1. 1

   Put about 6 cups of flour into a large mixing bowl. Make a well. Dissolve yeast in warm water. Put all ingredients in the well. Mix. Knead dough on floured board until smooth and no longer sticky (about 10 mins.). Add flour as you knead. Put into greased bowl--turn bottom-side up so that top will be greased and not form crust in rising. Cover with a towel and put into oven over pans filled with boiling water to rise for 2 hours.

2. 2

   Take out bread dough from oven and punch down dough. Divide in half. Braid each half for one loaf of bread. Put into greased pans or onto greased cookie sheets. Cover and let rise in over over boiling water-filled pans for 45 mins. Dough will be well above top of pans.
