I baked it in my ceramic cocotte last night, and just tried a slice this morning. It's a great excuse (and delicious platform) for some lightly salted butter. I wonder if most bread recipes would be improved if baked covered in this fashion? That to me is the greatest innovation of this alchemical recipe, and I'm also impressed that a mere quarter teaspoon of yeast yields such wonderful results. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

(I've been a bad blogger myself). Of I made this bread, too! How fun that everyone is doing it. It came out okay, but also a little flat. I'm thinking smaller pan next time. Thanksgiving weekend I'm going to pass it along and make it with my mom. This is one fast-spreading bread recipe! Hi Charlotte, just catching up here. (I’ve been a bad blogger myself).

Our third batch is fermenting as I type. My husband has repeatedly pointed out that once we've achieved the perfect crust, we won't have anything to live for. Life is dedicated to the quest!
