White Bread
(For sandwiches)
2 cups warm water
2/3 cup sugar
1 ½ TBSP. yeast
1 ½ tsp. salt
¼ cup vegetable oil
6 cups bread flour
In bowl of stand mixer, add water and
sugar. Let dissolve, then sprinkle with yeast and stir with fork. Let yeast
mixture sit for 5 minutes or until the yeast starts to foam.
Add salt and oil to yeast mixture. Attach dough hook and slowly add in flour 1cup
at a time. Knead with dough hook for 2
minutes or until the dough looks smooth.
Place in a well oiled bowl and cover with a wet cloth or a piece of
plastic wrap sprayed with cooking spray. Let raise for 1 hour, or until
doubled.
Punch down dough, and knead for 2
minutes and divided dough in half. Place in well oiled 5x9 bread pans. Rise
until dough rises 1” above the pan. (I had to wait about another hour)
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Cool in the pans for 10 minutes, and then remove. Let cool 20 -30 minutes
before slicing (If you can wait!!).
