Italian Easter Bread (adapted from Taste of Home)
*The original recipe calls for raisins, but I used mixed dried fruit with cherries and blueberries*
2 pkgs active dry yeast (4 1/2 tsp)
3 Tbsp warm water
1 1/3 cup warm milk
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup butter, room temperature
1 1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
3 tsp anise extract
6 1/2 cup flour
2/3 cup raisins or dried mixed fruit
1 egg white, beaten
1 Tbsp water
1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add milk, sugar, butter, and salt. Mix well. Let set for 5 minutes.
2. Add eggs, extract, and 2 cups of flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in remaining flour slowly to form a soft dough.
3. Use dough hook to knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turning the dough to also grease the top. Cover with towel and let rise for 1 hour, until doubled.
4. Punch down dough and turn on to a lightly floured surface.Sprinkle with raisins or dried fruit and knead in. Divide dough in half to make 2 loaves. Cut each loaf in to 3 pieces and roll in to 12-14 inch ropes. Braid and seal edges. Place on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise 45 minutes.
5. Whisk egg white and water, brush over dough. Bake at 325 for 45-60 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool on wire racks.
Enjoy!

"This sandwich
made with sliced roast beef and provolone cheese is a crowd pleaser. The
flavor is so rich, no one will know it only took 15 minutes to put
together."
Ingredients:
1 (10.5 ounce) can beef consomme
1 cup water
1 pound thinly sliced deli roast beef
|
8 slices provolone cheese
4 hoagie rolls, split lengthwise
|
Directions:
| 1. | Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Open the hoagie rolls and lay out on a baking sheet. |
| 2. | Heat beef consomme and water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat to make a rich beef broth. Place the roast beef in the broth and warm for 3 minutes. Arrange the meat on the hoagie rolls and top each roll with 2 slices of provolone. |
| 3. | Bake the sandwiches in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese just begins to melt. Serve the sandwiches with small bowls of the warm broth for dipping. |
