Insert dough hooks and mix together all dry ingredients except 1 cup of

2-3 minutes. Continue to mix another 2-3 minutes. Gradually add the
remaining flour to form a soft, slightly tacky dough ball, mixing for
3-5 minutes. Add shortening and mix for 3-4 minutes. Continue kneading
for another 10 minutes. Perform dough stretch test.
Spray large bowl with a non-stick spray. Place dough in bowl and turn to
