Instead of thanking the priest, the beggar says bitterly: 'You can keep your bread. Workers without jobs are already unhappy enough, we don’t have to let you insult us and treat us like animals—because that’s dog’s bread you have there.'"

It accelerates the maturation of the dough, 'thus making it possible to reduce the length of time needed for breadmaking,' and it increases the tolerance of the pâtons—which rise when they are baked—at little cost, Calvel insists, because 'it very slightly favors the whitening of the crumb, but it has practically no effect on the taste of the loaf.'"
