Yeast Bread

Ingredients

• 6 quarts flour
• 2 quarts warm water
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 3 tablespoons lard
• 3 pints warm water (additional)

Directions

1. In a deep pan, place the flour and create a hollow in the center.

2. Add 1 quart of warm water, salt, lard, and yeast into the hollow.

3. Gradually mix in enough of the additional warm water to form a soft dough, kneading well.

4. Once smooth and shiny, sprinkle a little flour on top and cover with a thick cloth.

5. Set the pan in a warm place for 4-5 hours or overnight.

6. Knead the dough again, cover, and let it rise once more.
