Directions
Italian Bread, This is a versatile recipe that makes a lovely loaf of bread. It can also be made into rolls instead of loaves, and the addition of roasted garlic or spices makes it a wonderful taste treat. Makes 2 loaves or 6 rolls, Is it correct that this recipe does not require a first rising?, This recipe was by far, the best Italian bread recipe i’ve ever made. It was also the easiest. I was a bit skeptical about not proofing the yeast, but wow, just wow! Super easy and super delicious. Next time I may try making one of the loaves in a bread pan. Would appreciate the feedback if you have tried that. Thank you Dee. This will definitely be weekly fare in this house.
