Ingredients

  • Vegetable oil, for oiling bowl
  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 5 cups warm (110 degrees) water
  • 10 to 13 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
  • 1/2 cup dark-brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon salt

Directions

  1. Lightly oil a large bowl; set aside. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in the water. Add 5 cups flour, and stir to combine. Stir in the sugar and salt. Add remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, stirring until a sticky dough forms. When the dough becomes too stiff to stir, turn it out onto a well-floured work surface. Knead, incorporating only as much flour as needed to make a smooth and elastic dough, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to prepared bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled in bulk, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

    I have never made bread before. Can I make this the night before and put them in the fridge? If so, how long should I leave them out once I take it out of the fridge to reach the room temperature or to the point where I can use it? Thank you!! :)
