A super moist and delicious bread. Bake the bread in a casserole dish, it's crusty on the outside and moist in the inside. You can top the bread with olives, sun-dried tomatoes, roasted peppers or artichoke hearts before baking, and brush with some olive oil infused with herbs. Or just bake it plain, it's delicious itself, and serve it with stew, soup or any main course.
