2 c Milk
2 tb Butter
2 tb Sugar
2 ts Salt
1 pk Dry quick-rising yeast
3 Eggs
4 c Flour
Makes 2 loaves
Scald the milk, or bring it almost to a simmer, and add the butter,
sugar, and salt. Let cool until tepid or just warm. Dissolve the
yeast in 1/4 cup of tepid water. Using your electric mixer, if you
have a powerful one, beat the eggs and then add teh milk mixture, the
yeast water, and finally the flour. Beat until very smooth, about 5
minutes.
Leave the dough in the mixing bowl and allow it to rise for one half
hour. Beat it down with the mixer just for a moment and then allow it
to rise again. Do this a total of 3 times and then put the dough in
2 large greased bread pans. Allow to rise to double in bulk and then
bake in a preheated 375 F oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour.; The bread
should be light and have a nice crust.
