This has been my best and easiest bread bake so far.
Super easy, super soft and super spongy.
This no knead bread requires least of your energy and attention.
This is what you need:

Cup Size used
|
200ml

|
Preparation/Proofing time
|
4 hrs
|
|
Cook time
|
40 minutes

Ingredients:
3 cups flour
( i used 2 cups wheat flour and 1 cup all purpose flour. You may
make it 50:50 too)
2 tsp active dry yeast
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp sugar
Oil as needed.
2 1/2 cup warm water
1 Egg yolk for egg wash
How to prepare
dough:
1.
Preheat the oven at 185°c.
2.
In a bowl combine flour , yeast, sugar and
salt. Give it a nice mix.
3.
Add water and mix again with a wooden spoon or
ladle.
4.
Add 2 tbsp oil and fold the dough. The dough
at this stage is very sticky and loose. Don't worry but we need this much
moisture in the flour at this stage.
5.
Let it rest covered at a warm place for at
least 4-5 hours.( i covered it with a blanket and kept it in the cupboard for a
good rise Delhi is very cold right now so it took 5 hours otherwise it should
be done in an hour early.)
6.
After 5 hrs. the dough has should have risen
nicely and doubled in size. It still is quite sticky and you'll need to dust
your hands with flour to bring it together.
7.
At this stage put 1 tbsp. oil and a bit of
flour to bring it together and make it into a sticky ball. Remember don't over
flour as it'll make the dough dense and kill the moisture. Grease your 8″*5″
loaf pan with oil and transfer the dough into it and let it rest again covered
with a kitchen towel for a second proofing for half an hour( in winters it may
take 45 minutes) or till it rises a little above the edge of the pan.
8.
Just before baking egg wash the dough with one
egg yolk mixed with a little water.
9.
Bake @185° c for 40 min or till done. As per
your ovens working.Apply butter on top as soon as you take it out and let it
cool completely.
10.
Slice it and enjoy the easiest n softest wheat
bread…..!!!
