1/2 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of oil
1 1/2 cups of warm water
1 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of starter (return the rest to the refrigerator)
6 cups of bread flour, I sometimes need a little more to make a non sticky dough.
mix ingredients and knead, I feed the starter in the morning, then make the dough at night and allow it to rise overnight.
Making the Bread.
after the dough has risen overnight, I punch down and add to 4 small loaf pans and leave out to rise for a few hours to double in size.
bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes until lightly browned.
A fun recipe with the same starter and similar steps is to make a Cinnamon Raisin version.

1/2 a cup of oil
1 cup of the starter
1 teaspoon of salt
1 1/2 cup warm water
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups raisins
