Submitted by aturco on January 18, 2010 - 11:35am Crust/Film forming on No-Knead DoughHappy 2010 all... I am back to making bread again in the colder months. I like making the no-Knead bread, its quick and easy. However lately, when I let it sit overnight the top of it forms a hard crust, I dont remember this forming when I made it last year. I am using GM all purpose flour, I put it in the over w/ the light on covered either with plastic or a dish towel. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Alex

Oiled Plastic
If it's covered with plastic which has been oiled to prevent it from sticking to the top of the dough ball and placed in direct contact with the dough, it shouldn't create a dry crust. A towel, however, will not work as well.
Okay thanks, I will give that
Okay thanks, I will give that a try, will it still rise effectively?

No Pressure
As long as the plastic wrap "rides" the dough ball and doesn't put a strong resistence on its movement it should rise just fine.
