Rustic Bread 1st part

SANDY'S RUSTIC LOAF

Sandy made this bread for Judy's luncheon and it was so good.

For Large (1 ½ to 2-pound) Machine

The Sponge (begin the night before)

1 cup water, chlorine-free

¼ teaspoon instant yeast

1 ¼ cups bread machine flour

2 tablespoons whole wheat or pumpernickel flour

1 tablespoon yellow cornmeal

1 tablespoon semolina flour

Place the ingredients in the pan of your bread machine and program for Manual or Dough. Press start. After several minutes, or once the dough is fully mixed—it’ll look like thick pudding—cancel the machine.

The Next Day (or about 8 hours later) stir down the sponge. Continue to make the dough by adding the following:

1 cup water, chlorine-free

1 tablespoon kosher salt

1 tablespoon sugar

¼ teaspoon instant yeast

3 ½ cups bread machine flour
