\item [Bulk Fermentation] The initial rising period after mixing all the ingredients.
The dough is typically allowed to rise until it increases to a certain volume. The
volume of increase depends on the flour that is used. When baking with wheat flour
the gluten amount of the flour is the deciding factor. The more gluten your flour has

\item [Pullman Loaf] A type of bread loaf characterized by its perfectly rectangular
shape and soft, fine crumb. It is baked in a special lidded pan called a Pullman pan
or pain de mie pan. The lid ensures that the bread rises in a perfectly straight
shape, without the domed top characteristic of other bread loaves. Pullman loaves are
often sliced very thin and are popular for making sandwiches.
