Method (preview)

1. 1

   Firm Dough (La Pate Ferme): rarely used, except for regional large loaves. Consists of 52- 55% water, i.e., two cups of water to every 6 cups of flour.

2. 2

   When home bakers make the dough too firm, the bread has good shape and expansion, but a tight and dry texture.
