What is a Peasant Loaf?
I always hear the term "Peasant Bread," but I've never been able to nail down a definition. I assumed it was a whole wheat loaf made with poolish, but recipes online are all across the board.
Is this just another name for "rustic" or "artisan" bread, or does it have a more specific meaning?
Any thoughts?
