Nigel, it was fun while it lasted but it's time to move on. I'm with Jim now. I've used a Nigel Slater bread recipe for the last three years, but my allegience has abruptly shifted. One of my hometown papers has come up trumps. "No-Knead Bread", The New York Times (www.nytimes.com 8 November 06) is a foolproof, innovative bread recipe that involves no kneading. It's been created by Jim Lahey of the Sullivan Street Bakery on West 47th in Manhattan. Incredibly generous of him to share the recipe - thank you! I will miss the kneading (or "knuckle dusting" - I prefer to punch), but I won't miss olive-oil leaking over the oven or the perfectly good, but not great taste of the Nigel recipe. Jim's recipe is so simple and so rewarding. Not many things in life you can say that about. Jim's recipe allows me to make bread that looks like it comes from Poilâne (but doesn't cost 36 euros to ship from Paris). And although I haven't tasted a Poilâne loaf, this baby was brilliant! A light, crispy crust and tender inside. So bye bye Nigel, and hello Jim! I guess you can take the girl out of America, but you can't take America out of the girl . . . UPDATE: I've read grumblings on some foodie blogs that this isn't an original recipe and the ancient Greeks were cooking bread in pots. Really? Well since I don't subscribe to any ancient Greek RSS feeds, I'm glad Lahey updated this for a new generation and the NYT printed it . 29 November 2006 - Since posting these pix I've made this recipe about 8 times. I've got it memorised and it is still easy and still completely foolproof. I now use 2/3 organic stoneground wholewheat flour and 1/3 white flour. Bliss! |
