Measure the flour in cups, not lbs., for this recipe.

I'd like to try this recipe but can anyone answer my one question? If I'll be using regular yeast not the dry, is that 1 oz.?

I use 4.5 lbs., which is enough for me to make a Bracha.

• 4 packets dry yeast
• 1 cup very warm water
• 2 tsp sugar
Mix together. Wait for yeast to activate and bubble until double in size.
Then add:
• 3 cups warm water
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 Tbsp salt
• 6 packed cups flour
Mix together with spoon.
Then add:
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup oil
Mix together with spoon.
Then add:
• 6 packed cups flour
Using your hands this time, begin kneading into a good dough, removing from bowl onto clean surface once combined. Continue kneeding.
Prepare:
• ½ cup flour
Sprinkle as needed while kneading dough until just no longer sticky. (But it should not be dry!)
Cover dough with clean towel. Allow to rise 1 hour, punching down 3 times during that hour.
Make Bracha. Take Challah.
Braid into 6 small loaves. Place into greased 2 lb. (size small) loaf pans.
Cover loaves with towel and allow to rise 1 additional hour.
Brush challah with egg wash. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Place Challah in cold oven. Turn heat to 350. Bake for 45 minutes.
Thank you Seraph!

Yes, always.
I do half ww, half white and just put it in how you normally would with your bread machine.
It comes out great!
