Ingredients

  • 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • ¼ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
  • 6 eggs
  • 6 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

Step 1
Dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in 1/4 cup warm water; set aside.

Step 2
In small bowl, beat eggs until thick.

Step 3
Put flour in large bowl, making a well in the center. Into the well add yeast, eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, melted butter, milk, 1 cup water, and salt. Beat thoroughly to form a soft, smooth dough. Cover, let dough rise until doubled.
