Recipe of the Week!

Whomever said, "Man cannot live on bread alone," .....was wrong. Bread in any of it's forms is a wondrous thing. While making bread could be rated as 'advanced amateur;' the results include a gloriously smelling home, some loaves to freeze for a later time, and hopefully the praise of your entire family for having something so delicious to enjoy with any meal.

MOM'S BREAD

4 cups warm water
3 packages yeast
3 teaspoons salt
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
12 cups flour

Dissolve yeast, salt and sugar in water; add oil. Mix in flour.

Knead, put in bowl and let rise about 30 - 45 minutes, or double in size. Punch down and make into rolls or loaves, and let rise again.

Bake 350 -375 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes.

Yield: 3 dozen rolls or 6 loaves.
