Garbage Bread

From Kris on the Sonlight Forums:

6 c. flour
2 1/2 pkg yeast
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 c. warm water
1 TBSP cornmeal
1 egg white
1 TBSP water

In a large bowl, combine 2 c. flour, yeast, and salt. Add 2 c. warm water and beat until well mixed. Stir in as much remaining flour as possible. Knead 8-10 minutes by hand or 2-4 minutes with dough hook on mixer. Cover and let rise until doubled. Punch down and let rest 5 minutes.

Divide dough into 2 pieces and roll each piece into a large rectangle. Put favorite pizza toppings in the center and then fold long sides in to cover toppings. Pinch all seams together to seal.

Sprinkle 1 TBSP cornmeal on baking sheet and lay loaves on cornmeal. Cover and let rise 20 minutes. Beat egg white with 1 TBSP water and brush on top of loaves before baking.

Bake at 375 degrees F for 40 minutes.
