- Turn out onto a lightly floured board and cover with an inverted mixing bowl. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes. Knead until smooth and satiny. Place in a lightly greased mixing bowl. Turn the dough to grease the top. Cover with a tea towel and let it rise in a warm place (about 85 degrees) until doubled in bulk (about 1 hour). Punch down and let it rise again till almost doubled (about 30 minutes).
- Turn out onto a lightly floured board. Divide into 3 equal pieces and then divide each of the pieces into 3 equal parts. Shape each into a strip about 16 inches long by rolling the dough between the palms and the board. Braid the 3 strips together into a straight loaf and pinch the ends together. Repeat for the second and third loaves. Lift the braided loaves onto lightly greased baking sheets. Let rise for about 20 minutes. The loaves should be puffy but not doubled in size.
- Bake in a hot oven (400 degrees) for 25 to 30 minutes.
