Pain d'epices.

Pain d'epices can be translated as "spice-bread". It is a traditional French bread full of flavors and its main ingredients are rye flour, honey and spices. It is very dense and flavorful so one usually eats it by the very thin slice. Some like it by itself while others enjoy it with a bit of butter or jam. I love it with apricot preserves! This bread can be kept (in a dry cool spot) for more than a week and it actually gets better with time, as the flavors meld together.

I followed David Lebovitz' recipe and it came out great!
