this is going to be my go-to bread recipe from now on.. The recipe makes the best bread, moist inside and crusty outside and is easy to make. i really thank Ms. Calder for making this available to people. i very much appreciate her show- she shows great respect for the ingredients and creates good food.

I bake bread frequently at home (I was raised in a bakery and this recipe goes against everything I learned from my father about baking bread.
It is absolutely the easiest and best tasting loaf I have ever made.
Most definitely a weekly bake.

This is just so wonderful. The perfect country bread. Very French in taste, too.
It lasts for days! Amazing. I did leave it alone for 24 hours and made it exactly
as Laura wrote it and I am making it for the third time as I type. Oh, do try it!!

Best, easiest boule recipe ever. Can add herbs, etc., to dough also. Wish she would update her TV show with new recipes.

So delicious! I have tried many much more complicated recipes and not achieved the flavor and texture of this bread. Very happy to have discovered it.

Tasty indeed, and simple. Just remember to be generous with the coating of whatever you use ( I used cornmeal to avoid sticking to the cloth.

Laura Calder has captured the essence of French cuisine technique, taste and philosophy. From what I remember this is one her own family recipes but she is right in stating that it is very close to the European breads. Effectively, my husband and daughter being French and thus harsh "bread critics" they ate this up as soon as cooled!If your measurements are exact, there will be no need to add anything, The only thing I had to tweek were the last 30 min of "browning time" This will depend on how thick you want your crust and your oven, rack position...

I had the same problem as a few other cooks. The water amount didn't seem to work right I had to add another cup as well. (not sure if it was because I used warm water, if it works next time I make it I will try cold water Hope it turns out right, it's now sitting in a warm area for tomorrow when I will bake it. Will let you know if it turns out. I sure hope so.
I made two Boule today they came out great ... I have to admit I did not think they would taste good but they are fantastic in-fact I'm giving one to a friend. I hope they like it!
