A Celebration of Wheat 6.27.11

Clear Flour Bread,, 178 Thorndike Street, Brookline, MA

I figure I'd include the website since I've featured so many of this bakery's products on my blog.  Today's special is Pain Meunier

Pain Meunier ("Miller's Bread") - Each step of taking grain to flour is used: cracked wheat, whole wheat flour, wheat germ & white flour

It's like a wonderful, whole grain, sandwich bread.

Let's talk crumb!  This loaf has a loose, yet pretty regular (even texture) crumb.  It's not completely even, since you can see the holes toward the top of the loaf are larger than the ones near the bottom.  Nice for sandwiches, or when I top them with tomato sauce and melted cheese (like a pizza). 

Bread in many languages (from Google Translator; but don't ask me how to pronounce them)
