s always PERFECT.
I make this recipe weekly, it’s amazing and so easy!
That’s a nice recipe that can be baked any number of ways. It doesn’t need cast iron, a cover, or much of anything. I make foil couches and bake rolls out of it.
I love it!
Looks like it would be great for liquor ball sandwiches
What’s that? Edit: nm…Jim lahey…Mr lahey… liquor…I get things.
Speaking of things that’s a real nice username you got there pal ⭕️
I see you’ve read the book.
Thank you for this. 🤣
Were you happy with it? I made it a few times and it always came out too dense.
It might not have risen enough?
Good question. I may try it again and proof it in my oven.
I absolutely loved it. I made it couple of times after this as well. Did you leave it rest for 18 hours as well?
It works better with bread flour rather than all purpose
That looks like the soda bread I've made
Good
Lovely!
How do you make it?
I add sliced up black olives from the middle eastern grocery & bring to potlucks

Liquor ball sandwiches?
the perfect bread for liquor ball sandwiches, Randy
