Ingredients:

  • 2 cups warm water
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 1/2 tbsp active dry yeast
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar in the water and stir in the yeast. Let it proof(It'll turn into a big foam. This takes about ten minutes.).
  2. Mix the salt and shortening into the yeast. And add one cup of flour into the bowl at a time.
  3. Knead dough on a floured surface until it's smooth.
  4. Place in well oiled bowl and turn to coat both sides. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk.
  5. Punch down dough, knead and split in two. Shape into loaves. I have no idea if my way is the right way . But I usually make loaves by playing with the dough until it's a smooth ball, push down half of it so it's flat. So basically, right now, it sort of looks like a road leading up to a speed bump. Then i take the flattened dough and wrap it around the speed bump sealing it up by wetting my hand and squeezing the creases. And lightly rolling the log back and forth on the seam. Alright?
  6. Place the loaves into well oiled 9x5 inch loaf pans. Let the dough rise until it's an inch above the pan.
  7. Brush with an egg wash (Egg and water, milk, or cream) and bake for 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
