#HoneyLavenderBread

More bread baking, and this is one of my all-time favourites: Richard Bertinet's lavender & honey wholemeal bread - but this time I baked it in my new oven bread pan, and that made a real difference. This bread has never looked so good.
I baked it 15 minutes with the lid on, and then 20 without.

Closeup, from above, of the bread after 15 minutes of baking with the lid on (and an ice-cube thriwn in before I closed the lid.) the dough has hardly coloured but it has risen well.

Same camera position: this is after 20 more minutes of baking with the lid off. The bread is now a dark brown (with white patches where the flour clung to it.)

Another pic of the bread, now on a round cooling wrack. Behind the bread is an open book, 'Dough', by Richard Bertinet. There's a photo of his version of the bread. I had to shape mine differently in order to fit the dough in my pan. RB made a score in the form of a double cross. I went for one long slash over the length of the bread, plus a leaf pattern paralel to that slash.

Closeup of the bread, still on its rack, from the side. This shows that the bread has risen well. It also shows of part of that leaf pattern nicely.
