  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      envelopes     yeast
   6      cups          flour  -- 5 for microwave
   1      tablespoon    sugar
   2      teaspoons     salt
   2      cups          milk
     1/4  teaspoon      baking soda
     1/2  cup           water
                        cornmeal

Combine 3 cups flour, yeast, sugar, salt, and soda.  Heat liquids until 
very
warm (120-130 F).  Add to dry mixture; beat well.  Stir in rest of flour 
to
make a stiff batter.  Spoon into 2 loaf pans that have been greased and
sprinkled with cornmeal.  Cover; let rise in warm place for 45 minutess.
Bake at 400 F for 25 minutes.  Remove from pans immediately and cool.

Or: microwave each loaf on High for 6 minutes 30 seconds.   Allow to rest 
5
minutes before removing from pans.

Notes:

The bread won't brown if you bake it in a microwave, so don't be tempted
to bake it longer than the specified time.  It's still delicious!

My favorite way to eat this bread is in thick slices lightly broiled with
lots of butter (or margarine) and cinnamon-sugar mixture.
