About Bread, Italian
Italian bread is a lean, yeast-leavened loaf with a thin crisp crust and an open, chewy crumb. Fat is minimal, and protein comes in decently for a white bread. The simplicity of the formula, flour, water, yeast, salt, means there is nowhere to hide inferior ingredients, and the result is a bread that works equally well with olive oil, cold cuts, or a simple bowl of soup. Fiber is low, as expected from an unenriched white loaf.
