For a richer flavor, try using melted butter instead of shortening. Make sure your water is not too hot, or it will kill the yeast. Aim for 110 degrees F (45 degrees C). If your dough is too sticky to handle, lightly flour your hands before shaping it. This bread is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
