 Submitted by LeadDog on June 29, 2008 - 5:32pm Auvergne CrownI thought I would try to make this bread from "Local Breads". I wasn't sure how it would turn out since this is the first time I had tried making this bread. When I was shaping the crown it picked up to much flour from the counter and the ends of the rope didn't want to seal together. I just twisted them around each other and it didn't come apart. The bread looked a little light to me so I left it in an extra 10 minutes. I'm going to cut it later tonight and see how it tastes.

Tastes Great
The twisting came about from me trying to seal the ends together. I gave up before I made a mess of the dough. Here is a picture of the sliced bread.
The crumb was very moist. I'm glad that I cooked the bread an extra 10 minutes. Next time I would cook it another 5 minutes. The book said to cook the bread at 400° F which is about 50 to 60 degrees lower than I normally cook bread.
The bread tastes great and the people at work loved it too.
