Bread/Pizza Dough


5 C Flour
2 Tbsp Yeast
2/3 C Sugar
1 C milk
1/2 C water
1 egg

Combine 2 cups of flour, the sugar, and the yeast in a bowl

Heat the milk and water for about 2 minutes
Drop the egg into the heated liquids
Add the liquids and egg to the dry mix and beat it for about 2 minutes, until it's smooth

Stir in the remaining 3 cups of flour (sometimes it takes more, sometimes less.  You don't want the dough to be sticky, but you don't want it to be too floury either . . . if that makes sense.)
Knead the dough, let it rise until it's about double in size
