Time 5h50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2- 4 oz jar(s) chopped pimentos (originally 2 pimento pods, moist canned)
1/2 lb medium cheddar cheese (strong american cheese)
1 1/4 c milk
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp butter
1 pkg active dry yeast (1 cake compressed yeast)
2 1/2 c gold metal flour

Steps:

  • 1. Grate cheese and add drained pimentos. Mix throughly.
  • 2. Scald 1 cup milk in top of double boiler.
  • 3. Make paste of remaining milk and 3 tablespoons flour and add to scalded milk
  • 4. Add sugar and salt and cook until mixture begins to thicken (about 10 minutes)
  • 5. Add butter and 1/2 cup of cheese mixture and stir until melted
  • 6. Remove from heat and cool to 80 degrees
  • 7. Dissolve yeast according to package directions (compressed yeast in 2 tablespoons lukewarm water), add to cooked mixture.
  • 8. Work in all flour with hands and let rise in a greased bowl until double in bulk, 2 hours at 80 degrees. Dough should not feel warm, but rather slightly cool to the touch.
  • 9. Punch down and let rise unti not quite double im bulk, 45 minutes at 80 degrees
  • 10. Punch down again and let rise 15 minutes.
  • 11. Place in well greased bread pan and rise unti 1 1/2 it bulk rather than double, for 30 minutes at 80 degrees, NOT LONGER.
  • 12. Bake for 50 minutes in a 375 Degree oven
  • 13. NOTE: Special care must be taken not to allow bread to rise in pan too long because it falls if it becomes too light. If cheese mixture measures more than 1/2 cup, use extra for something else, i.e. topping on baked potatoes is always in good taste
