FABULOUSLY EASY WHITE BREAD
An amazingly delicious and simple recipe that anyone can make. It comes out beautifully and requires very little skill. It is so rewarding to make, and especially so when people come back for seconds. I got this recipe from The Fannie Farmer Cookbook and made a few minor alterations. Bon Appetit!

Steps:
- Mix shortening, salt, and sugar in a large bowl for about 2 minutes.
- Do not worry if the shortening does not completely melt, but make a good attempt.
- Add the hot milk and water.
- Let cool to lukewarm.
- In a small bowl, mix yeast with 1/4 cup water.
- Let stand 5 minutes.
- Add 3 cups flour and yeast all at once and mix until well blended.
- Add 2 more cups of flour, one cup at a time, mixing until blended well.
- Pour dough onto lightly floured board.
- (It will not actually"pour," so scrape out remnants with a spatula or potlicker.) Knead for two minutes with floured hands.
- Let rest for ten minutes.
- Dough will be very sticky.
- Adding enough of the remaining flour to keep the dough from sticking, knead the dough until smooth, elastic, and pliable (about 8-10 minutes.) Place the dough in a large, greased bowl, turning once to grease.
- Cover and allow to rise in a warm spot for about an hour or until doubled in bulk.
- Punch dough down and let rise to previous size and perhaps a little bigger (about 30-45 minutes.) Split dough into two halves.
- Place each half in a loaf pan and cover.
- Allow to rise until doubled in bulk (anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 1/2 hours) Bake in 425 degree oven for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven and cover in a cloth.
- Change oven heat to 375 and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven and immediately remove from pan.
- Knock lightly on the bottom of the loaf.
- If a hollow sound is made, bread is done.
- If not, return to the pan and bake 5-15 minutes.
- Allow to cool for 30 minutes before slicing.
- Notes for great crusts: For a hard, crisp crust, brush the top with cold water three or four times while baking.
- For a soft crust, brush with cold milk or melted butter before baking.
- For a shiny crust, brush a mixture of egg yolk and one tbsp milk on bread before baking.

Steps:
- Mix 500g strong white flour, 2 tsp salt and a 7g sachet of fast-action yeast in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the centre, then add 3 tbsp olive oil and 300ml water, and mix well. If the dough seems a little stiff, add another 1-2 tbsp water and mix well.
- Tip onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for around 10 mins.
- Once the dough is satin-smooth, place it in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with cling film. Leave to rise for 1 hour until doubled in size or place in the fridge overnight.
- Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Knock back the dough (punch the air out and pull the dough in on itself) then gently mould the dough into a ball.
- Place it on the baking parchment to prove for a further hour until doubled in size.
- Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7.
- Dust the loaf with some extra flour and cut a cross about 6cm long into the top of the loaf with a sharp knife.

EXCELLENT WHITE BREAD
This straightforward loaf is the white bread of your dreams, and its fluffy slices make for evenly browned toast. The 1/3-cup of sugar makes this mildly sweet and perfect for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, but you can cut it down to 2 tablespoons if you'd rather have something more neutral in flavor. You do need some sugar, however, to feed the yeast and ensure a lofty rise. This recipe makes two loaves, one for now, and one for the freezer or to share with a lucky friend.

Steps:
- In a large electric mixer bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm milk. Add the remaining warm milk, the sugar, the salt, the butter and the eggs. Add 5 cups flour and mix with paddle attachment until smooth, about 2 minutes. Switch to hook attachment and knead on low speed, adding more flour if necessary until dough is stiff and slightly tacky, about 10 minutes.
- Grease a large bowl with butter and turn dough out into the bowl. Flip over dough so greased side is up, cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and set in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Generously butter two 9-x-5 loaf pans.
- When dough has doubled in size, turn it out onto floured surface and knead for 3 minutes. Return to greased bowl, cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.
- Press down dough with your hand to expel the air. Divide dough in half and place each half into a loaf pan. Brush tops of loaves with remaining melted butter.
- Cover and let rise until dough is just above the tops of pans, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake bread for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, or until loaves sound hollow when tapped, the tops are brown and the internal temperatures are 200 degrees. Remove loaves from pans and let cool on wire racks.
