   Combine water with yeast and sugar in 6 quart bowl. Let stand 1 minute then stir until yeast and sugar are dissolved. Add flour and stir until consistency of thick batter. You may need a bit more white ap flour. Continue stirring for 100 strokes until strands of gluten come off spoon when you press back of spoon against bowl. Scrape down sides of bowl and cover with damp towel or plastic wrap and put in moderately warm draft free place until bubbly and increased in volume (74-80 degrees). This poolish can be refrigerated overnight. Transfer poolish to 6 quart bowl. Add rye flour, caraway, oil, salt and sugar. Stir with wooden spoon until well combined. Add enough white flour to make thick mass that is difficult to stir. Turn out onto well floured surface. Knead 15-17 minutes. Dough is ready when small amount pulled from mass springs back quickly.
