Italian Bread I image

This loaf is easy to prepare for the newcomer to bread-making. There is no yeast, and the bread is very dense. Great as a side to pasta and salad.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread came out really dry. Maybe I didn't knead the dough long enough.

Solid recipe. The bread was tasty, but it wasn't anything special.

Easy peasy Italian bread! I'm a beginner baker and this recipe was very straightforward. My bread turned out great and I'm proud to share it with my friends and family.

This recipe is a great base for experimentation. I've added sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and even cheese to the dough. Always turns out delicious.

Disappointed. My bread didn't rise properly and ended up dense and gummy.

5 stars! This is the best Italian bread recipe I've ever tried. It's crusty on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. Perfect for sandwiches, dipping in olive oil, or just eating on its own.

This bread was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some garlic and Parmesan next time.

Followed the recipe to a T, but my bread turned out a bit too dense. Not sure what I did wrong, but the flavor was still good.

This Italian bread was a delightful success! The crust had a wonderful crunch, and the inside was soft and fluffy. I loved the addition of herbs, which gave it a savory flavor. An overall excellent recipe.
