     Yield: 1 Loaf

-------------------------------1 1/2 LB. LOAF-------------------------------
 1 1/4 c  Water
 3 3/4 c  Bread flour
   3/4 ts Salt
     1 ts Active dry yeast
          Cornmeal
     1    Slightly beaten egg white
     1 tb Water

 Add the first 4 ingredients to the machine according to the manufacturer's
 directions. Select dough setting.

 When the cycle is finished,remove dough from the machine.
 Let dough rest 10 minutes.

 On a lightly floured surface divide dough in half and
 foll each half into a 10x8-inch rectangle. Roll up jekly-roll
 style, starting from one of the long sides; seal well. Pinch and pull
 ends to a taper.

 Place seam side down on a greased baking sheet sprinkled with
 cornmeal.

 Combine egg white and water; brush some of it over top of loaves.

 of each loaf.

 Bake in a 375 F. oven for 20 minutes. Brush again with remaining
 egg white and water mixture. Continue baking for 12-15 minutes or
 until bread sounds hollow when tapped with you fingers.

 Remove from baking sheet; cool.
