Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Pan Gallego is a traditional crusty bread originating from Galicia. It is characterized by a soft and springy crumb with many air pockets and a hard crust, depending on the variety. In artisan bakeries, it's made with wheat flour or trigo gallego (Galician wheat), a sourdough starter, salt, and large amount of water. The bread needs long rising times – at least 3 hours – and baking times. There are four types of loaves – the bolo or hogaza , a misshapen round loaf with small cracks on the upper part and often with a topknot; the rosca , an irregular and flat ring of bread; the bola or torta , which is round and flat; and the barra , a baguette-type loaf. The bread is aromatic with an intense wheaty flavor and slightly acidic notes. For the best experience, try it with a cheese called La Tetilla.
