Request for pictures of BBA's pain de campagne
I'm new to artisinal bread baking, and I have made pain de campagne in Bread Baker's Apprentice twice. It didn't come out the way I was expecting either time. Fairly dense crumb, chewy not crackly crust. It doesn't taste bad, in fact, the next day it's really good, but it's not what I was expecting. I followed the instructions very closely, so maybe it actually came out the way it was supposed to and I just didn't know it. So could someone try the recipe (p. 195) and post pictures so I can see how it turns out for someone else? I would post my own pictures for diagnosis, but I don't have a digital camera. I'll have to get one once I start making bread worth bragging about.
Thanks!
Abby
