It would be a perfect loaf to make a turkey sandwich with leftover Thankgsiving turkey!!

You inspired me to try making my loaf with pecans and 1/2 whole wheat flour instead of plain bread flour. <br /><br />Oh, and while I suspect you may not *always* be right, anyone who doesn't think cranberry sauce can kick a sandwich up a notch is INSANE. It's totally yummy on sourdough with some brie cheese and greens. (And while I don't eat meat, I'm still always envious of people who can make a smoked turkey, cranberry sauce, and stuffing sandwich. Yum!)Adam Potthasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00686426103984188017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073609469473253898.post-91496579549684814032011-03-18T08:39:07.067-07:002011-03-18T08:39:07.067-07:00I am excited to see that we will be working on som...I am excited to see that we will be working on some regular breads soon. I prefer pretty lean breads, so really am looking forward to it. <br /><br />Pickled stringbeans sound really good right now, although I love anything that is pickled. I broke into my pickled eggs the other day. Nummy, that was a nice treat!<br /><br />I think it was probably the publisher that chose to simply put them in alphabetic order. I've thought many times that Peter Reinhart should put together a baking order list, just for this challenge. I would like to see it in order of difficulty to make, skill needed.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05844823685737127151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073609469473253898.post-41841101924253096562011-03-18T08:28:59.221-07:002011-03-18T08:28:59.221-07:00Joanne, what a great idea to make a sandwich loaf!...Joanne, what a great idea to make a sandwich loaf!Braided loaves don't make good sandwich type slices.And anything a person likes the flavor of belongs in the sandwich!I had mde hot n spicy pickled stringbeans last year,and are great rolled in with other fillings on flat bread! <br />I have not made this recipe as yet and will take your advice and soak the cranberries overnight.Other breads I have made call for an overnight soak also.Sometimes in some brandy!<br /> The photos make one want to do the bread NOW!They look soo delicious!looking back at the recipes,wondering if it would have been better to group them according to time of year best made,rather than in order.Seems a bit strange making 'Holidy Breads' now.Jim Biscardihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05178972652687615083noreply@blogger.com
