1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon butter

Dissolve yeast in warm water in warmed mixer
bowl. Add salt, butter, and flour. Attach bowl
and PowerKnead™ Spiral Dough Hook to mixer.
Turn to Speed 2 and mix about 1 minute, or until
well blended. Knead on Speed 2 about 2 minutes
longer. Dough will be sticky.
Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease
top. Cover. Let rise in warm place, free from
draft, about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.
Punch dough down and divide in half. Roll each
half into 12 x 15" rectangle. Roll dough tightly,
from longest side, tapering ends if desired. Place
loaves on greased baking sheets that have been
dusted with cornmeal. Cover. Let rise in warm
place, free from draft, about 1 hour, or until
doubled in bulk.
With sharp knife, make 4 diagonal cuts on top of
each loaf. Bake at 450°F for 25 minutes. Remove
from oven. Beat egg white and water together
with a fork. Brush each loaf with egg mixture.
Return to oven and bake 5 to 10 minutes longer.
Remove from baking sheets immediately and
cool on wire racks.
