Ingredients

1 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 packages dry yeast
2 cups water
5 cups flour
3 tablespoons oil

Steps:

1. Mix salt, sugar, yeast and water in a large bowl.
2. Add 3 cups flour & mix well (use large wooden spoon). Add 3 Tbsp. oil and mix well, dough will become very sticky. Add 2 cups flour and mix well (use hands).
3. Let dough rest in bowl about 5-minutes. Then take out and knead on lightly floured board for 5- minutes, until smooth.
4. Grease bowl with 1 tsp. of oil. Put dough in & spin so top & bottom is greased. Cover with plastic wrap & let it raise until doubled. To test if doubled - poke with two fingers into dough, if the holes stay the dough has doubled.
5. Take out dough and divide in half. Knead each part about 2-minutes, shape into round ball & flatten with hands to about a 1" high -7 or 8" diameter loaf. Prick with fork deep into dough all over. Makes 2 pogacas (this should be done on a large cookie sheet that has been greased with shortening). Cover & let raise until double.
6. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven 25 to 30 minutes. Tap bottom, if it sounds hollow its done. Grease top with a little shortening, let cool on rack.
