CARDAMOM TEA BREAD
Each slice of this breakfast bread is flecked throughout with bits of cardamom, often
an underused sweet spice. Native to the Malabar Coast of India, cardamom is the fa-
vorite spice of the chilly Scandinavian countries. The papery pod holds a few hard
black seeds that can be crushed with a rolling pin or with a mortar and pestle, al-
though cardamom is available already ground. This is another bread that is good
toasted the day after baking and spread with raspberry jam.

Place the ingredients in the pan according to the order in the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions. Set the crust for dark, if your machine offers crust control for this setting,
and program for the Quick Bread/Cake cycle; press Start. The batter will be thick
and smooth. When the machine beeps at the end of the cycle, check the loaf for
doneness. The bread is done when it shrinks slightly from the sides of the pan, the
sides are dark brown, and the top is firm to a gentle pressure when touched with
your finger. A toothpick or metal skewer will come out clean when inserted into
the center of the bread.
