Is this what makes it a miche?
Probably made most famous by Parisian baker Poilâne the miche can be defined as a very large rustic sourdough bread, usually a round loaf made from a natural leavening that also has a high percentage of whole wheat flour in it.
So how big does it have to be?
From my little experience it is about a 2 1/2 # loaf, it is traditionally cut in half and quartered to share. This formula has rye and wheat, a little white. Takes 2 days and needs a stiff starter. It is very nice loaf.
Looks great! That must damn near fill the dutch oven...
