WHITE PULLMAN LOAF (PAIN DE MIE)
You'll never buy supermarket bread again after trying this homemade white bread. Using "enriched dough" (one with milk and eggs) gives this loaf a delicious flavor and velvety soft crumb. (For baking, accurate metric measurements produce the best results, so we recommend using a digital scale for this recipe.)

Steps:
- Starter: Also called pre-ferment, pâte fermentée (a mature pre-ferment, as in this starter), or poolish (which contains commercial yeast, as in this starter), this is the leavening or rising component of the bread baking process. Turn on a digital scale and weigh your empty container. Deduct the weight of the container by pressing the "tare" function, which resets the scale to zero. Add milk to the container, and tare to zero again. Then, continuing to weigh the ingredients, add salt, pinch of yeast, sugar, and flour. Use a chopstick to stir the starter until the dry and wet ingredients are just mixed. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, 6-8 hours.
- Dough: Stir flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a medium bowl, and set aside. Pour milk into the pre-ferment to loosen it. Whisk 2 eggs in a large bowl; then stir in the pre-ferment/milk mixture. Use a rubber spatula to break up the pre-ferment into the liquid. Add the flour mixture and the butter, and continue mixing until most of the dry ingredients have been combined with the starter mixture. Using a wooden spoon, and starting in the middle of the bowl, slowly stir to the edges until most of the flour has been mixed in and hydrated.
- Roll and Tuck: A technique to develop gluten in the dough so it becomes firmer and easier to work with. This is done one time, followed by a resting period. Combine 1 part fine semolina with 5 parts unbleached white flour to make dusting flour, and lightly dust a clean work surface. Using a plastic bowl scraper, push the dough and residual flour out of the bowl onto the work surface. Use the scraper to stretch and gently shape the dough into a rough rectangle (dough will still be sticky). Then, starting at one end, roll and tuck the dough like a tube, about 3-4 times. Flip the dough so it's seam-side up and flatten again to a rectangle in the opposite direction, so the seam stretches from left to right. Repeat rolling and tucking, always returning to a seam-up position. Continue until the dough feels stronger and begins to resist any further rolling, about 10 times. All of the flour will get absorbed into the dough during this process. Shape into a ball and place into a bowl coated with nonstick spray. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature, 45 minutes.
- Stretch and Fold: This technique strengthens the dough by folding it over onto itself. This process is repeated 3 times, with a resting period after each stretch and fold. Lightly dust the work surface and your hands with dusting flour. Using the scraper, release the dough from the bowl and place it seam-side down on the work surface. Gently shape into a rectangle, then fold the dough into thirds, like a letter. Pat it down slightly, then repeat the same fold in the other direction. Place the dough back in the bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature, 45 minutes. For the second stretch and fold, repeat the steps for the first stretch and fold, but this time stretch the dough by flipping back and forth (like pizza dough). Gently reshape it into a rough rectangular shape before folding. Cover with plastic wrap and rest at room temperature, 45 minutes. For the third and final stretch and fold, repeat the steps for the second stretch and fold, cover with plastic wrap and rest at room temperature, 45 minutes.
- Shaping/Fermentation (Proofing): Shape the dough to prepare it for baking, then ferment (proof) it for a period of time to expand the dough and develop flavor. Spray the bottom and sides of a pullman loaf pan with nonstick spray. Lightly dust the work surface and your hands with dusting flour. Press the dough down slightly to de-gas it, then stretch into a 16-inch square (or to whatever length of the pan you're using). Roll the square into a tube. Place the tube seam side down into the prepared pan. Gently tap the dough down with your fist to even it out in the pan, then cover with plastic wrap. Let rest at room temperature until the dough rises about 1½ -inches above the surface of the pan, 1½-3 hours.
- Baking: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (preferably convection). Test dough for baking by gently pressing; it should bounce back, leaving a slight dimple. Make an egg wash by whisking the remaining egg with a pinch of salt; add about 1 tablespoon of milk to thin it out. Spray the outer edges of the pan with nonstick spray and use a pastry brush to gently brush egg wash across the top of the dough, twice. (The spray will ensure the egg wash doesn't seep into the corners of the pan.) Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Lower temperature to 385 degrees F. Rotate the pan and bake an additional 12-15 minutes. Test for doneness by removing from oven and giving it a thump on top; it should sound hollow. Tap the pan on the counter to release the loaf; turn it over and carefully remove the bread from the pan. Return the loaf to the oven on its side, and bake directly on the rack to solidify the shape, 5 minutes.
- Cooling, Slicing, and Storing: Transfer bread to a cooling rack (and notice the caramel aroma!). Cool completely before slicing and eating, at least 2 hours. Store loosely in plastic for 7 days.
PULLMAN BREAD PAIN DE MIE
I bought a pullman bread pan years ago. Pain De Mie in french. I finally did a bit of research and made a loaf. This makes square shaped slices great for sandwiches. Way better then store bought bread! This makes a dense white bread that holds up well. Slice it after it has cooled, and keep it in the freezer taking out what is...

Steps:
- 1. A found a little history about this bread pan; The name "Pullman" was derived from its use in the compact kitchens of the Pullman railway cars. The Pullman Company is credited with inventing the lidded baking pans used to create the square loaves. Three Pullman loaves occupied the same space as two standard round-topped loaves, thus maximizing the use of space in the Pullman kitchen.
- 2. Also, in my research, I have found that you can make any white bread recipe you like. The trick with this pan, is using the right amount of dough. I found if you fill it about 1/3 of the pan, the loaf will bake up to the top and create a perfectly square loaf.
- 3. The recipe I share here, is a basic white loaf recipe. If you like, you can half the white flour and substitute whole wheat or other flour. Again, if you do have this pan, try other yeast bread recipes that you like. King Arthur Flour Company has a recipe for this bread. They include a bit of potato flour, which I didnt have, so I used my old stand by basic white bread this time.
- 4. Bread Machine Method: Place all of the ingredients into the pan of your machine, program the machine for Manual or Dough, and press Start. When the cycle is finished, remove the dough and proceed as follows. Lightly grease a 13 x 4-inch pain de mie pan. Transfer the risen dough to a lightly greased work surface, shape it into a 13-inch log, and fit it into the pan. Cover the pan with lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow the dough to rise until it's just below the lip of the pan, 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the warmth of your kitchen (it may rise even more slowly in a cool kitchen; don't worry, this long rise will give it great flavor). Remove the plastic, and carefully place the cover on the pan, let it rest an additional 10 minutes while you preheat your oven to 350°F. Bake the bread for 25 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, carefully remove the lid, and return the bread to the oven to bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until it tests done. Remove the bread from the oven, and turn it out of the pan onto a rack to cool completely.
- 5. Manual Method: In a large bowl, combine the milk, water, butter, salt and sugar. Add the dried milk, flours and yeast, stirring till the dough starts to leave the sides of the bowl. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased surface, oil your hands, and knead it for 5 to 8 minutes, or until it's smooth and supple. Because of the relatively high fat content of this dough, it's a real pleasure to work with. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl or dough-rising bucket, cover the bowl or bucket, and allow the dough to rise till puffy though not necessarily doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours, depending on the warmth of your kitchen.
- 6. Mixer Method: Combine the ingredients as above, using a flat beater paddle or beaters, then switch to the dough hook(s) and knead for 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl,cover the bowl, and allow the dough to rise till doubled in bulk, 1 to 2 hours.
PAIN DE MIE
A very special white sandwich bread from a class I took in Craftsy, light, white with a tight crust, perfect for thin slices of bread for sandwiches. Just a little different from other recipes here so wanted to save. This is baked in a special Pullman pan, that I've shown that keeps the bread in the perfect tight crumb, but if baking in a regular pain be sure to brush with an egg white and slash before baking

Steps:
- NOTE: Pain de mie is best made with a mixer.
- Remove butter from fridge and pound it soft with a rolling pin. You won't need to strike it more than 10 or 12 times. Make sure it can take the impression of your finger.
- Combine all ingredients except butter in the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix on slow speed for 4 minutes.
- Increase mixer speed to medium, add half the softened butter, nix for 1 minute. Add the remaining softened butter and mix n additional 5 minutes. All the butter should have disappeared into the dough, creating strength and suppleness.
- Cover dough and let it ferment for 1 1/4 hours, folding once after 45 minutes.
- Spray a 13-inch Pullman pan with nonstick spray.
- Carefully turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently de-gas the dough as you pat it into a rectangular shape.
- Divide the rectangle roughly in half. (Its OK if the aren't exactly the same weight).
- Shape each piece in a baguette like rope, about 20 inches long. Lightly twist the ropes together and place in pullman pan.
- Put lid on the pan but leave it open 1-2 inches so you can check progress of dough as it proofs. The dough will require 1 to 1 1.2 hours to achieve full volume. It's ready to bake when the top surface of the dough is about 1/2 inch below the lid of the pan. Close lid completely before baking.
- Bake at 450 F for 10 minutes. Lower temperature to 350 F and bake another 25 minutes. Remove the lid from the pan and bake for another 10 minutes. Check the sidewall of the loaf. They should be solid and golden brown. If they aren't, invert pan and let the pan de mie slide out o a shet pan. Bake for an extra 5 minutes, or until the sidewall have enough structure to hold up the weight of the loaf.

SUPER SANDWICH BREAD (PAIN DE MIE) (LEVAIN BAKERY)
Pain De Mie (French) literally means 'Sandwich loaf'. Equivalent of a Pullman loaf but not as sweet as American sandwich bread. Levain Bakery is located on New York City's Upper West side but it bakes with a distinct French accent. Co-founded by two friends who had worked in the fashion and finance industries, the bakery has won kudos from Zagat and others for its artisanal methods and the authentic flavors of its breads and pastries. Time does not include rise-time. We've not tried the recipe yet, but it's put here for safe keeping. NOTE: We plan on re-inventing this recipe shortly and getting it right. Many thanks to jujubegirl, for her insightful review. You can view the original recipe here: http://www.levainbakery.com/baking/recipies/pain-de-mie-super-sandwich-bread.aspx

Steps:
- Put yeast and warm water in a small mixing bowl. Whisk until creamy. Set aside for 1-2 minutes.
- Using a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment, combine the flour and salt. While mixing on low speed, gradually add in the cut-up butter and buttermilk. Then add in the cool water as needed to form smooth dough. TIP: When first combining water and flour, its essential to create dough with the right consistency. If dough is too wet and sticky, add a bit more flour. If dough is too dry and hard, add a bit more cool water.
- Continue mixing for 5 to 8 minutes until dough is elastic. Remove mixing bowl from stand. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in the refrigerator for 8 to 24 hours.
- After dough has risen, lightly grease two 8-inch loaf pans. Divide risen dough in half and form each piece into a rectangular loaf shape. Place shaped loaves into prepared pans. Dust the tops of the dough with flour and cover the loaf pans loosely with plastic wrap. Let the dough proof for 8-24 hours in the refrigerator.
- When dough has done proofing, preheat the oven to 375°F Lightly flour the top of each loaf. With a razor blade or very sharp knife, score the top of each loaf diagonally 3 times. Place the sheet pan in the center of the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes.

SMALL LOAF PAIN DE MIE
I searched the internet, after not finding a recipe on site, that had a bread recipe to use in my 9 inch pullman pan. I bought the pan last summer after being exposed to one during a whole wheat bread class I attended a couple of years back. Since I am finally getting started in baking bread, I knew I had to try this pan out soon. Recipe is from King Arthur Flour website. Here is what they say about this recipe: "Pain de mie is a fine-textured, moist bread baked in a special lidded pan. The lid keeps the loaf from crowning, giving it a flat top and perfectly square-edged slices. While most pain de mie recipes call for a traditional 13" x 4" x 4" pan, this one is perfect for our smaller 9" x 4" pan."

Steps:
- Mix all of the ingredients in the order listed, and mix and knead - by hand, or using a stand mixer - to make a smooth dough. It won't be particularly soft nor stiff; it should be smooth and feel bouncy and elastic under your hands.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, or large (8-cup) measuring cup. Cover it, and let it rise for 60 to 90 minutes, till it's become quite puffy, though not necessarily doubled in size.
- Gently deflate the dough, and shape it into a 9" log. Place it in a lightly greased 9" pain de mie pan. Cover the top of the pan with plastic wrap, to protect the dough as it rises.
- Let the dough rise for about 60 minutes, till it's within about 1/2" of the top edge of the pan. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Remove the plastic wrap, and slide the greased lid onto the pan. Bake the bread for 25 minutes. Remove the lid, and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, till it's a rich golden brown. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center will read 195°F to 200°F If you prefer a lighter-colored crust, tent the loaf with foil as soon as you remove the pan lid.
- Remove the bread from the oven, and turn it out onto a rack to cool. When completely cool, wrap in plastic, and store at room temperature.

- Ensure milk is warm, not hot (about 110 F). Add the yeast, sugar, and egg. Stir and set aside to foam for 5 mins.Pro-tip- instant yeast does not need to be activated but I like to ensure my yeast is good and working for me. You may choose to add all ingredients directly to the flour.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, with the hook attachment add the flour. Mix in the salt then add in the yeast mixture.Pro-tip - if you do not like kneading I highly recommend using a stand mixer with the hook attachment.
- Remove the dough from the mixer bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a ball.Pro-tip - using a flexible bread scraper does a good job of removing the sticky dough from the bowl.
- Cover loaf pan with plastic wrap or clean kitchen cloth. Let rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes until almost 2 inches from the top rim of the loaf pan.
