I've tried multiple bread recipes, but this one is by far my favorite! It has a nice crust and a perfect crumb- chewy yet tender. It slices easily without falling apart. I make a really taste variation where I use extra virgin olive oil instead of vegetable oil, and add in a glove of garlic (mashed with some salt to make a fine paste) and 7-8 basil leaves torn into small pieces. I also brushed the loaves with a little more olive oil before baking. Not only does the final product look great, it tastes great too!

This french bread was amazing! Much lighter than many other recipes I tried. I will try adding spices next time to see how it turns out.

Yammy - this is a great recipe. The Bread tastes sooooo good, you can use it for so many things as side dish BBQ, Breakfast, ...... or make it as a coffecake if you use butter instead oil and fill it with Nut filling... LOVE IT

Turned out fantastic! ... But I halved the recipe, put the sugar in the yeast to proof (seems always turns out better this way), kneaded in my KitchenAid, and brushed the dough with olive oil & melted butter, minced garlic and herbs de'Provence before rolling. Also skipped the cornmeal and baked on floured parchment paper instead, and had to lower the temp 25 and use 2 baking sheets b/c my new oven is so "efficient."

I make this all the time and it's a household favorite. I have to halve the recipe to use my Kitchenaid stand mixer to knead the dough.

Not too difficult, very tasty. I ended up making three loaves because I wanted them to be a little skinnier for subs. The third loaf I spread butter and olive oil with herbs and garlic before I rolled the loaf. It turned out fantastic. The leftover plain bread made excellent French toast a couple days later.

This is the 2nd time that I have made this bread. I could not ask for anything better. I love this bread. It is easy to make. It rises beautifully, and I have added several flavors to the bread. The first time I made it I did the first loaf just as french bread. I did the second loaf as cheddar cheese and jalapeno. The second time, (see photo). I did the first loaf as rolls. I made six rolls. The second loaf I did mixing in chopped sun dried tomatoes and chunks of mozzarella cheese. Yum

My first attempt at making bread (loaves) and they turned out BEAUTIFULLY! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I followed it to a T and the results were phenomenal. I'll be making this often. :)
