Recipe: CoolRise White Bread, Raisin Bread and Herb Rolls (Robin Hood Flour, 1966)

Breads - Yeast Breads
COOL RISE WHITE BREAD

2 packages or cakes of Fleischmann's Yeast, active dry or compressed
1/2 cup warm water (105-115 degrees F)
1 3/4 cup warm milk (105-115 degrees F)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt*
3 tablespoons margarine or shortening
5 1/2 to 6 1/2 cups Robin Hood flour, divided use
cooking oil (for brushing dough)

Sprinkle or crumble yeast into 1/2 cup warm water in large bowl. Stir till dissolved.

Add warm milk, sugar, salt and margarine. Stir in 2 cups flour. Beat mixture with rotary beater till smooth.

Add 1 cup more flour, beat vigorously with wooden spoon till smooth - about 150 strokes. Stir in 2 1/2 to 3 cups of remaining flour. Use enough flour to make a soft dough which leaves sides of bowl. Add more if necessary.

Put on a floured board and roll in a ball. Knead 5-10 minutes or until smooth and no longer sticky. Cover with plastic wrap, then a towel. Let rest 20 minutes on board.

Punch down. Divide dough in 2 equal portions. Shape into loaves. Put in greased bread pans. Brush surface of dough with oil. Cover pan loosely with oiled wax paper, then plastic wrap.

Refrigerate 2-24 hours.

WHEN READY TO BAKE:
Remove from refrigerator. Uncover, let stand 10 minutes at room temperature while heating the oven. Puncture any surface bubbles with greased toothpick or metal skewer just before baking.

Bake at 400 degrees F for 30-40 minutes or until done. Bake on lower rack for best results. Remove from pans immediately. Brush tops with margarine, if desired. Cool on racks

*If you use self-rising flour, omit the salt.
