1 small onion minced, 2 green onions chopped, a handful of chopped basil, 1 minced green chili, 1 tsp dried oregano
The sandwich was made with tomatoes, red onion, basil, and havarti cheese and toasted on the grill.
Lemon Ginger Bread
1 tbsp of lemon zest, 1 tbsp crushed whole black peppercorns, 2 tbsp grated ginger
The dessert bread was toasted on the grill in butter, and then drizzled with honey.
Verdict: There is nothing like a hot snack as soon as someone comes home from hard day's work, not to mention the welcoming smell of freshly baked bread.
That bread looked so good that I couldn't wait to take the picture before I tasted it, so you can see one bite in the corner!
Here is the bread recipe again, from The King Arthur Flour Baker's Companion. Thanks to my brother in law for sharing it with us. I believe he got it off of a flour package originally.
Bread
1 cup water, 2 tbsp butter, 1 large egg, 3 1/4 cups all purpose flour, 1/8 cup sugar, 1 tsp salt, 1 tbsp instant yeast
1. Activate the yeast in the water.
2. Combine all the ingredients and mix and knead them together until you've made a soft, smooth dough.
3. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise until doubled (about 1 hour).
4. Divide the dough into 8 pieces and shape each piece into a flattened ball. Place the buns on the baking sheet, cover, and let rise for 30–40 minutes, until they're quite puffy.
5. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake the buns for 12–15 minutes until they're golden brown. We used a loaf pan from Williams Sonoma.
6. Remove them from the oven and cool them on a rack.

Kanchana,
I recently found your blog and I love it.
I prepared this bread yesterday, since I do not cook with eggs I substituted 2.5 tbsp flax meal mixed with water.I used pyrex bread pan.
The bread came out good, but I had difficult slicing.My slices were thick.
How do you slice the bread?
Texture is so good, I recently food I am Soy allergic, so I cannot eat any store brought bread. Thanks so much for the recipe.
Kanchana
Thanks for an amazing recipe.
I tried this bread recipe by substituting 2.5 tablespoon ground flax seed for egg.
It came out fantastic.
