I tried no-knead bread about 2 years ago and was not at all impressed. Yesterday I made up a batch following your instructions, and this afternoon I baked my first loaf. I am seriously happy with the outcome, although my loaf seems a little small.
I am living in Germany, so have no IDEA what KAF is... I used standard bread flour. It is also only possible to buy small packets of instant yeast here... I have had many problems with my baking here, the baking powder is not the same strength I am used to. My question is (now that I have finished waffling on) - Does anyone know what would be the correct substitute over here for KAF? Is AP Flour, just the ordinary cake flour that we buy here?
In recipes calling for KAF All-Purpose, Type 550 would be the closest match. Frank @ KAF.
