flour with yeast and remaining ingedients. Pour in tomatoe mix and beat 3
minutes. Gradually add remaining flour, mixing by hand, if necessary, until
it holds together enough to turn out on floured surface. The dough is quite
sticky, and yuou may need to add a little more flour, but not too much, or
you will have a dry bread. Knead about 5 minutes, until dough smooths out,

rest 15 minutes, then shape into 2 loaves, and place in pans. Cover pans
and let rise 45 minutes.Preheat oven to 375 F Bake loaves 10 minutes,
