1 ts Cardamom; crushed;(1 to 1
-1/2)
2 tb Crisco
2 tb Margarine; melted
1 tb Salt
1 c Sugar
1/2 ga Milk; heat until just warm
2 pk Dry yeast; dissolved in
1 c Water
8 lb Flour; Approximately
Put all ingredients in large bowl, gradually adding flour, mixing until
ready to knead. Knead 10 minutes and shape into a ball. Put into a
greased bowl, let rise until doubled. Punch down and let rise again.
Then divide into 3 balls, roll out into long strands and braid. Put onto
greased pans, brush with beaten egg, sprinkle with sugar. Let rise again.
Bake at 325 degree oven approximately 1/2 hour. Check for doneness. Be
careful, because even though the top may be dark the inside may not be
done. If the bottom is brown, then the bread should be done.
