THIN crust + SOFT bread + SQUARE pan = You Need to Try This

Here's how to make a Sourdough Pullman Loaf. A pullman loaf is super soft sandwich bread baked in a rectangular pan - so each slices is a perfect square. The bread traces its origins to the Pullman Company, a train company in early 1900s Chicago. The square "Pullman" pan was originally chosen so that bakers could fit more loaves of bread into the oven on their overnight sleeper trains. The rectangular pans ended up producing a delicious white bread with a very thin crust and an ultra soft and fluffy interior. This bread is sometimes called "pain de mie" which is basically an identical type of bread, but from France instead of Chicago. So, yes, France, you made it first... :) #sourdoughpullmanloaf #pullmanloaf #sourdoughpaindemie
