1 cup flour; add yeast and 2 more cups flour; beat with a wooden spoon
until batter is smooth and elastic; stir in 1 1/2 cups more flour, then

floured board and knead for 2 minutes, about 100 strokes; shape dough into
a ball and put it in a bowl rubbed with butter, cover with a towel let
dough rise until double in size, about 1 1/2 hours; punch down and turn it
onto a floured board; cut in half and shape each half into a small ball;
shape each ball into a loaf and put in a greased bread pan; cover pans
with a towel and let rise until double in size, about 1 hour; bake in a
preheat- ed 350F oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until golden brown; cool on
a cake rack. Chuck in Pok Sunday 02:37 pm 12/19 C.OZBURN on GEnie
