Day 117: Pain Italien

This Italian bread did not disappoint! The recipe was a bit different from French bread in that it used a bit of milk and olive oil. Makes sense for Italian bread when you think about it. I wasn't expecting this bread to turn out this beautiful, but I was so impressed. The recipe said to bake it for about 40-50 minutes, but I only had it in there for about 40 and it got this dark. It's got a fantastic crust on it that's both chewy and crispy at the same time. There wasn't any steaming for this bread, so I don't know yet if that's just a French thing or not. There are a few more French breads but they require a few days prep in advance. I'll get back to them but for now we're on the Italian bread train!
