Eliza's whole wheat bread

grind own white wheat

Step 1: mix in bosch:
8 cups flour
3 1/2 c. water (pretty hot. more then you would think)

Step 2: mix in a measuring bowl
1 C. canola oil
1 cup honey
- mix and add to step 1 along with 1/4 cup dough enhancer

*mix and then allow to sit for 2 hours

Step 3: in the honey/oil bowl,
1 cup very warm almost hot water
4 Tablespoons yeast
-gently mix and dissolve and allow to poof. double or triple in size.

Step 4: add to bosch
2 eggs
4 t. salt
-mix

Step  5 : add to bosch
yeast mix
4 cups flour
-mix

see texture as you go.
 i usually add 3 more cups at this point.
The dough should be sticky only enough to stick a little bit to finger
if you get it too dry, you can add a little more oil/honey.

Step:6: once you have the texture you want, mix for 8 min.

Step 7: remove from bosch and put in oiled bowl.
let sit for 40 min.
punch down
let sit for another 40 min.

Step 8: break into 5 balls.
roll out each ball into a long narrow strip and roll up tightly and place in medium size bread pans. Allow to sit for 45 min to 1 hour.
Bake at 350 for 30 min.
