Total Time: 1 hr 35 mins Preparation Time: 1 hr Cook Time: 35 mins

Ingredients

• 3 cups hot water
• 1 cup lard or 1 cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons salt
• 2 1/2 cups hot water
• 1 tablespoon liquid lecithin
• 1/2 cup vital wheat gluten
• 7 cups whole wheat flour
• 1/4 cup instant dry yeast
• 1/4 cup dough enhancer
• 4 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 -4 cups whole wheat flour

Recipe

• 1 place first 5 ingredients in bosch mixer bowl (using the dough hook), and mix well on speed 1.
• 2 add next 5 ingredients, being careful to add the yeast last. mix on speed 1 until well-mixed. let sit for 10 minutes.
• 3 add dough enhancer and mix on speed one. add 4 cups of flour 1 cup at a time, mixing as you go.
• 4 add 2 cups flour 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing on speed 1. after this, mix on speed 2.
• 5 continue to add flour until sides of bowl are clean, and the dough is not too sticky.
• 6 after you have finished adding flour, continue mixing (kneading) on speed 2 for 5 - 7 minutes.
• 7 preheat oven to 200 degrees for 5 minutes. remove dough from bowl onto greased surface and form into loaves (i usually get 6 24-ounce loaves, with a few ounces left over for little rolls). place loaves in greased loaf pans (non-stick spray works best), cover with tea towels, and let rise in preheated (but turned off) oven for 30 - 45 minutes.
• 8 remove towels and bake at 325 degrees (you don't need to preheat -- just turn the oven to 325 as soon as the rising is done) for 35 minutes (i have "speed bake" on my oven and that's how long i cook them. it may take a bit longer in a conventional oven).
• 9 remove loaves from pan and cool on wire racks. slice when cool.
