Thanks for the detailed photos and description. I made the middle class version (it's proofing now) and I almost did the same thing you did when reading the recipe so I can see how easily that happened. How odd that your dough got so hard. Maybe your fridge is too cold. I think the loaves look delicious and the inside looks very much like a croissant. Thanks for the detailed photos and description.

I made the rich and didn't care for it unless it was toasted. I found it flaky/crumbly. Great baking along with you, Susie You did great. I made the rich and didn’t care for it unless it was toasted.

Great baking along with you,

I can imagine a bunch of dark chocolate stuck along with it....I think that's what I'll do if I ever decide to do the Rich Man's version.. Great job! =) Angela Now I know I made the right decision in making the Poor Man’s version…even though your pics look absolutely heavenly!

I'm glad your process pretty much mimicked mine, save for the solid rectangle, mine was still a bit pliable. Maybe due to where we each put it in our respective refrigerators. Even one of my little Têtes got thumped on the head and squashed a bit too. Like you, I'll possibly try the other varieties further down the road. I'm glad I made this but it isn't as screaming good as the bagels or the Artos. Looking forward to your Casatiello! This is lovely.

I made all three (don't ask why), and I preferred the middle-class version. The dough was definitely easier to work with, and I thought it actually tasted better than the Rich Man's version.
