Grocery List
  • 2 c. warm water
  • ⅓ c. sugar
  • 1½ T. yeast
  • 6 c. flour
  • 1½ tsp. salt
  • ¼ c. butter
  • Extra butter or oil
Here's how...
  1. Into two cups of water that is quite warm (110-120 degrees) add sugar and yeast. Let dissolve 5 minutes or until yeast is foamy. In a mixer bowl, combine salt, melted butter and 3 c. of the flour. Add the foamy yeast mixture and mix and then up to 3 c. flour until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Let mix for 5 minutes. If mixing by hand knead on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. Coat the dough in oil or butter, and place in a buttered bowl and cover with a clean dishtowel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. After an hour, punch the dough down. Form the dough into two loaf shapes and place in two buttered loaf pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size again. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes and golden brown and makes a hollow sounds when you knock on it. Brush the tops with butter and move to a cooling rack after 10 minutes.
