 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2      envelopes     yeast
    6      cups          flour  -- 5 for microwave
    1      tablespoon    sugar
    2      teaspoons     salt
    2      cups          milk
      1/4  teaspoon      baking soda
      1/2  cup           water
                         cornmeal
 
 Combine 3 cups flour, yeast, sugar, salt, and soda.  Heat liquids until 
 very
 warm (120-130 F).  Add to dry mixture; beat well.  Stir in rest of flour 
 to
 make a stiff batter.  Spoon into 2 loaf pans that have been greased and
 sprinkled with cornmeal.  Cover; let rise in warm place for 45 minutess.
 Bake at 400 F for 25 minutes.  Remove from pans immediately and cool.
 
 Or: microwave each loaf on High for 6 minutes 30 seconds.   Allow to rest 
 5
 minutes before removing from pans.
 
 Notes:
 
 The bread won't brown if you bake it in a microwave, so don't be tempted
 to bake it longer than the specified time.  It's still delicious!
 
 My favorite way to eat this bread is in thick slices lightly broiled with
 lots of butter (or margarine) and cinnamon-sugar mixture.
