Couronne
I tried baking a Couronne this weekend:
The bad news: the dough was too slack for me to shape very well, so it didn't turn out terribly pretty.
The good news: the slack dough made wonderful bread. Even with a quarter of the flour whole wheat, it was light and airy. We gobbled it up.
The recipe was roughly the rustic bread [1] I've baked many times. I think I went a little heavier on the whole wheat than usual, but I wasn't paying close attention.
