1/2 c Warm water (105-115 degrees) 2 1/2 ts Sugar 2 pk Dry yeast 1 c Boiling water 2 tb Sugar 2 tb Butter or margarine 2 ts Salt 1 c Cold water 6 1/2 All-purpose flour; 6 1/2 to -7 1 Egg; beaten 2 tb Milk Poppy seeds or sesame seeds Recipe by: Southern Living Combine warm water, 2-1/2 teaspoons sugar, and yeast in a small bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Combine boiling water, 2 tablespoons sugar, butter, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir until butter melts. Add cold water; cool to lukewarm (105 degrees to 115 degrees). Stir yeast mixture into water mixture. Add 2-1/2 cups flour. Beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until blended. Gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Let dough stand in mixing bowl 10 minutes. Stir gently for a few seconds; cover. Repeat gentle stirring every 10 minutes for the next 40 minutes. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 3 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 13- x 8-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Roll up jellyroll fashion, starting with long side; pinch ends and seam to seal. Place each loaf, seam side down, on a separate greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, about 40 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Make diagonal slits about 1/4-inch deep down the length of loaves using a sharp knife.
