No-knead/do-nothing bread with add-ins?
As much as I love the ritual of building levain, autolyse and all the rest, there are times when an overnight, no-knead loaf would be a boon. Now that I've discovered soakers and scalds (haven't worked up to porridge yet), I love adding them to my dough.
In the instance of a no-knead loaf, I assume that things like sesame, sunflower, pumpkin and poppy seeds can be added into the mix from the beginning? But what about a soaker? Would I mix the dough first, then try to incorporate the soaker, or just dump everything into the tub at the same time and mix?
Many thanks for your thoughts, and keep on bakng.
