Instead of the usual 3-hour breadathon, complete with kneading, you mix the ingredients together, then let them sit for 18 hours. Letting it sit that long lets the glutens attach nicely (which gives you airy bread) and you don&#8217;t have to knead it. Secondly, fancy-schmancy bakers have steam-injection ovens, which adds steam to the oven so the bread gets crispy on top. This is where the dutch oven comes in. The dough is extra wet, and you bake it inside the dutch oven. With the lid on, you effectively create a steam oven.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve found that the dutch oven is heavy, metal, and the lid has pointy bits. We recommend not putting it on your head.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/23527133@N00\/298331833\/\" title=\"Photo Sharing\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static.flickr.com\/112\/298331833_fe9bc04928_m.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" alt=\"IMG_8781.JPG\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/23527133@N00\/298331973\/\" title=\"Photo Sharing\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static.flickr.com\/102\/298331973_a254a8da5f_m.jpg\" width=\"180\" height=\"240\" alt=\"dutchead.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>P.S.
