Place ingredients except cornmeal & egg white in bread
machine pan according to manufacturer's directions.
Process on dough setting.

Sprinkle ungreased cookie sheet with cornmeal. At end
of dough cycle, remove dough from machine; place on a
lightly floured surface. Punch down dough (If dough
is sticky, knead in additional flour before shaping).

Shape dough into baguette-shaped loaf about 12" long.
Place loaf on cornmeal-coated sheet. Cover; let rise
in warm place, 80-85

For 20-25 minutes or until light and doubled in size.

Heat oven to 375ºF/190ºC. With a sharp knife, make
one deep lengthwise slash in top of loaf. Brush loaf
with egg white.

Bake for 25-35 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow
when lightly tapped.

Makes one 12 slice loaf.

NOTE: You can also let the bread machine do the baking
for you - but the loaf won't look "rustic". It will, of
course, taste just as good. - UDD
