LOU’S DAILY BREAD
This is my food writer friend Lou Pappas’s house bread. She is an avid baker, so it
must be good since she makes it on a regular basis. She uses the whey drained off
homemade yogurt cheese for the liquid; I have substituted nonfat milk, which is known
as fat-free milk these days. Take care to remove only the zest—the colored part of the
skin—from the orange. This is where the flavorful oil is; the white pith is quite bitter. I
suggest a fine or medium grind of stone-ground whole wheat flour for this bread.
