Poitevin twist (Slideshow version)

Poitevin twist : Photo of step #26

Stage 16/16 : 25 min.

Bake for 25 minutes at 480°F (250°C).

Note: As when baking any bread, you should ensure that the oven is filled with steam for the first 15 minutes of baking. This page shows you how; it really is the secret of golden-brown, crusty loaves.

Remarks

It is best to use a fairly dry goat's cheese, as this will survive the baking better.

If you don't have any walnut oil, use olive oil instead.

And to drink?

To keep with the spirit of this recipe, try to find a wine from Haut-Poitou, such as a Sauvignon.
