   What a delight to prepare this light somewhat yellow loaf. Just the right size for sandwiches if placed in a 5-inch X 9-inch or 10-inch pan. I did have one problem with this bread. I think there may have been a misprint in the amount of water or flour. I followed directions as written and after adding the required 3 cups of semolina flour I had a batter, not a kneadable dough. I had to keep adding a little more flour until I was able to get the consistency I wanted, and even then dough was extremely slack. You might try this recipe using only 1 cup of water and 3 cups of flour and see what you get. That is what I will do next time. I used my KitchenAid Mixer for all of the mixing and most of the kneading.

   "When people think of semolina flour, they usually think of pasta. But semolina, a high-gluten flour made from the hard, coarse endosperm of durum wheat, also makes a lovely loaf of bread. Light golden in color, moist, and of a fine, delicate texture ideal for slicing, this bread recipe is based on one found in Judith and Evan Jones' "The Book of Bread," available in our Baker's Catalogue (as is the semolina flour.)"
