The bread’s tender soft texture and subtle sweetness come from duck fat and honey. Pullman bread, or Pain de mie is a type of French sandwich bread traditionally baked in a Pullman loaf pan, which gives it a uniformly rectangular shape. Pain de mie, “bread of crumb” in French, is a fluffy white bread with a tight crumb and very thin crust. If you don't have a pullman loaf pan, which usually features a lid, you can also place a baking sheet over the loaf pan.

  • 360 ml Water, lukewarm
  • 80 g Honey
  • 85 g Duck fat (or butter, softened)
  • 10 g Salt
  • 600 g White bread flour
  • 50 g Rolled oats
  • 12 g Active dried yeast
  1. Place all the ingredients, following liquids-first-then-dry method, into the pan of a bread machine and snap the bread pan into place. Set on the dough cycle. When the program is done, it should form a a nice elastic and smooth ball. If the dough is too moist, add flour, a tablespoon at a time. The same is true if the dough is looking dry and gnarly. Add warm water, a tablespoon at a time.
  2. Turn out the dough and shape into a ball. Place in a lightly greased bowl, cover the bowl and allow the dough to rise until puffy though not necessarily doubled in bulk, about 1- 1 1/2 hours, depending on the warmth of your kitchen. I usually leave the bowl, covered with a plastic film, in the oven with the light on.
  3. Lightly grease a 30x11x8cm pullman pan with butter. Gently deflate the dough, transfer it to a lightly greased work surface, shape it into a 28cm log, and fit it into the pan. Cover the pan with lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow the dough to rise until it's just below the lip of the pan, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  4. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Remove the plastic, and place the cover on the pan. Bake the bread for 35-40 minutes.
  5. Remove bread from the oven and unmold it onto a large wire rack. Cool it top side up about 1 hour to make for easier slicing.

I've never heard of Pain de mie, but it looks terrific! And I can tell for sure, this French sandwich bread looks way much more delicious than American style sandwich bread (which often has quite strange, too soft and fluffy texture). Nicely done!

that has the best looking texture and I bet the sweetness from the honey makes it tender and delicious!

I just adore the uniform nature of the pullman loaf. And the history of the practical stacking makes this loaf intriguing. Looks beautiful. I’ve used a loaf pan with a baking sheet on top but you need to put a fairly heavy weight on top because the rise will push it right off. I used a cast iron pan.

What a beautiful loaf of bread. Homemade and baked bread is the best!

Angie, Very interesting bread recipe! This is one that I've never come across before. I would imagine that the duck fat creates a subtle difference vs. even the best butter. I know that French fries cooked in duck fat is a richer taste than any other I've eaten. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

You always know you will have me hooked on any bread recipe, although I do think I would have to switch the duck fat for butter.

It looks amazing, such a lovely golden colour! :)
