Pugliese

This is bread #10. Pugliese is the bread featured on the cover of the Bread Bible:

And that is pretty much exactly what these breads looked like. Except they look really large on the cover, and in fact they're about the size of a Mac Mini:

This was a light and almost balloonish loaf, with a light but chewy crust. It was perfect for dipping into a little oil and vinegar; I ate a loaf for dinner last night.
