A moist and chewy loaf like this one makes good peanut butter, tuna, or
fresh ham sandwiches and excellent toast. It goes well with vegetable and
meat soups, especially Scotch broth.

Add all ingredients in the order suggested by your bread machine manual
and process on the basic bread cycle according to the manufacturer’s
directions. Eat warm – but not hot – or cool.

a pastry tube, form a crown of this mixture on rounds
of toast. From the jar of caviar, take a dab to fill

piece of tape so they will be recognized). After the
pieces of meat are cooked, each guest dips the choice
morsel into one of the variety of elegant sauces.
