Thank you PJ for the lack of acknowledgement. I truly do not believe that the recipe "popped up " like a mushroom after a long and heavy rainfall, but rather the process has been oft overlooked due to our mental programming. We are alas all children of the post Industrial Age! I came up with this method and it was named "noknead" by Mark Bittman NYT columnist in 2006. You see PJ the method for making bread is arguably the oldest and might explain why humans and breadmeking became so wide spread some 6000 plus years ago. Anyhow if any of your readers wish to know I've a new book on the subject that will be published in November through Norton titled "The Sullivan Street Bakery cookbook" and in this book the emphasis is the use of natural leavening (sourdough) applied to making "no knead breads" I truly believe your readers will love it. I also have a couple of suggestions regarding the recipes you published that your readers may find helpful. Loaves and quiches Jim
