What is the point of no knead bread?
No knead bread is an easy fuss free yeast bread where a longer fermentation happens on its own (without kneading). Whereas, in a bread that is kneaded the fermentation is getting a helping hand by working the proteins at a faster rate. This creates the gluten strands that give bread its structure and texture. No knead bread typically needs 18-24 hours to develop on its own.
