message: In Tamaulipas and Nuevo León, we know it as bolillo, not as pan francés. Where is it known as pan francés?
French Bread in Mexico is the generic name form to bread made with salted dough instead of a sweet dough which is biscocho (yeasted). The shape and specific combination of flour, salt, water and some times presence or absence of sugar is the base for specific french breads, as bolillo or telera.
But even, the work in the bench is caracteristic for the final bread. Bolillo product while is in process, the dough is afected by the mastery of a baker, an experienced baker can do the slash work be significative to provide a personality to his product: the bolillo could be simply marked or the expression of the interection on yeasted product of mixing forging, shaping,and baking. Every region in Mexico and every big pan frances producer curates the process from start to finish to keep acceptance of loyalty consumers.   
Fench bread is an artisan bread and the posibility of multiple products changing small characteristics is what even today make the mexicans bread, a still now, artisan bread. 
So, bolillo, telera or other types of french bread can make a succesful baker or an unacepted one. Can make fail a buyer or a food shop, whose makes a wrong decision choosing it´s bread. It`s not so simple to ignore whow the process is because we can not understand the process of making or the family of french breads.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.111.13.222 (talk) 03:30, 29 January 2020 (UTC)

message: I just wanted to mention that in the city of Mérida, Yucatán there is a type of bread which is much more like a real French baguette. I can't remember what the local name is. Also, in Guatemala there is a very common type of bread called pan frances which comes in fingers, I think typically made in bars of five fingers. It's very cheap and you can even buy individual fingers. — Hippietrail 23:50, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't know how to do a redirect, but it's also known at bollios.  Also a picture of it would be great.  I've never seen it, but I'm being told by a Latina friend what these are.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ruth E (talk • contribs) 03:17, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Although in some regions people use the bolillo to make tortas, the traditional bread for a torta is called telera.  Telera is more like Italian bread because it is soft.  Bolillo is tough, like rustic artisinal breads.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.147.236.195 (talk) 15:17, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
