Pain de mie. This pain de mie is sublime when heavily toasted and topped with a good margin of butter. This style of bread is sometimes called a "Pullman Loaf," or simply just "sandwich bread," but they all have the same undeniable characteristics: a soft and minimal crust, a slightly sweet flavor, warmth and depth from just enough butter in the dough, and an ethereally light interior. Pain de mie is a fine-textured, moist bread baked in a special lidded pan.
The name Pain de Mie comes from the French word pain, which means bread, and la mie a term that refers to the soft part of the bread, or the crumb.
This is because Pain de Mie is different from other French breads; its crumb is finer, as compared to the coarser crumbs found in alternatives like baguettes.
This recipe comes from King Arthur.

I made minor changes to reflect more generic ingredients. The lid ensures that the baking bread won't expand too much, keeping it very close-grained-and thus totally non-crumbly, and easy to slice. So, pain de mie loosely translated means a loaf of bread with no crust — and that's pretty much what it is! You'll need a pain de mie pan (usually called a pullman loaf pan).

This is a sturdy bread pan that is a little thinner and longer than normal and has a top that slides on. Pain de mie is a French sandwich bread with four square corners baked in a Pullman loaf pan. This simple, easy and effortless recipe for Pullman sandwich bread makes a light and fluffy loaf of bread with perfect four square corners, delicate soft texture, soft crumb and delicious flavor that melts in the mouth. Pain de Mie is sold in every French supermarket and grocery store, sliced and packaged. And seeing these industrial-like, pre-packaged and sliced soft white breads is a vision that never really appealed to me (I much preferred a trip to my neighborhood bakery for a freshly baked, crusty baguette).
