SusanFNP of www.wildyeastblog.com fame posted a photo of her "Semolina bread with fennel, currants and pine nuts" on TFL in November, 2007. She provided a link to the recipe on her Wild Yeast blog. I immediately added this bread to my "to bake list." Well, my wife could tell you, I seldom throw out anything, and that includes my to do lists. Sometimes it takes me a little while to get around to a particular item, and today I got around to baking this bread.
Mine didn't turn out as pretty as Susan's, but this is a delicious bread. The combination of flavors and textures is wonderful - The contrasting sweet currents and savory fennel seeds and the soft crumb and chewy pine nuts and currents. Wonderful bread.
This is snacking bread. I ate a couple slices while I was making dinner and could have finished the loaf right then and there. Yummy!

I love fennel, currants, and pine nuts. I have multiple "to do" lists too, and grocery lists as well. --Pamela
My mother, who was the most organized person I have ever known - without being OCD-, used to literally keep a list of her lists. But that was just when she was planning a social event.
