For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal live. John 3:16 (NIV)

1 teaspoon shortening

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sugar

1 pint milk

1/2 cup yeast or 1/2 yeast cake

flour as needed

clean dish towel and bowl with lid

1. In large mixing bowl, place 1 heaping teaspoon shortening, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon sugar.

2. Pour over these 1 pint of milk which has been heated to steaming and stir until the salt and sugar are dissolved, then allow to cool.

3. When lukewarm, add 1/2 cup yeast or 1/2 yeast cake dissolved in a little lukewarm water.

4. Stir in enough flour to make a rather stiff batter. (Add a little flour at a time until you reach the right consistency.)

5. Beat vigorously until the batter is perfectly smooth and full of air bubbles.

6. Cover with a cloth or dish towel and a lid to keep air out and set in a warm place to rise. (about 70 degrees)

7. When the batter doubles its bulk and is light and spongy, stir into it sufficient flour to make a moderately stiff dough (soft as can be handled makes lighter bread).

8. Flour a bread board. Turn out the dough and knead lightly and quickly until it becomes smooth and elastic and will not stick to the hands or board.

9. Return to the bowl, cover as before, and set to rise again.

10. When the dough doubles its bulk, place again on the bread board and separate into two loaves.

11. Mold and turn into well-greased bread pans.

12. Cover, and set to rise again.

13. When the loaves double their original bulk, bake at 325 to 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.

Let cool, remove from pans, slice and serve.
