Ingredients:
1 packet active dry yeast
8 cups lukewarm water
3 cups All-Purpose Flour
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room
temperature
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup instant mashed potato
1/4 cup nonfat dry milk

Instructions
Place the yeast and sugar in a small bowl.
Pour the warm water (not too hot) over the
yeast mixture and let it sit for 15-20 minutes,
or until nice and bubbly.
Mix melted butter, sugar, evaporated
milk and salt into a large mixing bowl. When
your yeast mixture is ready add them
together and mix.
Then add in 1 cup of flour at a time and mix.
When you get to 5 cups of flour in the bowl, add in 1/2
cup more of flour at a time until the dough is
no longer sticking to the sides. You'll know
it's ready when your fingers no longer stick
to the dough.
Then cover the ball of dough and sides of the
bowl with shortening and cover the bowl
with a warm towel. Set by the window and
allow it it rise (approx 2 hours). When it
has risen over the bowl punch it down and
place on a floured service.


Kneed the dough for 2-3 minutes.
Cut dough into two pieces and roll them out
into a rectangle. Roll the dough up and place
into 2 greased bread pans.
Let the bread rise again, and when it looks
like a good loaf of bread place them in the
oven at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. When
the bread is done, coat the top with butter.
