Semolina Bread

Here is another bread which I have baked a couple of
times. This bread never fails you and is very easy to whip up. You add
everything together, knead it, allow it to rise, bake it and you have a lovely
sandwich loaf. This recipe calls for semolina flour, and since it is not available
in Chennai, I decided to use the finest semolina available here. Even with this
substitution the bread baked perfectly.
