I was skeptical of this method. I tried it and OMG! It works. It really, really works. I made the dough last night, and brought it to church pot luck. It was a hit! This kid says it's even better than the bread his mom buys from the store. Thank you for sharing this recipe and the "no Knead" ," no need" for mixers and gadgets. The easiest bread I ever made.
I love to eat baguettes and always wish that I can make them. I just finished baking them today. It turned out delicious and just like the French bakery. Your instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Thank you, Steve for the recipe.
Steve, This is such an awesome method. You have turned breadmaking from an arduous chore (due to the kneading) into an absolute joy! It is so easy I have my 9-yr-old making bread weekly. Thanks you so much!
Wow! I just baked my first batch for my hubby and I, and it is Frenchman approved! A great taste, flavor, and crunch! I cant believe how little yeast and effort was put into such a delicious baguette. Thank you for sharing, I look forward to trying out your other recipes.
Hi Steve, I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for your videos. I discovered this method of bread baking from your clips here on youtube. I used to make a different type of "no-knead" bread, which you in fact had to knead. I now make the most amazing breads thanks to you! I really appreciate your nice clear way of explaining each step. I have always loved making bread but now it is even more enjoyable. Thank you again and look forward to more of your videos in future.
Hey Steve and I hope you and yours are well. I’ve been making your bread for years and I’m very grateful to you for teaching me. As a side note, I love the comment that you made about living in a new world and we should embrace new ideas… as long as the goal is achieved… thanks again!
MUY BUENO! Very good! Love this bread and for me that’s good because I am picky. Love just the instructions clear and right to the point. Gracias.... thank you 😊 Steve
Steve your knowledge and techniques of bread making are awesome. For those of us that are beginners, you help us find comfort in a new endeavor. Thank you so very much for sharing. Have a blessed day. Alabama
Steve it's almost 1 am and your recipe looked so easy, I had to add it to the other 2 I have on the counter proofing now. A 3 day proof of a rye, a No-Knead Sourdough with Olives and Rosemary, and now these baguettes. My oven will be busy tomorrow! Thanks so much, looking forward to a fresh roll for my sandwich at lunch.
Steve I have watched so many videos andby far I have making so delicious bread I've ever tasted you are the man out of all the videos I've watched thank you very much Steve you're the bomb
Hey Mr. Steve! I'm not sure if you'll see this comment, but I just made these baguettes today. I made mine a little wider and shorter to make them look like the loaves of bread from a video game I like, Skyrim. I brushed the tops with a little butter and honey as soon as they came out of the oven and they were lovely. I've never been successful with baking from scratch before, but I am so proud of these. Thank you so much!
Three years later and I am still not buying bread. Your recipes are awesome! Now that we live rural and with the virus still with our country, these recipes are such a blessing!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Blessings! 💕
I know this is an old recipe but Holy Cow. Just made this to serve with tortellini tonight. In a word YUMMY! I have made several of your breads and they are all fabulous. They turn out every time. I have even started a loaf of herb parmesan bread dough in the evening and traveled with it to our vacation house the next day just to have it right away!!! I haven’t bought a loaf of bread in months! I make at least 2-3 loaves a week. Pizza dough and cinnamon rolls are fab too!! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this recipe and easy to follow video. Its always a bit hit and miss for me when making bread but these baguettes turned out great and tasted amazing 😊
tried your recipe for the 1st time, and I have to say. it was really , really good. I cannot find any decent breads where I live and this recipe is a game changer. I still have to tweak a couple things, and I think my oven needs to be hotter than 450 or keep the bread in for longer than 15 mins, but the baguettes came out a little chewy and airy and tasted great! Thank you for your easy to follow, thorough video
It never ceases to amaze me. I watch the videos you make, I follow the directions to a T, and when it comes to forming (about 5:39 here) my dough it really wet, sticks to my hands ina gloppy mess, and is impossible to form. It is not dry like yours, it is not soft looking like yours and it is more than the added humidity or moisture in the air.
Some of the older videos were made before I developed a technique I call “roll-to-coat” where I dust the dough with flour in the bowl… it makes it easier to handle and shape. You may want to check my website (nokneadbreadcentral.com) and watch a newer video... No-Knead American Baguettes (updated). Steve
If you have any difficulty shaping your dough, let the dough rest for 15 minutes. The yeast will go to work and soften the dough making it easier to work. Steve
I use a round pizza stone and it works too. My baguettes came out with thin crispy crust and soft and chewy on the inside. Had to bake for 30 minutes and turn them over to bake the underside for a crispy crust all round. Thanks for the detailed instructions, Steve.
Hi Susie, Did it double in size during the first rise? If not... check your yeast. It usually isn’t the oven. When you combined the ingredients... the dough should have been very wet. After 8 hours the dough should have doubled or tripled in size. After folding and shaping (which reduced the size) the dough should double in size again... and you should get oven bounce during baking. Steve
I watched this video last night and made some today. OMG! This was the best no-knead bread ever! I'm very impressed with this recipe and it's so easy! So glad I found your video on this... now I'm looking forward to making those pretzels you posted. :) Thank you for posting this video! Now I don't have to buy the store bought crusty breads... Thanks! :)
Well it's today 11-20-2016 and your informative and complete instructions made me the hit of the evening. Fresh banquettes with vegan chill. A meal to die for. Thank You!!
Hi. Me a vegan and want to know if we can skip the egg wash? Steve, great explanation and gorgeous looking breads. But request you to reply us too. Thanks in advance.
@@hemasubramanian1338 Egg isn't needed to bake bread. You can simply put a bowl with water in your oven when you turn it on : the steam will settle on the dough, delay the crust formation and allow a better spreading. It will also make the crust more glossy and crusty. Remove the water bowl when your bread start to brown, and let the bread cooking finish.
This turned out beautifully, with splendid crumb! Rather than four 8" loaves, I was able to get two 16" batards because I have a particularly roomy sheetpan (with a heat sink on the bottom). Note to others - this is an artisan bread, the no-knead technique combined with bread or a.p. flour makes for more structure than the traditional French or storebought kind. (read: it's better!)
I love this channel!! I have made the pizza recipe and sent it to a few friends and family members! I tried the artisan roll/no knead rolls it’s amazing!!
I watched your video and I'm going to give this A shot! I think what I'd like to do is make three baguettes and then the fourth one I'm going to make 3-4 smaller ones for hot dog buns and see how that works out! Thank you so much! Your videos are awesome!
Enjoyed your video, will be making the baguettes, I have made chiabatta bread it was ok, I am looking forward to trying your recipe. Thank you so much.
I usually don't leave comments for anyone that I follow, I tend to be the quiet admirer...but I gotta say to love your craft so much and not give you any props almost seems like a crime. I tip my hat of to you sir 👍👏 not only do you have a gift but you share it in a way that is so simple to understand....love it ❤ Thank you.
💗 2021-03-22 🍞🥖Steve Gamelin taught me to bake my own bread. I have been making them for almost three years, I mix with dried garlic powder, all kinds of dried herbs, curry, nuts, seeds etc. but also, cinnamon, honey or with extra sugar then you get sugar bread :-) No one makes bread so fast, simpel and much easier as 'Steve from no knead bread'. I thank you a lot Steve😃 Much loaf love from the Netherland
No, you don't need parchment paper... it makes it easier to transport the dough, but you can proof the dough directly on the cookie sheet. Make sure you spray the cookie sheet with no-stick spray first. Steve
Yes... and I wouldn’t worry about preheating the baking sheet. Baking sheet generally come to temperature quickly. The underside will be a little different, but you will still love the bread. A baking sheet... like a glazed baking stone... will have a little softer (moist) underside.
Steve, you make the BEST breads. Love your technique, recipes, and videos. My favorite is the American Baguettes. Any chance of you creating a gluten free version? That would be great. Thanks for sharing!!!
I made these and, as an extra, sprinkled the top with sesame seeds before baking (the egg wash helped them stick). They were gorgeous. Thanks for the lesson.
My 19 yr old stepson loves baguettes, but will only finish the demi loaves before they go stale. So these are perfect! I also want to teach him to make these. I’m a newbie at bread making as well.
I know it is almost impossible to make authentic french bagueetes in America, but I am really satisfy with this american version bagueetes, tender, soft and full of flavor, only the crisp crust is missing though. Thanks Steve.
There are a number of variables. I find I need to proof longer in the winter because the house is cooler which retards the proofing. I would increase the proofing time. First proofing overnight and then two hours for you second proofing. Longer proofing times gives the yeasts more time to create an airier crumb. Steve
I am glad I dont know where you live. ..lol I would be at your door begging for bread! you make it look so easy that I am inspired to try. thank you for making videos for a new baker wanna be!
Hi Steve. I have watched 2 of ur vid's so far. Both very informative and i will be making bread for Easter if the one's I make in the morning come out as beautifully as urs. Will keep u posted how they turn out. Happy Easter in advance. sincerely, Nicholette
Steve, love the videos. I've already baked several loves of regular no-knead white bread that the kids absolutely love. Quick question with this recipe. Is there and adaptation to make bread sticks? Also, can you do a quick video on the best way to store your fresh bread? Thanks Steve!
Thanks, Steve! The yeast is brand new, not expired, from a previously sealed jar. But I'll try increasing my baking time, many thanks and keep up the great videos!
I am so glad. You are the cleanest guy on any you tube cooking show. I was raised in a restaurant and I always notice that first. I also love your baking area. So well organized. Thank you for responding. God Bless
I BEG YOU: Can you make a video baking a white bread with cranberries, bananas, orange (skin bits) and walnut bread? I have made a couple of breads that I made when I bought a 5 minute bread cooking book and all were not so right..., so, I followed yours and IT WAS A SUCCESS! You are the best! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
WOW...Thank you so much Steve....great clear and concise video....we do smoked pit meats....now we gonna serve them on our ..Your Baggett bread.....love trhis was an answer to a prayer to Father Yahweh....I knew this day would be Awesome!!!!!!
my first ever no knead dough is on it's second proofing all seems good at this point dough handled nicely , first proof did well i set my dough bowl in microwave with door shut seems good environment for proofing, I don't have dough/scrapers yet, but a cheap plastic clean putty knife worked wonders for giving the proofed dough a turn on floured board. and also for cutting the dough .I might add the finished round dough ball felt beautiful , now must invest in pizza paddle, for now I put parchment paper cut to size of my oven stone and placed on the top of a floured sturdy pizza box praying it will transfer my dough onto hot stone like a paddle ,parchment might be the saving grace..this is actually fun and starting a new batch today....thanks so much steve can't wait to see and taste the end result.. next will be the skillet to heavy pot round loaf method
If you want a crustier bread and don't have a baking stone..maybe add a few ice cubes in the bottom of the oven to create moisture/steam so the bread comes out crispier. I do that for my loaves.
Great job! Well done! One could also place a tray of cold water in bottom of oven to create steam so that bread gets even more crispy. Good idea that the yeast does not come in contact with the salt (on top of each other) as it could kill the yeast. Patrick Raffaelo artist

By far the easiest way to make baguettes. I'll give it a try. Thank you for sharing!
Steve, have the dough on the counter for tomorrows bake. About the 10th time I have made these, and they are just no fail. TY, TY, TY, TY.!

Bravo Steve! You're one in a thousand that keeps everything clean while baking. Have you worked in a Lab Before?
I was a hospital corpsman back in the 60's. Steve
Thank you for the recipe, Steve!
What if I don't had the baking stone? Would it be ok to bake them on the rack?!
You can bake them on a cookie sheet, etc. Steve
@@artisanbreadwithsteve thank you, sir!
cant wait to try this! thank you for your time and effort and know and double thanks for sharing it!!
The Best! Thank you!
If you want a crustier bread and don't have a baking stone..maybe add a few ice cubes in the bottom of the oven to create moisture/steam so the bread comes out crispier. I do that for my loaves.
Great idea, thanks.
Soo yummy
