2 T sugar

Let poof.

Add 3 cups flour, 1 T salt, 2 T oil and mix.

Add 3 more cups flour and mix.

Let it sit for 10 minutes.

Put on floured surface and shape into 2 long french loaves.

Let rise for 35-40 minutes.

Cover with beaten egg and make 3 slashes in each loaf.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Try to let it cool before you cut it...

Devour.
