No Knead Bread

I've seen no-knead bread on a lot of blogs. I've tried two different recipes. They are slightly different, but have the same idea. Here are the links to both with a summary of the differences.

Sister's Cafe 5 Minute No-Knead Bread (this is the one I brought to playgroup)

• Makes 4 small loaves
• Uses lots of yeast--takes about 4 hours start to finish
• Bake on a stone with a pan of water for the crust.
• More mild flavor
• I used 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour and the rest white on the playgroup loaf.
  

NY Times/ Sullivan Street Bakery Bread (this is the one that seems to be the favorite in the blog world)

• Makes 1 large loaf
• Uses minimal yeast and takes 1-2 days to rise
• Bakes in a dutch oven to generate steam and the crusty exterior.
  
• Longer rise time gives the flavor more time to develop.

I haven't decided which I prefer. I do like that I don't have to plan so far in advance for the Sisters' Cafe version, but I kind of like the flavor of the other. You can be your own judge I suppose.
