I use a soufflé dish to bake the bread for a nice round loaf.

 
Hi Michael!

Great to "see" you!

This sounds awesome. I baked a version of Dill Bread when I first got my KA stand mixer, back in the early 90s. The recipe was in the booklet that came with the mixer. It was so good!

I'm going to try this version, and I like your suggestion for using the souffle pan. Round slices for a ham sandwich sounds delicious!
