5 cups warm water
2 Tbsp. yeast
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup oil
2 Tbsp. salt
12-14 cups white all purpose flour

Combine water, yeast and sugar and let sit for 10 minutes or until yeast is bubbly.

Add oil, salt, and 3 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed (if in a bread mixer). Begin adding the rest of the flour 1 cup at a time until 10 cups total. Mix on high speed and continue to add the flour 1 cup at a time until the dough begins to clean the sides of the bowl and pulls away toward the middle. Do not add more that 14 cups of flour. Knead for 6 minutes.

Divide dough into 12 pieces. Make round balls. Place on large cookie sheet and let rise until doubled in size. Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes. Cool. Cut top out and dig out bread, leaving a hollowed out bread bowl. Fill with your favorite cream soup or chowder.
