Ingredients
Preparation
1
* In a large mixing bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups of the flour & the yeast. Combine the salt, sugar & warm water. Add the wet mixture to the flour/yeast mixture. Beat at low speed with mixer for 1 minute, scraping the sides of the bowl constantly. Then beat for 3 minutes at high speed. By hand stir in the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface & knead until smooth & elastic, about 8 minutes. Cover & let rest for about 15 minutes. Cut dough into 12 equal portions, shape into smooth balls. Punch a hole into the center of each ball with a floured finger.
