Cuban Bread

Date: 2012/01/13
"I assure you I am not being ugly, but anyone that thinks this is a "traditional cuban bread" recipe has NEVER had real cuban bread. The biggest difference is the lack of shortening. truly authentic or traditional "pan cubano" (cuban bread) uses pork lard as shortening. It is also cooked in a dry oven - not one with a water/steam tray. I am giving you 4 stars because this is certainly a bread recipe and sounds fine. However, this is NOT, by any stretch of the imagination, Cuban Bread."
