    Printed from AllRecipes.com, Submitted by Holly

3 (.25 ounce) packages active
    dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110 degrees
    F/45 degrees C)
8 cups bread flour
1-1/2 cups white sugar
2 teaspoons salt
6 egg yolks
1 cup margarine, melted
1-1/2 cups warm milk
1 cup golden raisins
2 egg whites, beaten

Directions

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, 
about 10 minutes.

In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar and salt. Make a well in the 
center of the flour and pour in the yeast mixture, egg yolks, margarine and 
warm milk. Stir until a soft dough is formed. Turn it out onto a lightly 
floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 6 minutes. Lightly 
oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. 
Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in 
volume, about 1 hour.

Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in 
the raisins. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. 
Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cover the 
loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 
minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350F (175C).

Brush the risen loaves with egg whites. Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 45 
minutes, until golden brown.
