Amish White Bread
9/16/09 This bread is sooo delicious! I made it exact to the recipe, although I did brush some egg wash over the top (1 egg mixed with 2T water) prior to baking which made a nice shiny crust. It was sweeter than white bread, but still very good. Next time I might experiment with the sugar just for fun, and possibly substitute some wheat flour or even try all-purpose flour. For the 2nd rise I let it rise 45 minutes. I don't know why some reviewers say this bread is dense because I did not think so at all. Maybe they usually eat Wonder bread or something. This is the first bread in years that I've made start to finish totally by hand - I usually use my bread machine, if not for the whole recipe then at least through the first rise. This recipe is SO easy. Thank you! It's definitely going into my collection for our enjoyment for many years to come! - - - - - 11/11/09 I tried this again today with only 1/3 cup sugar and it was a bit less sweet, but just as yummy! I love it both ways. It's delicious made as a sandwich with ham and honey mustard. Next time I'm going to try making it into cinnamon bread. :)

Five Spice Muffins
Well, I was really hoping I'd *love* these but unfortunately I didn't. They were just OK. I followed the recipe as written except I did add 1/2 cup raisins. They weren't exactly 'dry' but weren't as moist as I would have liked them. I filled 24 muffin cups and only baked them for 18 minutes which was enough. Keep in mind that sunflower seeds have a very distinct flavor; I've never used them in muffins and I didn't quite like the strong flavor in a muffin. I would have preferred walnuts or pecans. I won't make these again as there are other recipes that we love better (hint: banana crumb muffins!!).

Teriyaki Sauce
I found this awesome recipe a few months back and finally had to rate it. I've made it over and over again. It's so easy to make since I always have all the ingredients on hand and it's delicious as well! I always have some in the fridge since we use it often.
