ITALIAN BREAD (BREAD MACHINE)
I love this recipe because it is very quick and easy. The ingredients for this recipe are always in most peoples houses. I've been known to whip up a loaf in the morning when I realized I was out of bread for school lunches. I don't always use the egg white in the recipe unless you want a crispy crust. Most times I just brush on butter after if comes out of the oven. This recipe is tried and true and loved by all in my circle of family and friends; enjoy. Notes: Easy and with no milk. I have also added Parmesan, thyme, garlic after the flour and salt just to give it an added flavor change every now and then. Serving Ideas: Wonderful w/ pastas or stews.

ITALIAN PARMESAN BREAD FOR BREAD MACHINE
I've been making this bread for years without measuring, and finally decided to write it down. My most requested bread from my bread-lovin' son. Makes the house smell divine!! You can easily increase the amounts of seasonings to your taste. (NOTE: Many people seem to be needing to add extra water, so I'm adding an adjustment to the recipe.)

ITALIAN PEASANT BREAD FOR BREAD MACHINE
Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, this bread flecked with herbs, is an almost identical version to the bread served at the popular restaurant Ramano's Macoroni Grill. I came across the recipe after becoming addicted to their bread and craving it constantly (thanks to Google search and Cafe Michele). It's a great bread to tear and dip in flavored olive oils and to serve with your best Italian pasta dishes, or soups.

Steps:
- Place ingredients, according to manufacturer's directions into your bread machine.
- (some call for all liquids, or all dry ingredients first, so know your machine) Set machine to "dough cycle" and wait. (This takes most machines about an hour and a half for a full cycle).
- Remove from machine when cycle is complete and place on a lightly greased baking sheet.
- Shape dough by hand, into a rectangular mound, spreading kind of thin, maybe an inch or two of thickness.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled in size. (This is a good time to go ahead and turn the oven on to preheat and help warm the kitchen).
- Brush with a little olive oil, sprinkle with rosemary and salt if desired. (This is the way its done at Macaroni Grill).
- Bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until crust is golden and crispy. Bread is meant to be a flatter shape and not a high rising bread.
- Have everyone tear their pieces of bread with their hands,and serve with olive oil flavored with fresh ground pepper.

Tips:
- Read your bread machine's manual carefully. Different models have different features and settings, so it's important to know how to use your machine properly before you start baking.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will directly affect the quality of your bread. Make sure to use fresh flour, yeast, and other ingredients.
- Measure your ingredients accurately. Using the wrong amount of ingredients can result in bread that is too dense, too dry, or too sweet. Be sure to measure your ingredients carefully, using a kitchen scale if possible.
- Don't overfill the bread machine. Overfilling the bread machine can prevent the bread from rising properly. Fill the bread machine no more than two-thirds full.
- Check the bread during the baking cycle. Depending on your bread machine, you may need to check the bread during the baking cycle to make sure it is baking properly. If the bread is browning too quickly, you can lower the baking temperature.
- Let the bread cool before slicing. Once the bread is baked, let it cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This will help the bread to set and prevent it from crumbling.

With a little practice, you can use your bread machine to make delicious, homemade bread that is perfect for any occasion.
