One of our favorite breads to eat with a bowl full of soup...
2 cups warm water
1 Tablespoon yeast
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 Tablespoon oil
2 tsp salt
4 1/2 cups - 5 cups of flour
1/4 cup wheat gluten
Proof water, yeast, and sugar in mixing bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix/knead the dough for 10 minutes. Form dough into a ball and rub oil all around it. Let it double in size. Shape into two loaves. Place on a pan sprayed with Pam and sprinkled with cornmeal. Make slits in the top of the loaf with a sharp knife. Let rise to double in size a second time. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place loaves in oven and bake for 30 minutes. For a crustier crust, spray with water 2-3 times during baking cycle.
