bread recipe

 

Jewel's White Bread

 

2 pkg. yeast

1/2 cup lukewarm water

1 tbls. sugar

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in water. Cover and let stand for 45 min.

 

1 egg beaten

1/2 cup melted shortening or canola oil

2 cups lukewarm water

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 cup sugar

8 cups flour

add the yeast mixture to the liquid mixture and slowly add the flour mixture using the dough hook on mixer and mix until it is soft and smooth consistency.  Let rise in covered bowl about 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.  Punch down and let rise again.  After the last time it has risen prepare and divide accordingly to eith 3-4 loaf pans or 2 loaf pans and the rest for rolls, cinnamon rolls or cheese rolls.  If you do cinnamon rolls it will make a 8x8 pan and the same with the cheese rolls. The cinnamon rolls you can roll into a rectangle spread with butter sugar cinnamon and brown sugar. Roll up lengthwise and cut into 1" slices.  Same with the cheese rolls, butter parmesan and cheddar cheese and a little dill and parsley. Roll up like the cinnamon rolls and sprinkle more parmesan cheese on top.  Just plain rolls I usually roll little balls and place two in muffin pans and bake.  The times are approximate, the bread will take 20-25 minutes at 350 and not quite that long for the rolls.  Hope this is as much fun for you as it has been for me in the last 40 years.  ( Jewel was my husbands moms name)
