Today I made the best sandwich bread. I have been experimenting with different recipes since purchasing my bread machine. I have tried recipes that came with the bread machine as well as some that are online. Most have been good, but a little on the dry side. Today I adapted a recipe from the Zojirushi book that came the bread machine. I used a basic half wheat and half white flour recipe. I decided to add potatoes to try to make the texture of the bread softer. It worked wonderfully. The bread is delicious.
I made sandwiches with the bread for dinner tonight. I made pannini sandwiches with Tofurky Smoked Turkey flavor with lettuce, tomato, onions and pickles. And I used my favorite mayonnaise which is Spectrum Light Canola Mayonnaise. I will try to freeze the rest of the loaf and will let you know if the texture is still the same after it thaws.
