WHITE BREAD
Straight Dough Method

1 1/4 cups lukewarm water, divided use
1 cake compressed yeast or 1 package granular yeast
1 teaspoon plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided use
1 cups milk, scalded
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons shortening
7 to 7 1/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour

Dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in 1/4 cup of the lukewarm water. Let stand 10 minutes.

Scald milk. Add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, salt, remaining 1 cup lukewarm water and shortening. Cool to lukewarm.

Add yeast mixture and flour gradually, beating thoroughly after each addition.

Turn dough out on a lightly floured board and knead until smooth and satiny, about 10 minutes. Shape into a ball and place in a greased bowl. Brush top lightly with melted shortening. Cover. Let rise until double in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.

Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven for 45-50 minutes.
