- 1/2 cup [118 mL] water
- 2 tablespoons [2 Esslöffel] cornmeal
- 6 cups bread flour [960 g. Weizenmehl Type 812 or 480 g. Weizenmehl Type 505 + 480 g. Weizenmehl Type 1050]
- 2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast [2x7 g. Trockenhefe]

Preparation
Step 1
1. Warm the milk and water in a small saucepan until very warm (125 degrees F/50 degrees C). Lightly grease two 8x4 inch loaf pans; sprinkle cornmeal inside pans.
2. In a large bowl, mix together 3 cups [480 g.] flour, yeast, sugar, salt and soda. Stir milk into the flour mixture; beat well. Stir in the remaining flour, 1 cup [160 g.] at a time, until a stiff batter is formed. Spoon batter into prepared pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place for until nearly doubled in size, about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
3. Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Remove from pans immediately and cool.
