Bread
Village bread is a large, thick-crusted bread traditionally leavened over a long time with sourdough or a small amount of yeast and baked in a wood-fired oven. Its long fermentation gives the interior a slightly sour taste and a durable structure. It is a staple bread of rural kitchens.
Where It's Used
“Bake the village bread at high heat in a steam oven to get a thick crust.”
