I want to be successful with the plain no-knead recipe first. I happened upon another blog on no-knead bread, and the blogger is using parchment paper to line her pot, she is using corningware too. It seems to me that glass cookware needs a different treatment than the enamel and cast iron pot, so it is interesting to hear of the different approaches. Here is a link and she has photos of all of the steps along the way - http://bestroominthehouse.wordpress.com/2007/12/31/how-to-make-no-knead-bread-in-photos/ I will keep you posted on my next experiment, (I haven't baked anything lately, been so busy) as well as the adventure into the sourdough version! ^ I just got some Oregon Trail Sourdough starter in the mail, haven’t gotten it going yet.

I used to bake bread a lot using the Tassajara bread book but it is a lot of work and I love sourdough bread so my plan is to get this recipe to work and then try it with sourdough starter. Thanks again, I will start another batch and try pre-heating the pyrex with the oil and flour. Love your site, love your recipes! Hi Sayward, thanks so much for the details and advice!

It's such a bummer! That's why I started oiling the pan. Now I actually give a spritz with the spray oil, and then follow with a dusting of flour. I've tried both cold and pre-heated bakeware. I've gotten both to work (with the oil) but have had much better success with the pre-heated, so now I pre-heat. I say give it a try - and let me know how it goes!

I did that and it rose and baked perfectly but I couldn't get it out of the corningware!! I sacrificed a good bit of the bottom crust to get it out. It tastes really good so I want to continue. I was searching for a different cooking dish online, but not finding what I really wanted (that I could afford that is) Then I remembered that we inherited a pyrex baking dish that is exactly like the one you have pictured. Yours is the only site that mentions putting oil in the baking dish and from your description it seems you do not pre-heat your pyrex, is that true? I really would like to be successful with this type of bread baking (I have done the old fashioned type and it is so time consuming) I am close, I tried the 5-minute bread recipe with minimal success, this one despite my fail with the bottom crust is nice and crusty with a nice crumb.

That's so great of you, I really appreciate it. And I'm so glad you like the blog! =) @ Sarah Jewel - Thanks for the heads up about the older Pyrex - I didn't know that! And yum! garlic and rosemary sounds good. The rosemary loaf was my favorite that I've made. Let me know how it turns out! @ Amber S. – No lady, thank YOU!
