Pane Francese from The Complete America’s Test Kitchen TV Show Cookbook 2001–2022: Every Recipe from the Hit TV Show Along with Product Ratings (page 796) by America's Test Kitchen

  • bread flour
  • instant yeast
    Instant yeast appears similar to active dry yeast, but has smaller granules with substantially higher percentages of live cells per comparable unit volumes. It is more perishable than active dry yeast, but also does not require rehydration, and can usually be added directly to all but the driest doughs. Instant yeast generally has a small amount of ascorbic acid added as a preservative. (Wikipedia) Buy Now

Notes about this recipe

  • Shewi128 on May 01, 2023

    I have been waiting to try some of these techniques in Bread Illustrated--like using the lava rocks in pie pans--for years. I even bought a linen couche to up my bread making game. The bread turned out great--the crust wasn't as crispy as I would like, but I don't have a professional oven. Speaking of my oven--the day or two after I used the lava rocks, my oven's glass cracked and broke. It could have been the uneven heat from the rocks. Sadly, I won't be trying that particular technique again.
