-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast -- (2 packets)
2 1/2 cups warm milk -- (110F to 115F)
1/2 cup honey
6 tablespoons butter -- melted , plus
2 tablespoons butter -- reserved for greasing bowl and butter top
1 tablespoon kosher salt
7 cups all-purpose flour
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add yeast, warm milk and honey. Swirl
with your fingers or a spoon to dissolve the yeast. Allow to sit
until the yeast starts to bubble and becomes aromatic, about 5 min.
Add butter and 4 cups of flour, mix on low using dough hook, until
smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (mine takes
the whole 3 additional cups) add salt. Allow to knead for about 5
min. You should have a ball of tacky (not sticky) dough at this point.
Turn onto a floured board; knead about 10 turns. Place in a greased
bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover with a damp cloth and let
rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Punch dough down and shape into two loaves. Place in greased 9" x 5"
loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45-60
min. Preheat oven to 350F for glass and dark pans (375F for light
metal pans). Brush tops with melted butter.
Bake at 350F for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
Cover loosely with foil if top browns too quickly. Remove from pans
and brush tops and sides with melted butter.
Allow breads to cool before slicing. Or at least TRY to wait.
YIELD: 2 Loaves, about 16 slices for total of 2 loaves
