How to make it

  • Dissolve the yeast in warm water and honey until foamy.
  • In a large bowl place the flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper, oil eggs and yeast mixture and mix vigorously with a spoon.
  • Then add enough additional flour , stirring until the mixture clings together in a ball.
  • Knead smooth and elastic adding only enough additional flour to prevent sticking.
  • Form dough in a ball.
  • Place in an oiled bowl, turn to coat with oil and cover with a damp cloth and set in a warm place until dough doubles in volume.
  • When double, gently deflate and form in a free form loaf(s ) as desired ( round -oblong etc. ) and place on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal.
  • Slash top of dough in several places.
  • Brush on the glaze.
  • Let rise double in a warm place.
  • Bake in a 350F about 30 minutes or tested done.
  • Cool completely on rack before slicing.
  • A good bread for soups and stews.
  • Note: since this makes a very large loaf, one may want to make 2 loaves and freeze one.
  • Note: This bread doesn't contain much fat and can dry out if not kept well wrapped or eaten in the first day or so.
  • Also good toasted.
