This is from the Bouchon cookbook, cranberry-currant and walnut bread. Keller suggests either/or, but I always combine them. Here I used a combination of dried cherries and raisins with the walnuts. Made as one large boule instead of two batards. (There was a bit more than one kilo of dough.) I've made this before, it always turns out nicely. (Although I increase the salt.) Very good with cream cheese, even better with brie.
