This bread has a beautiful aroma and color, and resists drying out. It is very high in fiber, and actually develops a slightly "cheesy" flavor as several days go by. It is heavenly, toasted with butter and honey. Submitted by Jeffrey Mullen, Millersburg, Ohio Valkyrie BBS (216) Exported from Home Cookin 4.8 (http://www.mountain-software.com) MMMMM
