Instructions for Psomi: Greek Homemeade White Bread

As you can see by previous Greek bread recipes, the Greek Housewives made plenty of bread. These recipes are directly from Greece and are in fairly large quantity.However this and other bread recipes can easily be halved for the smaller hosehold. All yeast breads freeze well too. Crumble yeast in the warm water and let dissolve. Beat the margarine until light and mix into the flour and yeast mixture. Then stir in the oil, sugar, salt, cinnamon, eggs if using ( a lighter baked good ) and the milk, adding " more if needed" to produce a kneadable nonsticky dough. Knead smooth and elastic. Cover in a large bowl and let rise double. Punch down and let rise double again. Shape into 5 loaves and place in pans. Beat egg and milk together and brush loaves. Slash top of each bread. Bake 400 for 15 minutes and then 375 for 30 to 40 minutes or until golden and done. Recipe can be halved easily. From Geminis MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
