TAPENADE BREAD (A B M)

Tapenade Bread (A B M) image

Based on a delicious and savory recipe from Madge Rosenberg's wonderful cookbook, The Best Bread Machine Cookbook Ever - Ethnic Breads. She says, "Tapenade is a coarse puree of olives, anchovies, and garlic that can fill and flavor eggs, pasta, or beans or be spread on toast. With the bread machine, the tapenade is incorporated into the bread, which can be toasted and used as a base for hors d'oeuvres. Since Tapenade Bread is garlicky, top it very simply with mild goat or cottage cheese or with hard-cooked eggs or cold meat." The default measurements are for a small 1 pound loaf; I have placed measurements for a large 1 ½ pound loaf in parentheses. In addition to a bread machine, this recipe requires a food processor. I estimated a 4 hour bread cycle, although your machine might be quicker! (I also took the liberty of correcting the 1 ½ pound measurement for sugar from 3 tablespoons to 3 teaspoons.)
