Fool-Proof Basic French Bread

-NPFN03A 2 c Flour

-(Better for Bread is best) 3/4 c Water

1 ts Salt

1 Package yeast (

-I use Fleischmann`s) In the Panasonic, put flour first, then everything but the yeast; put the yeast in the yeast holder; press start (or start timer). Bake on the regular "speed". Perfect everytime! Variations: Add any of the following to the bottom of the measuring cup, then fill up with flour: 1 T dry onion soup mix OR 1 T each of any dried herbs (dill weed, basil, parsley, etc.); OR 2 T grated dry cheese (cheddar, parmesan, romano, etc.) - or anything else you can think of.
