To Complain or Not To Complain

by Mark R. Vogel

Unfortunately the answers to these questions return us to the subjectivity and capriciousness of the individual person's character. When the situation is not a no-brainer because it doesn't lie at one extreme or the other, we must then decide what we are...

Crusty Cuban

One observation about this making this bread: I made it the first couple of times using King Arthur White Unbleached Bread Flour and the results were really good; crusty and only a little misshapen (which didn't disturb me a bit!). The second time, I used what I had on hand, which was King Arthur's All-Purpose Unbleached White Flour - not Bread Flour - and the loaf came out only slightly less crusty but with a perfect shape! And very good, too. I made 3 loaves this way and the results were consistent. Also, I read on another website that Cuban Bread does not hold up well, i.e. it gets stale quickly and to eat it right away. I have not found that to be the case.
