No-Knead Crusty Bread

I háve álwáys wánted to máke breád, but háve been scáred of it. I'm the girl who didn't own á rolling pin until recently - I hád been known to roll things out with á wine bottle... But áfter receiving á Kitchen áid Mixer for my birthdáy, I decided it wás time to táckle ánother item on my cooking bucket list... breád. I reád through á bunch of recipes ánd bought breád flour ánd yeást át the supermárket.  

Then I cáme ácross á recipe for á no-kneád crusty breád using á Dutch oven to báke it. Reálly? It seemed too good to be true. I wouldn't even need to use my mixer.
