Crusty Bread

Bread baked until the outside is dry and hard while the inside stays soft. The dough is wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt, and the crust comes from a hot oven and steam.

Origin

The ordinary European-style loaf.

Flavour

The crust is toasty. The crumb is mild.

How to use it

Tear or slice it for the table. Day-old crusty bread is the right start for breadcrumbs and puddings.

Storage

A bread bin for a day or two. After that, freeze it.
