Made for the FYC Tag Game & this bread is at least a tie for my personal #1 fave of the ABM genre. I made just 1 change & subbed poppy seeds for the mustard seeds I did not have. DH & I both love homemade bread, but I'm a yeast-phobe & rely on my ABM to help me get things right. Homemade bread is most often about the texture & this bread has a lovely dense texture that holds up well even w/a simple, but aggressive slather of butter & will I'm sure be excellent toasted. However, the biggest surprise for me was the excellent standout flavor. Everything works in this bread & it rivals any bakery bread I have ever tasted. This is a great recipe, Maito, & will be repeated often. Thx for sharing it w/us. :-)

Lovely bread. I made the dough in the bread machine this morning and then shaped and baked it into burger sized sandwich buns. Everything went great and I have delicious buns that will enhance everything from burgers to egg salad. Marvelous recipe.

Awesome! Wonderful! Um, did I mention I liked this? Great bread, even better toasted for breakfast. I made this to go with recipe#306936. I liked the bread a lot better! Made for ZWT4 Thank you, Maito!

ZWT4: Excellent! We used our 2 hr Insta-bread cycle and it turned out perfect! I made the bread using these exact measurements and ingredients for our 2lb bread loaf!!

I pulled the dough out after the dough cycle on the ABM and baked in the oven. I formed a loose round shape to use for Recipe #269017. I enjoyed the flavor of the bread and loved all of the seeds. I had sprinkled the top with more sesame seeds before baking. Made for ZWT4.
