ITALIAN PEASANT BREAD
This is one of my granddaughter's favorite. It is wonderful fresh from the oven and served with spaghetti or with a hearty soup (see some of my soups). Slather it with butter for a high calorie treat. It smells soooo good baking. The best part is you don't have to shape the loaves. Just mold them and put them on a baking sheet free form. If they look irregular that is O.K.

Steps:
- Dissolve the yeast in the warm water.
- Add the 4 cups flour (this can be done by hand and mixed well or in the mixer using a bread hook).

- Knead for 15 minutes, or if you are using a bread hook, beat for 5 minutes.

- Place dough on a slightly floured counter and cover with a large bowl.
- Rise 1-2 hours till double; punch down and rise again for 1 1/2 hours.
- Punch down and mold into 2-3 loaves--DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE SHAPE.
- Place on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal.
- Rise again.
- Bake in upper third of your oven--putting a small pan of water on the bottom of the oven for a good crust (you can do this without the water too).
- Bake 425-450 degree oven for 25 minutes.
- Watch and if it is getting too brown, cover them with foil.

ITALIAN BREAD APPETIZER
I got this recipe from a coworker about 15 years ago. It was xeroxed from a magazine but I don't know what the magazine was. This makes a beautiful braided loaf, and the filling ingredients can be switched out with whatever suits your fancy.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan cook oil and garlic together over medium-low heat, stirring almost constantly, 2 to 3 minutes, until garlic is golden and fragrant. Discard garlic and set aside saucepan of garlic-flavored oil.
- On lightly floured surface stretch and roll dough into 12" square; place on lightly greased baking sheet and brush with reserved garlic-flavored oil. Sprinkle evenly with salami and cheese. Arrange roasted peppers and green onions down center of dough, leaving a 1" border at each end and a 3" border on each side.
- Use a knife or scissors to make eight 3" cuts into dough along both sides of the filling. Bring dough strips up across filling at an angle, alternating sides to give a braided effect. Pinch dough at bottom and top to seal in filling.
- Brush braid with egg mixture; sprinkle evenly with poppy seeds. Set aside to rise in a warm, draft-free location 30 to 45 minutes, until puffy. (If you're using wheat bread, rising time may be longer.).
- Heat oven to 350°F Bake 35 minutes or until golden. Immediately remove bread from baking sheet and cool 5 minutes on wire rack. Cut into 16 slices and serve warm or at room temperature.

FRENCH PEASANT BREAD
This is a really easy bread to make, and tastes amazing! Try this and you will never buy french bread again! I got recipe from a cooking group and it was submitted by Laura H. Thanks for the recipe! I do not use the cornmeal because I hate cornmeal, but to each their own.

- Cut the bread on a slight bias into ½-inch thick slices or ¾-inch for thicker pieces. There should be between 12 to 24 slices depending on the thickness and length of the loaf.
- Bake until the surface is lightly browned, about 5 minutes per side. You still want a soft chew in the center of the bread and not be completely dried out. Transfer toasted bread to a wire rack.
