      Title: Jill St. John's French Bread
 Categories: Breads, French, Celebrity
      Yield: 2 Loaves
 
  1 1/2    Env active dry yeast
      2 tb Sugar
  1 1/2 c  Very warm water
  3 1/2 c  All-purpose flour (more if
           - desired
      2 ts Salt
 
  Soften yeast with 1 tsp. sugar in 1/2 cup very warm
  water. ("Very warm" warm feels comfortably warm when
  run over wrist.) Let yeast-water mixture stand 54 min,
  or until doubled in bulk and foamy. In food processor,
  with motor running, add flour, salt, remaining 1 tsp.
  sugar and yeast mixture.
  
  Blend and slowly add very warm water up to 1 cup, or
  until dough forms a smooth ball. Turn out dough on a
  lightly floured board or countertop. Knead only a
  couple of turns; divide in two and shape into loaves.
  Place in greased baguette pans. Cover with plastic
  wrap; let rise in warm place away from drafts 45 min,
  or until bulk doubles.
  
  Bake in a 450-|F/232-|C oven 15 minutes, with shallow
  pan of water in bottom of the oven. Bread is done when
  hitting it with a knife gives a hollow ring.
  
  NOTE: Jill Cautions, "Most of the kneading is done in
  the food processor; therefore, knead only a couple of
  turns as directed."
