NANNIE RUBY'S DAGO BREAD
My mother-in-law showed me how to make this bread before her son and I were married. She learned it from her mother-in-law who was an immigrant from Sicily. Our family tradition is to have this bread on Christmas Eve. We take a slice of bread and put olive oil, salt and pepper on it and eat it. We also cook homemade Italian sausage and wrap it in a slice of Nannie's bread.

Steps:
- Mix flour, yeast and salt.
- Dissolve honey in one cup warm water.
- Add two cups warm water and olive oil to honey mixture.
- Add liquid to dry ingredients and mix by hand or KitchenAid mixer using dough hook.
- Knead dough about 5 minutes. Place in bowl with a little olive oil in the bottom. Turn dough to coat with oil. Place in warm, draft free area to rise(about 50 min).
- Take dough out of bowl and knead a second time about 2 min on a floured surface. Place back in bowl, turning dough to coat with oil. Let rise a second time(about 30 min).
- Knead third time - gently about 2 minute
- Divide dough into four parts. Smear butter on work surface. Knead each dough ball with fingertips on buttered surface. Each ball of dough should be rolled up like a jellyroll. I add butter to the work surface as needed.
- Place dough into greased pans. We use PAM to grease the pans.
- Let dough rise again about 30 minutes. I always cover the loaves with a dish cloth while they rise.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minute Lower to 300 degrees and bake 10 minute longer.
- Brush tops of loaves with slightly beaten egg whites.
