Amish White Bread
Ingredients:
- 2 cups warm water (around 110°F or 43°C)
- 2/3 cup white sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast (2 packets)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 6 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions:
Activate the Yeast:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
- Sprinkle the yeast over the water-sugar mixture. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy. This indicates that the yeast is active and alive.
