Usually I buy bread from the store; but here we were, mid week, and no bread. So I started
digging through my massive mound of cookbooks, and hand written recipes, to find just
the right one. This one is a winner; if I do say so myself. Try it out, and tell me what you
think.
Ingredients: 1/4 cup warm water, 3 tbsp yeast, 1/4 sugar, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 cups milk,
2 tsp salt, 6 cups flour - more if necessary.
1. Dissolve yeast in water, and let stand for 10 minutes.
2. Add sugar, oil, and milk. Mix well.
3. Add salt, and gradually add flour until soft dough forms.
4. Knead 8 minutes until stretchy.
5. Covert and let rise 15-20 minutes.
6. Knead on a floured surface, and separate into desired amount of balls.
7. Place on baking sheet 2 inches apart. Cover and let rise 30 minutes.
8. Preheat oven to 350° and bake 15-20 minutes, until browned.
9. Cool completely before storing in a plastic bag.
