dkb recipe #2: barbara's favorite sandwich

I like avocado, tomato, bean sprouts and mustard on toasted 21 grain but
that's pretty ordinary. I'd love to hear other fun combos to put
between two slices of DKB.

Dear Dave,

Last night, my husband had dinner ready as he always does on Wednesday nights because I work until late. He had made my absolute favorite dinner that he calls

Dave's Killer Tuna Melt (Makes 2-3 Melts)

Here is the recipe: 2 cans tuna in water, well drained and add mayonnaise to taste. 1/2 white onion diced and mixed into tuna. 1 Tomato 1 Small can of pineapple well drained. 2-3 Slices of Dave's Killer Bread (Toasted)Blues is our favorite White Cheese (Havarti, Swiss or Extra Sharp Cheddar) First place tuna mixed with mayo and onion on top of Dave's Killer Bread that has been toasted. Next spread a layer of pineapple on top of the tuna with a slice of tomato. Add a few thin onion rings if desired and add your favorite cheese on top. Set oven on broil and place your rack in the center of the oven. Place your melt into the oven until cheese is completely melted over your tasty creation that should take about one or two minutes!
Dave if you have any questions about the recipe, feel free to contact my husband through his website at http://www.danlarart.com/
My own website is http://www.gentledoctors.com/
and my name is Veronica Esagui.

Dr. Veronica,

I re-visited your web page to refresh my memory about your work. It’s very impressive, of course. I am honored that you have chosen my bread for your book. I would also like to ask if you might offer your favorite serving suggestion for my bread for a new feature in my newsletter and blog.
For example, my very favorite thing to eat is mozzarella cheese, thinly-sliced tomatoes, and mayo on Good Seed Bread. I’m a simple guy, when it comes to food!


Hi Dave,
It was nice talking to you today, my husband and I love your bread and as i promised this is what I am adding on to my book about your awsome bread!
Bread
My favorite bread is Dave’s Killer Bread easily found in the health aisle at most grocery stores. Visit http://www.daveskillerbread.com/ to find out more about it. It keeps well in the freezer and it’s already sliced and ready for the toaster. I like it plain and so does my two-year-old granddaughter Rilee. It’s also great with cheese, jam and/or peanut or almond butter with a hint of honey, a real tasty treat. A glass of juice or milk, along with it, is perfect until dinner time.

PS. Like I said on the phone I am a chiropractor and I have had great success with treating scoliosis but I know that health is more than just getting adjusted, and nutrition plays an important role. This being the reason I picked on your bread, thanks for allowing me to use your brand name bread in the health chapter of the book. It's called The Scoliosis Resource Book for Management and Strenghtening of the Spine. My intent is to be distributed nationwide to schools and chiropractic offices by January of 2008. Take care and stay well. Dr. Veronica

all they had to do was ask...


Last Wednesday, Willamette Week included me and my bread in their yearly Best of Portland issue, dubbing me "Best Bada-Bing Baker". It's always nice to be noticed, of course. Only problem was next day the editor was on AM Northwest, and what he said was, at best, inaccurate.




Just to set the record straight: I am not, nor have I ever been, a killer. No offense, Byron--but the National Enquirer is more credible than your magazine to me now.

the killer blues bus

One of my latest offerings is the Blues Bus, a loaf of Blues Bread (the original "killer" bread) that is longer and narrower which means smaller (and more) slices.

Here is my buddy Ryan Alexander-Tanner's

yeast fact

Aloha Dave,
My friend and I were wondering what brand of yeast you use in your bread. We are both allergic to potato, and Red Star Yeast is the only potato free yeast we've found. We would love to eat your bread, if it is potato free.
Cheers,
Molly

Sorry Molly...I wasn't aware of that. It seems like we can never find an ingredient that pleases everyone, and yeast is no exception. We use saf-instant yeast in all of the breads.
