This is a good bread and it is pretty easy and quick as yeast breads go. We don't have a bread machine, so DH kneaded it by hand. Stiff dough and uniform but limited rising resulted from minimal liquid and heavy salt, both of which slow the yeast. We might be tempted to change both, but suspect that the dense, soft bread that results is the desired ethnic character of the recipe. We served wedges with shrimp scampi, then made a hearty sandwich by slicing half the remaining loaf flatwise and stuffing it with meat, cheese, and mayo. The garlic topping spread its fragrance throughout the house when baking. Made for ZWT4.
