Italian Herb Bread
alt.bread.recipes/Ed. B (1999)

This is from the book that came with my bread machine (Zojirushi). It makes a 1 1/2 pound loaf.

1 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon basil
3 1/2 cups bread flour
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast

Place ingredients into pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select basic white bread setting.

I usually use 1 tablespoon Basil instead of the teaspoon called for. Other herbs can be used in place of the basil.
