Le Pain

And here is my pain au levain! It was delicious and crusty and everything a good bread should be! This is post #2 of the breadalong series. You can find post #1 here.

My pain is (bigger than) your pain
A holey pain!
Pain is relative in size
PS:  I had a ton of trouble uploading pictures and finally when it worked I had selected "small". You can click on any of them for a larger version, and I think you should!

PPS: "pain" = French for bread. Which can be a pain to make. "Pain au levain" is a sourdough french bread with a multi-stage starter. And that's all I know about it :)

Great job! You got beautiful holes! (I bet that isn't something you hear everyday.)

See? The extra work comes out in the flavor. I love pain au levain.
