1 Dissolve yeast and sugar in 1/2 cup warm water.
2 Combine milk, 1/4 cup water, shortening, honey, salt
and wheat flour in food processor or bowl. Mix in yeast
mixture, and let rest 15 minutes. Add white flour, and process
until dough forms a ball. Knead dough by processing an
additional 80 seconds in food processor, or mix and knead by hand
10 minutes. Place the dough in a buttered bowl, and turn
to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rise
for 45 minutes, or until almost doubled.
3 Punch down, and divide dough in half. Roll out each
half, and pound out the bubbles. Form into loaves, and place
in buttered 9x5 inch bread pans. Butter the tops of the
dough, and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in a
warm area until doubled; second rise should take about 30 minutes.
4 Place a small pan of water on the bottom shelf of the
oven. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
5 Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until tops are dark
golden brown. Butter crusts while warm. Slice when cool.
