Pain de mie au levain

I found a very nice blog (in French), called Makanai (http://makanaibio.com/)  - she had a recipe for pain de mie au levain that immediately called my attention.

 

I include a photo of my bread here, and if anyone is interested in reading a full decription plus the recipe, it is here

We loved this bread, I am sure it can be adapted to different grains and flour composition, I went with all purpose and rye flour about 3 to 1.

Flo Makanai has contributed to TFL by her posting. Check the archived threads. She knows how to bake.

Yeah, she is a great baker indeed!

 

I've been drooling over her blog and making my list of recipes to try  :-)

Hello, Paolo!   I saw that link over at Flo's blog - and of course HAD to bookmark it!

 

Nice to see Jane over there, as well as Steve, from Breadcetera.   Clotilde has been making bread quite a bit too lately.  Should be a cool site to visit.   I am not sure they take articles written in English, or if their contest is for French-written stuff only.  I didn't have time to read carefully yet.
