1. 1

   Combine the first four ingredients in a large non metallic bowl and blend well. Cover and let rise until light and bubbly, overnight in a cool kitchen or several hours in a warm kitchen. This is a must do step! Stir down this " sponge" ( light bubbly batter ) and add the 3/4 cup warm water, salt, oil, sugar and half the flour ( start with 3+ cups ) and mix well. Gradually stir in enough remaining flour until you create a soft pliable, non sticky dough, kneading to this consistency and only adding more flour as needed to prevent stickiness. Dough should be soft and smooth yet pliable.

   Then place dough in an oiled bowl, turn to coat, cover and let rise double in a warm place ( about 2 hours ). Punch down dough with floured hands and cut dough in half. Let rest 10 minutes on the counter. Shape into loaves and place into 2 greased 9 x 5x 3 inch loaf pans. Cover and let rise to top of bread pans or light. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 45 mins or until golden and done. remove from pan to finish cooling on racks. Yield 2 loaves.
