This is a wonderful bread, especially toasted in the morning. It makes great sandwiches and has a mild flavor. Ingredients:
3 cups milk (scalded) |
2 teaspoons salt |
2/3 cup cornmeal |
2/3 cup honey |
3 tablespoons butter |
1 (1/4 ounce) package dry yeast |
1/4 cup warm water |
6 1/2-7 cups flour |
Directions:
1. Mix the yeast and the warm water together to proof.
2. In a separate bowl put the milk, salt, cornmeal, honey, and butter (make sure the butter melts in the hot milk); mix well.
3. Add 3 cups of the flour and mix well.
4. Add the proofed yeast and mix well.
5. Add the rest of the flour gradually, mixing to make a good dough.
6. Knead for about 10 minutes or 100 times.
7. Put in oiled bowl and let rise till double.
8. Punch down and rise again till double.
9. Divide in half and place in two greased bread pans and rise again.
10. Bake at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes.
