4 teaspoons dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
1/2 cup sugar, divided
1 1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees F)
5 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup baking soda
4 cups hot water
salt
melted butter
DIRECTIONS:
Dissolve yeast and 3 tsp sugar in warm water. Let stand 10 minutes.
In large mixing bowl, mix flour, 1/2 cup sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center. Add yeast mixture and oil to dry ingredients. Mix well. If dry, add several tablespoons water.
Knead dough 7-8 minutes until elastic. Place in oiled bowl and cover. Let rise in a warm draft free place, until double, about 1 hour.
