OMG OMG, i made time to make my DBC, but I TOTALLY forgot to make time to post it. I've been sick for the past few days and now little Morgane is sick too. Anyway, this recipe was pretty simple, however I wasn't super happy with the results. My bread was so salty and really pale and sickly looking. Didn't taste that bad, but my husband loved it. I made a second batch with unbleached flour and it came out a little better, then I turned on the broiler for a few minutes to give it a little brown color. I have to admit, I made some really tasty sandwiches... So-maybe I'll try it again... or, maybe I won't. I have to try other french bread recipes first. I saw other peoples bread and it looked amazing. I don't know what I did wrong!

Good for you for posting finally. Life comes first, so it is understandable that you are just getting to it now. sorry your bread didn't come out quite as you wanted it to. I don't have the luxury of heat from the top in my oven, nor a broiler. My first batch was sickly pale. The second batch, I brushed olive oil all over it, once before it went in and once again after maybe 5 minutes. The salty part, not sure...my salt is a bit different and the level was fine. Great job for trying and trying twice that is! Hope you are feeling better and have a great weekend!
