    List of Ingredients




    Mennonite White Bread


    1 pk Yeast, dry
    1/2 c -- Water, warm
    1/3 c Sugar
    2 ts Salt
    2 c -- Water, warm
    2 1/2 tb Shortening -- melted
    6 c Flour -- more as needed to 7c

    Recipe





    Dissolve yeast in the 1/2 cup water. In a large bowl, combine the
    sugar,
    salt, water and shortening. Add the yeast mixture. Gradually add flour
    to
    form a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a floured board and knead until
    smooth. Place dough in a greased bowl; turn to grease the top. Cover
    with
    a clean tea towel and let rise until doubled, about two hours.

    Punch dough down; then divide in half and form loaves. Place in
    previously
    greased bread pans. Prick the tops with a fork. Let rise until higher
    than
    the pans (about two hours).

    Bake in a 375 F. oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes. Butter
    the tops of the loaves. Place pans on their sides until bread loosens.
    Remove loaves and cool completely on racks.
