Ingredient -- Preparation Method

package active dry yeast

cups warm water (105º to 115º)

teaspoons salt

tablespoon shortening

cups all-purpose flour (3 1/2 to 4 cups)

tablespoon cornmeal

Cold water

egg white

tablespoons cold water

1/4

1/2

Dissolve yeast in warm water in large mixing bowl. Stir in salt,

shortening and 1 1/2 cups of the flour. Beat with spoon until smooth. Mix

in enough remaining flour (first with spoon, then by hand) to make dough

easy to handle.

Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic,

about 5 minutes. Place in greased bowl; turn greased side up. Cover; let

rise in warm place until double, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. (Dough is ready if

indentation remains when touched.)

Punch down dough; round up and let rise until almost double, about 45

minutes. Punch down; cover and let rest 15 minutes. Sprinkle with

cornmeal. Roll dough into rectangle, 15 × 10 inches. Roll up tightly,

beginning at 15-inch side. Pinch edge firmly to seal. Roll gently back and

forth to taper ends. Place loaf on lightly greased cookie sheet. If

desired, make 1/4-inch slashes across loaf at 2-inch intervals. Brush with

cold water. Let rise about 1 1/2 hours. Brush with cold water.

Heat oven to 375º. Bake 20 minutes. Beat egg white and 2 tablespoons cold

water slightly; brush over loaf. Bake 25 minutes longer. Remove from

cookie sheet; cool on wire rack.
