- 5½ to 6 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 envelopes FLEISCHMANN’S RapidRise Yeast
- 1½ teaspoons salt
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoon butter or margarine
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, and salt.
- Heat water, milk, and butter until very warm (120 to 130°F). Gradually add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest for 10 minutes.
- Divide dough into 4 equal portions; shape each into a ball. Place on greased baking sheet. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- With sharp knife, make 4 ¼-inch deep slashes in crisscross fashion on top of loaves. Bake at 375°F for 25 to 25 minutes or until done.
- Remove from baking sheets; cool on wire rack. Cut off one-third of loaf; hollow out loaf to form ¼-inch thick bowl.
- Fill with soup.
