"This is my version of Jim Lahey's (Sullivan Street Bakery) No-Knead Bread Recipe. It doesn't have the huge holes in the finished loaf as pictured in some of the 18 hour rise recipes but I find it delicious, easier to cleanup and make! I replaced the plastic lid handle of the Le Creuset dutch oven I use with a stainless steel drawer pull to avoid having it crack or melt in the high heat of the oven. The oiled parchment paper saves on cleanup and prevents any sticking problems. Please use this recipe as a starting point and customize it as you like.
