When I told my Mom how excited I was about this bread she informed me that her grandfather used to make bread in coffee cans and such. For some reason this wealth of knowledge about pot and can bread-making in my Italian family was not passed on to me! Shame! Oh well, now I know.
I would have liked it to puff up a little more, but I think I should have baked it for 5 more minutes. I was too afraid that the bottom of the bread was burning so I took it out.

You can see the thick crust and the chewy, soft middle..mmm. Yes, these things excite me. More than you will ever know.

Who's coming over for some? This one is not leaving the house.

For some reason this blog keeps cutting off the right side of my pictures..have to figure that one out!
ReplyDeleteOk, already! You are making me hungry. This bread looks incredible and I just may have to try it myself. We loved the bread in Brazil and cannot find anything that even comes close here. We have tried different brands and I have tried a few recipes, but they just don't compare. So, I think I will give yours a try and see what the family thinks.
ReplyDeleteWe do wish that we had a good bread store around here, but no such luck!
I'm so glad you tried this recipe and liked it as much as we did! It looks fabulous and I really don't know how you stopped at just one slice :)
