bread

Made bread again yesterday. The loaf was a good deal firmer before it went into the loaf pan, and I baked it with a pan of water in the oven to provide humidity. But more or less the same thing happened:



The hump is somewhat smaller and more symmetrical, but why is it there at all? I've baked hundreds of loaves of bread in my life, and this hasn't been a frequent occurrence.

The previous batch had a region in the middle of the loaf (under the hump) that never cooked adequately, so I threw out the middle of the loaf. Haven't tasted this loaf yet.
