Croatian/Slovenian bread

Add salt and sugar to the cornmeal and pour boiling water over it, then let it cool. Then add all the other ingredients and knead into a smooth dough. Form a ball and let it stay in a warm place for 1 hour. When the dough has doubled in size, knead it again and divide it into two equal pieces. Form two loaves and let it rest for another 20 minutes. Before baking, cut the dough several times and moisten it with a little water. Place the loaf in an oven preheated to 170°C (top/bottom heat) and bake for 1 hour, covered with aluminum foil. Then remove the aluminum foil and bake for another 30 minutes. Remove the loaf from the pan and cover with a damp cloth. We hope you enjoy it.
