Yeast Bread
Ingredients

3 cakes compressed fresh yeast
2 cup warm water
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 cup shortening
15 cups bread flour
4 cups hot water
3/4 cup white sugar

Way Of Cooking

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand 10 minutes. In a very large bowl, combine hot water, white sugar, salt and shortening. Stir to dissolve shortening; let cool to lukewarm. Add the yeast mixture and 6 cups of flour; beat well. Stir in the remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until
smooth and elastic, about 15 minutes. Lightly oil two large bowls Divide the dough in half and place each half in a bowl; turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until loaves are golden brown and bottoms sound hollow when tapped.

Pre-slice and freeze these loaves. Then simply defrost, heat and rub butter over top for a ‘fresh out of the oven’ taste.
