ORANGE-CUMIN BREAD
Cumin is a familiar spice in Mediterranean baking. The strongly aromatic seeds are
harvested from an umbellifer similar to caraway, which has been cultivated since an-
cient times. Cumin seeds act as an unexpected and harmonious foil to the fruity tang of
oranges in this bread. Prepare a grilled longhorn cheddar and tomato sandwich using
slices of this bread, and wash it down with a tall glass of iced tea made from hibiscus
blossoms—such as Red Zinger tea—garnished with wedges of lime. This loaf makes
beautiful, out-of-the-ordinary toast, as the warmth of the toaster brings out the flavor
of the cumin.
