Ingredients
- 5-3/4 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 package active dry yeast
- 2-1/4 cups milk
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp shortening
- 2 tsp salt
Method
- In large mixing bowl combine 2-1/2 cups of the flour and the yeast. In saucepan heat milk, sugar, shortening, and salt just until warm (115-120 degrees), stirring constantly until shortening almost melts. Add to dry mixture in mixing bowl. Beat on low speed of electric mixer for 1/2 minute, scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat 3 minutes at high speed. By hand, stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes. Shape in a ball.
