creamy-colored, irregularly aerated crumb

My comment:

"Mie crème" can be the type of flour used for bread baking, but here it seems to indicate either consistency or color. Since the irregular aeration (porosity) describes the consistency, I opted for "crème" being an adjective for the color of the crumb (which is, indeed, cream-colored).
