A delicate texture makes this bread absolutely wonderful. I sometimes use the dough to make breadsticks, which I brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder.

This was my first time making bread and it was easy! It turned out great and was delicious! I took the advice from the other reviewers and doubled the recipe and froze the 2nd loaf, also I didnt have any cornmeal on hand so I skipped that and it still turned out great :)

Wonderful bread. Seems silly to make just one loaf so I make a double recipe. Great with Meatballs, or anything you want a good slice of bread with. Only problem with making this is that there are no leftovers!

Instead of using all-purpose flour I used whole wheat flour. I was disappointed with myself, not the recipe, because I cooked it a little too long. The bread fooled me like cookies tend to do, it felt and looked like it needed to be cooked longer but if I just would have pulled it out of the oven when the timer beeped it would have been perfect!

I love this recipe! It looked and tasted as if I had bought it from the store - just better because it's home made!

I made this using my bread maker on the dough cycle and it turned out beautifully. A little more dense than store bought French loaves, but it had a wonderful taste. It made for excellent French Toast the next morning!
