1/3 cup dark rum

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus 2 teaspoons for dusting the pan

2 cups whole wheat flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped

1/2 cup pecans, toasted and roughly chopped

1 1/2 cups plain yogurt

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon milk

3/4 teaspoon anise seeds (optional) (Sesame seeds or rolled oats are nice substitutes, if you're not an anise lover.)

Equipment:

sauce pan

oven

baking paper

baking sheet

mixing bowl

whisk

bowl

knife

toothpicks

wire rack

Cooking instruction summary:

Combine the rum and raisins in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Simmer for 30 seconds, then remove from heat. Cover and allow the raisins to macerate for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight. When youre ready to bake the bread, preheat the oven to 375F. Coat a baking sheet with olive oil and lightly dust it with flour, or line it with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flours, baking soda, salt, and rosemary. Stir in the toasted pecans. In a separate bowl combine the raisins with the rum, the yogurt, and honey. Add the wet ingredients to the dry. Mix until the dough is too stiff to stir. Use your hands to bring it together in the bowl. Add additional yogurt one teaspoon at a time if its too dry. You want a stiff, slightly tacky ball. Turn dough onto a lightly floured board and shape into a round loaf. (Dont over-knead the dough. Too much kneading will produce a tough bread.). Transfer the loaf to the prepared baking sheet. Use a sharp knife to make deep slashes across the top of the loaf, 4-6 cuts about half way through. Brush the top with milk. Sprinkle with seeds or oats if using. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. When you tap the loaf, it will sound hollow. Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature with a generous slather of butter.

VIRUS WARNING**** If you received an e-mail with a subject line of "Badtimes," delete it immediately without reading it! It is the most dangerous E-mail virus yet. It will re-write your hard drive. Not only that, but it will scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will recalibrate your refrigerator's settings so all your ice cream melts and your milk curdles. It will demagnitize the strips on all your credit cards, reprogram your ATM access codes, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD's you try to play. It will give your ex-boy/girlfriend your new phone number. It will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink all your beer and leave your dirty socks on the coffee table when there's company coming over. It will hide your car keys when you are late for work and interfere with your car radio so that you hear only static while stuck in traffic. Badtimes will make you fall in love with a hardened pedophile. It will give you nightmares about circus midgets. It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine, all while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing their hotel rendezvous to your Visa card. Badtimes will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet seat up and leave the hairdryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattress and pillows, it will refill your skim milk with whole. It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve. These are just a few of the signs. BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!
