Boule Bread  
A term that refers more to the shape of the bread than any particular type. The French word boule means ball or round, so “boule” may be used to describe a variety of breads that all have the boule shape in common. A typical French boule is a hearty, country bread with a chewy crust, an open crumb, and a moderately soft interior and is baked in many different sizes. It is most often prepared with white bread flour made into a similar type of dough used for a French baguette, however a variety of flours and other ingredients can be used.
