Mix down. Add 6-8 (or more)white flour until dough pulls away from side.
Kneed or mix 5 to 10 min. Put in pans, let raise until double in bulk. Bake 15 min. 450 degrees then 350 degrees for 15 more min.

To get a soft crust, bake for 45 min at 350 degrees starting in a cold oven. My family enjoys the bread better with the soft crust. It really works.
