== Directions ==
# Have all ingredients at room temperature. 
# Heat oven to 200°F and turn off. 
# Prepare yeast with 1 tbsp sugar and 1 cup water, stir and set aside for 10 minutes.
# In a large bowl, sift flour and make a well in the centre.
# Pour butter, oil, salt and eggs into well; then begin adding sugar and water and yeast mixture, working in flour to make a medium-textured dough.
# Turn out on your work area and knead for 15 – 20 minutes, using extra flour if necessary.
# Cut through the dough two or three times with a knife to examine for air holes.
# When these are evident, the dough has been well kneaded.
# Set dough into a large roasting pan, which has been lightly greased.
# Grease top of dough very lightly with butter or oil, so that it will not develop a crust.
# Cover and place in oven until doubled in bulk, punch down and allow to rise again.
# On a lightly oiled surface, dump dough out and cut into sections desired.
# This dough may be braided; or made into regular loaf pans, or large rounds which are customarily used for weddings.
# Place in greased pans, place in oven again to rise for about 1 hour.
# Brush loaves with egg and milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds. 
# Preheat oven to 300°F and bake loaves 1 hour or until done.
