Herbed Batter Bread
1/4 cup Skim milk powder
1 cup Lukewarm water
1 tbsp Honey
1 1/2 tsp Salt
1 cup Lukewarm water
4 tsp Dry yeast
3 tbsp Chopped parsley
2 tbsp Chopped fresh basil or 1
-tsp. dried, crushed basil
1 tbsp Freshly-snipped chives
1 tsp Dried, crushed oregano
1/2 tsp Fresh chopped thyme or 1/4
-tsp. dried thyme leaves
1/2 tsp Freshly snipped marjoram or
-1/4 tsp. dried
4 1/2 cup Rye flour
2 tbsp Oil


Combine skim milk powder and warm water in a small bowl, using a wire
whisk. Add honey and salt. In a larger mixing bowl, place the
lukewarm water and sprinkle the yeast over the top, until dissolved.
Add the milk mixture to the dissolved yeast. Stir in the fresh and
dried herbs. Add two cups of rye flour. Beat for 2 minutes on medium
speed of electric mixer, scraping sides of bowl frequently; or beat
vigorously with a wooden spoon, about 200 strokes, until batter looks
satiny. Using a wooden spoon, blend in the additional two and 1/2
cups of rye flour.

Scrape batter from sides of bowl. Cover with a clean towel and set
in a warm place (85) away from drafts, to rise until light and
doubled in size--about 45 to 50 minutes. (Do not allow to over rise).
Stir the batter down. Turn into a well-oiled one and one-half quart
casserole or souffle dish (batter will be sticky. Smooth out top of
loaf by flouring hand and patting into shape.) Again, allow to rise
in a warm place, covered for 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 F.

Place in preheated oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until bread
is golden brown. Remove from oven and brush top of bread lightly
with oil. Cool for 10 minutes. Turn bread out onto wire rack to cool.
Yield: One round loaf

A few tips on healthy eating

If you wish to lose weight and also improve your overall well-being, among other things you really should eat a carefully configured healthy dietary regime. Theoretically, this should incorporate 5 helpings of fruit and vegetables each day and require the correct combination of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.

In planning a dietary regime, you have to also attempt to cut down your ingestion of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.

At the start of a diet, people far too often direct your attention to department store and well known food items sold as 'low fat'. To do this is most certainly a miscalculation, as an item may be significantly reduced in fat, but nevertheless far too high in carbs.

Learn to recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. Every now and then at some stage in a busy afternoon, you guess you need a snack but really you might want a healthy drink of water or squash. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are somewhat similar, albeit one leads to bad health and the other one leads to no damage.

Rather than dwelling on the many unhealthy foods that you ought to ban from your diet, concentrate on the healthy foods which you are able to add to your weight loss program. If you are able to insert some nutritious pulses and vegetables into your meal plan, you'll soon find that you feel more satisfied and have a far reduced probability of being seduced by those unwholesome mid-morning sweets and chocolate bars.
