    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: ChaSamsmom

    List of Ingredients




    2 pkgs. quick rising active dry yeast
    1 C. lukewarm water
    1 tsp. sugar
    2 C. scalded whole milk
    4 tsp. salt
    1/4 C. sugar
    About 9 C. sifted all purpose flour
    1/4 C. melted butter

    Recipe



    Step 1. Scald the whole milk. The purpose of scalding is to destroy enzymes in the milk, thus protecting the yeast and the dough.

    Step 2. Start the action of the yeast (before combining any of the other ingredients)by putting the yeast in the lukewarm water with 1 tsp. of sugar for 10 minutes.

    Step 3. The scalded milk, salt, & ¼ C. sugar is then put in a large bowl and cooled until lukewarm.

    Step 4. Stir yeast mixture into lukewarm liquid. If the yeast is overheated at any time,it will be injured or destroyed; if it is to cold, it will act very slowly.

    Step 5. Add about half of the sifted flour (4 cups) and beat until smooth with bread
    hooks.

    Step 6. Beat in cooled melted butter.

    Step 7. Add enough flour to make soft dough. The softer the dough can be kept without sticking to either the board or your hands, the lighter and more tender the
    bread will be when baked.

    Step 8. Roll the dough into a ball, coat the outside of the bread with a light layer of butter. Put the dough back into the bowl.

    Step 9. Let dough rise to double the bulk, allowing the dough to rest will cause it to stiffen, making it easier to handle. Punch dough down, divide into 3 equal amounts

    Step 10. Knead each loaf about 5 minutes and form into loaves. Lightly coat each loaf with butter. Place into 3 buttered bread pans. Let rise to almost double bulk
    or 2 to 3” above the top of the pans.

    Step 11. Bake in a 400* for 15 minutes, reduce heat to 375* and bake for about 25 more minutes or until golden brown.

    Step 12. Remove from oven and lightly coat with butter. Let bread cool in pans for 15 minutes, remove to bread racks and cool completely.
    NOTE: Tap the top if it sounds hollow it is done. cool slightlty, butter & eat warm!!
