Directions:
- White Bread-makes two regular loaves
- Scald 2 cups milk
- In a bowl combine 2 Tablespoons shortening, sugar and salt.
- Pour the hot milk over and let sit until it has cooled to warm.
- Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water.
- Add flour to the milk mixture to make a thick batter.
- Beat well and add yeast mixture.
- Beat well again.
- Add flour working in until the mixture becomes stiff,
- Knead on a lightly floured board until the dough becomes smooth and elastic, maybe 8 -10 minutes, adding flour as needed
- Place in a greased or buttered bowl, turning once to distribute the shortening.
- Let stand in a warm place covered with a towell.
- Let rise until double. Punch down and divide into two loaves.
- Place dough in two greased pans smoothing top and let rise again until double.
- Bake in a 425 degree oven for about 45 minutes or until bown.
- If you thump the bottom of the bread pan and it sounds hollow it is surely done.
- Whole Wheat Variation: (my favorite)
- Substitute 1/3 cup molasses for the sugar
- Substitute bacon fat for shortening
- Use about 2 cups whole wheat plus whatever you need of the white all purpose flour.
- You can also add some (1/4 cup) oatmeal or corn meal or other grain to either of these breads for a little change.
- This is a super basic recipe, and it seems rather vague but it always turns out..
