cheers and thank you againThis will work. I have a ceramic terra cotta Romertopf pot but have not used it for this bread. For this recipe, the pot needs to be very hot before the bread goes inside. I would be concerned that the pot wouldn't do very well with cold dough dropped into it. I would be afraid it might crack. Maybe if you wet it... Pastorio

chacun à son goût

Which is why they are good for when you're out camping etc.

Merci bien, Pierre. Il etait une plaisanterie. Comment dites-vous "whoosh" en Australie?

Of course. But that wasn't the subject.

Whatever.

No. It was 'no knead bread'........ which is what damper is.

Has anyone actually Pyrex to bake this with this high heat. (450 degrees) It seems that the wet dough would crack the Pyrex. I used a 2qt Crueset and it seems too small.

I found a site on the web that stated that the company that makes Pyrex has changed the formulation. The old stuff was pretty safe when you put cold into a hot Pyrex dish, but the new stuff is supposedly dangerous and may shatter. I don't know any more about this, and I don't use Pyrex for bread baking, but if you do, you should check it out.

I had a pyrex dish shatter from thermal shock once. It's \ definitely something to be aware of.

In this case though, cooking bread in it at 450 F won't be a problem. They're designed for that temp and the wet dough isn't a factor.

Yes, the pot is nice and the chicken which you cook there comes very tasty, because the flavour stay inside. BTW Thank you. I will try. If the bread will come out longer, I will it more :DDDDDDDDD Cheers pandora

Ohhhh! Bob! But dough is not so cold ! It is at room temperature, it doesn't come out from fridge. I hope it doesn't break and if it happens I will jump from the window for desperation :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD But I Am courageous and I will try. I will start perhaps this evening, or tomorrow. I will let you know.

It's worth reading this page on the Pyrex website and this page on the USA Consumer Affairs website.

I'm not keen on soda bread, it gives me indigestion these days, but damper no-knead bread is eminently suitable for entertaining, educating and fuelling campers, especially young ones.
