| BREAD – Mom, Esther Knicely’s Recipe | 6 Cups Flour - (fill each cup to the top of a 2 cup measuring cup) in mixing bowl. Add additional flour as needed when kneading. 3 Cups water – (each cup, fill to the top of a 1 cup measuring cup) 3/4 Tablespoon Sugar 1/4 Tablespoon Salt 1 (Full, rounded a little) Tablespoon dry yeast (or 1 packet) 2 Tablespoons Melted Butter Make a “pond” and then put in 3 cups water Sprinkle Sugar, Salt, Yeast and melted butter on top. Let stand until yeast is dissolved and floating on top. Mix well until you can knead the dough. Pour dough on floured surface and knead adding flour until dough is not sticky to the hands and the dough has an elastic feel. (At least 15 minutes, I do ½ hour.) Put dough back in original pan to rise to at least twice the size of the original size. (I let it rise for about 40 minutes.) (Grease pan and bread dough with butter or Crisco.) Knead the dough again for a couple of minutes and let rise again to double size. (I let it rise about 25-30 minutes.) Separate dough into loaves. Knead each loaf and put in bread pan. Again grease loves with butter or Crisco. (Stick loafs with a fork to get the air bubbles out.) Let rise again probably about ½ - ¾ hour. Bake at 420° for about 18 minutes. Take out of oven and again grease the baked loaves with butter. | Delete |
