Bread loaf

5 to 5 ½ cups bread flour All purpose flour may be substituted, however, bread flour has a higher content of gluten which will give this bread its amazing chewy texture. Do yourself a favor and use bread flour!

1 tsp sugar

2 ¼ tsp regular or quick active dry yeast I always use SAF-instant

2 cups very warm water If water is hot it will kill your yeast. I like to think of the temperature I would bathe a baby in. Very warm but not hot!

2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil

2 tsp salt
