The perfect loaf to make those delicate oblong [[aperitif]] sandwiches, the sort you see in Paris carefully wrapped in wax paper to keep the bread soft and moist, with the crusts banished so a sliver of filling peeks out. Or a bread and butter pudding groggy with [[armagnac]] and [[prunes]]. Or just toasted in the morning with a little treacly-dark Oxford marmalade.

This recipe is suitable for a standard [[Breadmaker|breadmaker]], specifically the [[Panasonic SD253]] and similar models.

It will almost certainly work for most [[Breadmakers|breadmakers]] and is worth trying if you have lost your instruction book!
