    2 1/2                To 3 cups all-purpose flour

   Makes 1 loaf
   
   Directions: Combine water, sugar and yeast. Stir to
   dissolve yeast and let stand until bubbly, about 5
   minutes.
   
   Fit processor with steel blade.  Measure 2 cups of the
   flour, salt and soda into work bowl.  Process on/off
   to mix.
   
   Add yeast mixture to flour mixture.  Process until
   blended, about 10 seconds.
   
   Spoon sour cream evenly over flour mixture.  Turn on
   processor and add enough of the remaining flour
   through feed tube so dough forms a ball that cleans
   the sides of the bowl.  Process until ball turns
   around bowl about 25 times.
   
   Turn dough onto lightly floured surface.  Shape into a
   ball and place on greased cookie sheet.  Flatten with
   hands into a circle about 8 inches in diameter.  Brush
   dough with oil.  Sprinkle sesame or poppy seeds over
   dough, if desired.  Let stand in warm place until
   doubled, about 1 hour.
   
   Heat oven to 375 F.  Bake until golden, 25 - 30
   minutes.
   
   Remove from cookie sheet.  Cool on wire rack.
