Kenji Lopez-Alt] It's difficult to make good bread today, but it's darned easy to make hot, fresh, world-class bread tomorrow. This focaccia, topped with olives, rosemary, and pistachios, requires no kneading or stretching and results in a crisp, olive oil-scented crust and a puffy, moist, well-risen internal crumb with just the right amount of tender chew. The crux of it is a highly hydrated, no-knead, no-stretch dough. That's right. Zero kneading, zero stretching. It's just about the easiest bread you can imagine making. All it takes is a bit of time. Why this recipe works: An overnight rest at room temperature precludes the need for any kneading. A high hydration dough spreads itself out into the pan before baking. Extremely high oven temperatures lead to better internal structure and a crust that crisps while the interior crumb stays moist...."
