-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/4 cups warm water -- 85F - 95F
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
3 1/2 cups bread flour -- (416 g)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt -- table salt grind
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary -- chopped, divided
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1/2 tablespoon fresh oregano -- chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
A no-knead loaf baked in a slow cooker. This bread is soft and
doughy, more like a roll in texture than a crunchy baguette. Be
careful when removing the bread - the cooker will get hotter than
usual since there is no water in the cooker. We made this in a
4-quart cooker (8 3/4" diameter x 4 1/4" high). The loaf nearly
filled it - 7 1/2" diameter x 3 1/4" high. We used finely ground salt
in the dough and coarsely ground kosher salt to sprinkle on the top.
In the bowl of an electric mixer (or a large bowl), combine water,
yeast, and sugar. Let sit until mixture is bubbly, about 5 minutes.
Add 1/2 tsp of salt, 1 1/2 Tbsp of the rosemary, thyme, oregano,
olive oil, and flour. Using the dough hook, mix on medium speed for 5
to 6 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic. (The dough can
also be kneaded by hand.)
Line the slow cooker insert with two pieces of parchment paper. Use
enough to cover the sides of the inserts. Shape dough into a loaf and
place in the cooker. Sprinkle the top with the remaining salt and rosemary.
Drape a paper towel over the top of the cooker to catch water drops.
Put the lid on and weight it down if necessary.
Cook on high for 2 hours, until bottom of bread is browned and
completely cooked. (I used an instant read thermometer and measured
190F at the top and 200F at the bottom of the loaf.) Remove from slow
cooker and place under broiler for 2 to 3 minutes to crisp the crust
if desired. Cool on a rack.
