Hello from Charleston, SC

I've been on and off this site for a while and find everyone so helpful with great recipes.  I've been baking for a while but in spurts so I consider myself a new bread baker.  Recently I bought a clay cloche  from King Arthur and have been playing with that a bit.  I've been using a no knead bread receipe, weighing the dough, using about a pound at a time.  It seems not to rise much before I bake it and the loaves seem kind of small.  I wonder if I'm handing the dough too much.  Other than that, the bread tastes good and has a nice crust which what I was after.  I've made other breads with varying success.

Are there any other bread recipes that would lend itself to the cloche?  Hopefully, I didn't buy a one trick pony but I do like it and probably could use it as a stone, I guess.

Thanks

 Donna
