Great success with the pullman pan and the pain de mie recipe -- picture perfect loaf on the very first try. My compliments on the good instructions for using the pan (I couldn't believe the lid didn't stick) and a very tasty (if a bit indulgent) white bread recipe. I'm looking forward to trying the whole wheat version and the two somewhat leaner pan de mie recipes in Jeffrey Hamelman's A Baker's Book of Techniques and Recipes.
