here's to you Julia

ok here is the recipe you've been wanting..

thanks to my sister and julia childs:
400 degrees   20 mins...reduce temp to 400 for 10 more mins..
3 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cup warm water
2 1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cup tepid water
1 pkg of yeast or 1 tbsp

yeast goes into the warm water, let stand for a few minutes
pour lidquid and yeast into flour & salt along with the rest of water
stir together, and let stand for about 15 min.
then knead bread to smoothness..
this is were you can pound it bang it..until you see the dough has a smooth look..
it also has to be like an elastic..
get your frustrations out kids, this bread recipe will do it for you..lol
now form the dough to any shape..round or long like a french stick bread
it will bake as is.. when you take it out of the oven, smother it with butter, let stand to cool
cut & enjoy..
