Description

You could make this bread, and no other, for the rest of your baking career, and never feel cheated. It uses the sponge method: sort of a poor man's or woman's sourdough starter — no feedings, little pre-planning, lots of flexibility, and superb bread. If you've always wanted crusty, hole-ridden, French-style bread, this is it.
