Le Amourette ??

Attempting to translate a french bread formula, and came across an ingredient called Amourette.

Googled it but came up with no real definition.

Can any one tell me what this moght be.

Thanks

I think we were just finding the same thing at the same time on google - kind of funny actually. I was on my iphone and it won't let me put in anything except in the subject line. There has to be a way to get an iphone app for the fresh loaf!

Hi berryblondeboys, If you click on 'rich text editor' under the comment box that should make it possible for you to enter comments using your iPhone. Gary

Is it possible your recipe refers to L'amourette Bread Base offered by Lentia (product # 001-00006):

That's on interesting twist - big difference from a dough starter and an liquor! LOL

The bread base must be it. I scoured the web and never saw a listing for it. Also the formula is over 10 years old, must not be if using a fairly new bread base.

 

Thanks to everyone for the help.
