  • Summary

    Adapted from my brother-in-law's most wonderful girlfriend, Vicki Roberts.  Notes: Yeast: If you are using active dry yeast, sprinkle it over the warm water with 1 teaspoon of the sugar. Let it stand for 15 minutes; then proceed with the recipe.  Salt: I've been using fine sea salt in my bread recipes recently, but kosher salt is fine, too.  Sugar: As noted in the post above, I tried several batches with lower amounts of sugar, and they just weren't quite the same in texture, taste, and appearance. 

    Ingredients

    • 5 cups (640 grams) all-purpose flour
    • 2 teaspoons (8 grams) instant yeast, see notes above if using active-dry
    • 1.5 teaspoons (9 grams) salt
    • 1/2 cup (110 grams) sugar
    • 1.5 cups (350 grams) warm water
    • 1 tablespoon (15 grams) neutral oil or olive oil
    • 1/2 cup (115 g) baking soda
    • 4 cups hot water
    • Kosher salt
    • 4 tablespoons melted butter
