Carbohydrates, carbohydrates,
Make you fat, make you fat!
If you want to be thin, if you want to be thin,
Then eat meat. Then eat meat.
I've been making a lot of bread. I can't shake that tune from my head.
I finally decided to try the "French Bread" recipe that came with the French Loaf Pan I got from Williams-Sonoma. You know, the one I ranted about...
I baked these on Tuesday:

And these came out of the oven ten minutes ago:

Compare with the recipe I developed:

Mine aren't bad, but they're a little pale. And they were a little drier too.
Actually, the recipes aren't that different. I only realized that this week, when I looked it over to try it. I think the big difference is brushing egg white on the loaves before baking. I've been over-baking mine, trying to get them nicely browned. I'm going to retry my recipe in the next week or so and see if brushing egg on them makes the difference.
Here's to carbohydrates!
