Mix for 3 minutes to allow the yeast to truly mix into the dough. Add in additional 3 cups of flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add UP TO 1 more cup of flour a little at a time until dough no longer sticks to the side of the mixing bowl while mixing. Continue mixing dough for 5 more minutes.

Cover again, and let rise again. Should take another 45 minutes. In a small bowl beat 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of water together. Brush this mixture on top of each loaf.
