Mix 2C flour with 1 t salt (I use 1/2 whole wheat
flour and adjust water)
Scald 1/2 C milk. Add in 1 1/2 C boiling water and
let cool to lukewarm.
Dissolve 1 package yeast in 1/4 C lukewarm water.
Add the dissolved yeast to the milk/water and add to
the dry ingredients, along with 1 T sugar and 1 1/2 T
oil.
Mix well but don't knead.
Cover and let rise until almost doubled in bulk.
Punch down. Form into two sort of flat shapes. Roll
each (sort of jellyroll like) into two loaves.
They'll be a little longer and thinner than average
bread. Cover and let rise again until almost doubled
in bulk, or until a finger indentation doesn't
disappear after a few minutes.
Place on oiled cookie sheet. Place a pie pan with 1/2
" of boiling water on the bottom of the oven.
Bake 15 minutes at 400 and 30 minutes at 350.
You know it's done when it sounds hollow when tapped
on crust.
