- 1 cup warm water 110 degrees, warm to touch
- 3 tbsp. sugar
- 2 tbsp. (packages) of dry yeast
Place water, sugar and yeast in 3 cup bowl or measuring cup, stir.

Place water, sugar and shortening in very large bowl, mix and wait
until shortening has melted.

Add cold water slowly, checking the temperature, should be warm to the touch.
Change the temperature of the water if necessary. Remember if it is too hot or
too cold the yeast will not rise.
- 10 cups flour
Add 3 of the cups of flour and stir or beat with electric beaters.
Continue adding flour until it is no longer reasonable to use the beaters.
Pour out on table and begin needing in the remainder of the flour. Need
the dough and add flour for about 10 minutes or until it is no longer sticky.
Add more flour if necessary but 10 cups in total is usually all you will need.
Warm up oven to about 150, place dough in bowl, place warm wet cloth over dough and place bowl in the oven. Turn off
the oven. Wait until dough has risen to twice the original volume.
