So this was made tonight with the that looks like the right amount measurement method! :)  I used a four braid this time on th bread, rather than the three braid of last time. This was not all we had for dinner....it complimented the breaded and baked tilapia, baked russet slices with onion and feta and EVOO, salad from our veggies, and a fruit salad of oranges, kiwi, and strawberries. I am stuffed.

We tried Canola Oil first, because I had some in the cabinet that I wanted to get rid of... We filled the shell with the canola oil...I did steady it using a box lid from a jewelry gift box. W
