Made my favorite today. Love this bread. White bread , that is.

Remember me and whole wheat don't get along. This is a Taste of Home

recipe I've had since forever. Never fails. I give one loaf away we can't eat it all . He's not much of a bread lover, so, I have to make a meal of it. LOL

What a magnificent thing of beauty!!!!!!! Did you do it by hand or use a machine? I love bread---

Hand.

Only use bread machine in winter. That thing you have to be exact and precise can't vary. Makes me nervous LOL

COUNTRY WHITE BREAD

2 PKG'S ACTIVE DRY YEAST

2 CUPS WARM WATER 115' DEGREES

1/2 C. WHITE SUGAR

1 TB. SALT (USE YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT HERE) LOL

2 EGGS

1/4 C. VEG OIL

6 CUPS OF FLOUR

(I USE KING ARTHUR BREAD FLOUR) RECIPE SAYS 6 1/2 CUPS TO 7 CUPS. I USED 6 FOR THIS ONE YOU HAVE TO GO BY FEEL. I LIKE TO KEEP THE DOUGH STICKY AND THEN THROW IT IN A KING ARTHUR BREAD RAISING BUCKET. GREASED BUCKET THEN I SPRAY A LITTLE CRISCO SPRAY ON TOP AND COVER IN DRAFT FREE WARM AREA.

I'M IN TX. SO MY HOUSE IS GOOD AND HOT LOL RAISES IN NO TIME

HAVEN'T TURNED THE A/C ON YET

IN LARGE MIXING BOWL,DISSOLVE YEAST IN WATER. ADD SUGAR,SALT,EGGS,OIL AND 3 CUPS OF THE FLOUR. BEAT TILL SMOOTH. STIR IN ENOUGH REMAINING FLOUR TO FORM A SOFT DOUGH. TURN INTO FLOURED SURFACE ( I GOT THE GRANITE SURFACE LOVE THAT TO ROLL OUT DOUGHS ON) KNEAD A FEW MINUTES. PLACE IN GREASED BOWL TURNING ONCE TO GREASE TOP. COVER AND LET RISE IN WARM PLACE FOR 1 HR. TILL DOUBLED.

DIVIDE IN HALF AND SHAPE INTO LOAVES.PLACE IN 2 GREASED LOAF PANS 9X5 X3 INCH LOAF PANS ( I LOVE THE USA BRAND THAT B&B SELLS I HAD TO ORDER ONLINE) THE WHITE ONE IN PICTURE IS A OLD ONE I'VE HAD FOR YRS. CEREMIC , I THINK IT IS, CORNING WARE/FRENCH WHITE.) LET RISE FOR ANOTHER HR TILL IT'S HIGH OVER LOAF PAN.

PREHEAT OVEN TO 375' GENTLY LIFT THE PANS AND GENTLY PUT PANS IN PREHEATED OVEN. ANY LITTLE MOVEMENT WILL MAKE THE BREAD DEFLATE. NOT GOOD. LOL

BAKE AT 375 FOR 25-30 MINUTES. WHEN YOU DIVIDE THE DOUGH TAKE MORE PAINS THEN I DID TO GET EQUAL AMOUNTS OF DOUGH

TO PUT IN LOAF PANS. LOL I'M NOT MARTHA STEWART PERFECTIONIST IT WILL GET ATE. LOL

Baking bread is on my bucket list for winter.

Summer i'm working in the garden.

Hey it's only flour and water, right???

What could go wrong!

I love olive oil & rosemary focaccia.

I have Martha Stewart's recipe.

Giving you a standing ovation! Well done!

SharkE — Sat, 21 Jul 2018 19:30:15 GMT

well, and eggs, oil,sugar,yeast,salt LOL

Believe me I've had some bread made by others that I wouldn't throw to the birds. Not to say I'm high muck a muck, but, mine is soft and tender and little bit of a crunch on the edges.

I went to a comm mkt and thought think I'll buy that gal's bread save me time and mess. uh , no,won't do that again. That was the most tasteless,flat bread I've ever ate. If your a widower and never had any better you might think it was OK. To each his own.
