Why are many crusty breads cooked in long, thin loaves?

Answer:

Crisp-crusted breads are usually baked in loaf pans in order to produce a desirable crust. Sourdough must be mixed for a long time, in order to reduce the stickiness of the dough. Refrigerating a sourdough starter has what effect? It slows fermentation.
