Bread-Bakers v103.n007.21

Sandy in Maryland asked for some bread ideas for her sisters exchange 
student from Germany.

The "little breads" eaten at breakfast are probably nice crispy crusted 
hard rolls.  They were served all over southern Europe when we 
visited.  Also Kaiser rolls and something like St Francis Rolls  as they 
were called in San Francisco in the 40's.  That is just a hard roll made 
with bread flour and water, maybe a beaten egg white.

The black bread could be a version of the Fuenfkornbrot which was posted 
not too long ago.  It also has sunflower seeds.  I too miss that and am 
only second generation German.  Gets to you, those good flavors. The black 
bread is usually a sourdough.

Hope this helps,
