Directions

This airy, crusty, loaf is perfect sandwich bread fro tuna fish, peanut butter or possibly lettuce and tomato.
2

If you do not slice it too thick, it will even fit into a low-calorie diet.

Since this recipe has no shortening, the bread will turn stale, after only one day, but it will still make fine toast, especially good for a fried egg sandwich.

Variation I used:Decreased the bread flour to 2 1/2 C and added 1/2 C yellow cornmeal.
5

Added 2 Tablespoons sesame seeds
